the entirety of St. Anger by Metallica was essentially 9/11 for metalheads and I’d argue it indirectly led to shitty “metal in name only” bands like Sleep Token

I just like to forget it exists. The local rock station has a hard on for All Within My Hands. It's not a horrible song. But I had enough of James feelings in Some Kind Of Monster. It was embarrassing to watch. I couldn't even laugh. Because he's truly sad to see like that. He doesn't do social media anymore because he can't take negative comments. I know his childhood was messed up and all. But this guy, for all his wealth and fame, has some serious emotional problems and will probably never be truly happy.

"All about the bass" by Meghan Trainor was an objectively terrible song. Just fat-glorifying and skinny-shaming under the guise of so-called ~~body positivity~~

I used to seethe whenever I heard that song. No treble? Stick figure? Skinny bitches?? Also the way she brags about "boys like MY booty!" as if male sexual attention is the prize, and then she gaslights you with the "haha I'm just playing, every inch of you is perfect" like fuck off Meghan you just called me a bitch!

My fat friends were obsessed with this song back in 2014/2015 and we legit got into fights over it lol

And the fact that she's now a "skinny bitch" just goes to show how full of shit she was when she wrote the song

At the time it was released I couldn't understand a damn word because I was ESL kid so I didn't have to comprehend utter sheer stupidity
 
weird feminists insist that “it’s my party I can cry if I want to” by Leslie Gore was some kind of feminist mantra.

So she hosts a party on her own property, she sees her boyfriend holding the hand of another woman, and cries. That’s a normal reaction to betrayal. It’s not some powerful message. It’s a typical song about heartbreak.

 
Born in the U.S.A. comes to mind. It's not some "America! Fuck Yeah!" anthem. Yet that's how so many people use it. If you listen to the lyrics it's really depressing. It's about a guy who gets shipped off to Vietnam and comes home to no job and no future. Just despair. It's people not really paying attention to the lyrics close enough. Like thinking The One I Love from REM is a love song. Yeah. I don't think you'd call someone you truly love a "simple prop to occupy my time".

How was that song socially damaging though? It simply told the truth regarding the callous treatment of veterans.
 
"Happy Birthday" It's the most socially-pressured song ever written. I'm pushed into singing it multiple times a year, my ENTIRE LIFE, because I don't want to be the only person not singing to Grandma/Dad/someone's baby or whoever.

Fuck Happy Birthday. I bet 85 percent of people hate it by the time they've turned 40.
 
I don't know how people listen to trash music in current year. Just hit next or ignore. I guess of all the things I've heard against my will I'd pick. "Human" by Rag'n'Bone. Not because the song it's self carries that bad of a message but because everyone interprets it as a song about feeling good about being a piece of shit.
I guess by the same metric Ode to Joy from Beethoven's 9th would count because it's the song of the EU and represents the vile humanism that has reduced the soul of Europe to interchangeable economic agents.

Also "Pretender" by the Foo Fighters. It's the quintessential Millennial cuck song. It's about imagining yourself being cool and standing up to the man. An exercise in self delusion.

The really bad thing is when James would roll into the studio at noon and leave at 4 everyday and tell the rest of the band they couldn't work on anything if he wasn't around because of his therapy or whatever his issues were. Seriously? I get it, he had to fix him, but it's out of line to expect everyone else to just show up, drink coffee, and do nothing all day because he couldn't get his head straight. Does Kirk not get to work on a solo he has in his head? Does Lars not get to suck at drums except for those four hours a day?
 
Enya’s entire career. It inspired every art teacher to use her music as “motivation”, making art class a sedative experience.
