Comment on What do all the subgenres of music mean? How does anyone make sense of them?

This is what happens when you pay too much attention to any kind of taxonomy. Even scientific and rigorous taxonomy disintegrates into subjectivity when you look too close.
The idea of precisely labeling and categorizing things appears to be a human desire imposed upon an uncooperative universe.

In this case, I think it’s not so much human desire but the need of music journalists to fill column inches.
