    Smashing pumpkins in the happy half???

    • Valmond@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      And NIN not in the angry?

      source
      • Venator@lemmy.nz ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        The problem is they put horny and angry at opposite ends but NIN are both horny and angry.

        They have only heard one NIN song and it shows.

      Yeah, seems a bit misplaced. They were always a fairly bleak and moody band… But then Billy Corgan started losing his hair, bought a synthesizer, and entered his Nosferatu era.

      Yeah, no kidding one of the most depressing songs ever: youtu.be/T69Yk6IccL0 – The end is the Beginning is the End (Batman and Robin soundtrack)

      Also one of the best tracks ever.

      I think they’re just generally placed in the center white area, meaning they are equally angry, horny, sad and happy. Everyone in the center white is equally part of all four no matter where in the white they were placed.

      It wouldn’t be easy to list everyone in the center and say that if their name was slightly to one side or not meant they were more angry, happy, horny or sad. I think that’s why OP just made a huge white area in the center.

      Someone only heard “Today” and never listened to a single other track before making this meme.

      source
      • CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Also even “Today” is not a happy song lol. From Wikipedia:

        After the release and minor success of the band’s debut album, Gish, the Smashing Pumpkins were being hyped as “the next Nirvana”. However, the band was experiencing several difficulties at the time. Drummer Jimmy Chamberlin was undergoing an increasingly severe addiction to heroin; James Iha and D’arcy Wretzky had recently broken up their romantic relationship; and Billy Corgan had become depressed to the point of contemplating suicide and plagued by writer’s block. Corgan recalled that “after the first album, I became completely suicidal. It was an eight-month depression, give or take a month, and I was pretty suicidal for about two or three months.” … The dark, ironic lyrics of “Today”, describing a day when Corgan was feeling depressed and suicidal, contrast with the instrumentation. Michael Snyder of the San Francisco Chronicle said that the song is “downright pretty as rock ballads go” but that “Corgan manages to convey the exhilaration and tragic release he seeks.” Corgan told Rolling Stone that “I was really suicidal … I just thought it was funny to write a song that said today is the greatest day of your life because it can’t get any worse.” Corgan later compared writing the lyrics of “Today” and “Disarm” to “ripping [his] guts out”.

    While there’s a lot of disagreement on where bands belong, I think Rage Against the Machine as the pinnacle of Angry Music is one we can all agree with.

    Wouldn’t Deftones be in the horny section?

      This is exactly the kind of discussion I’d like on this post.

        Deftones are VERY horny

        source
    • FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      This is what I came here to ask, I specifically was looking for Deftones in the horny section and when I didn’t see it I assumed Deftones was excluded.

      Imagine my surprise when it’s all the way on the angry side.

      All the songs are Chino moaning into the mic, make it make sense.

      source
    • atomicorange@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Deftones and NIN need to switch places.

  • Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I’m assuming every ska band is so far off the left edge we can’t see them.

      If your band has a brass section, jump immediately to horny.

    • TheLowestStone@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Also Morphine, Offspring, Tool, and Veruca Tools, Blink 182 is way more happy and horny than Sublime. Weezer belongs where the Flaming Lips are and RHCP is hornier than both of them.

      This chart is awful.

      Sure you can. All of the bands I the middle of the y-axis are equally angry and horny.

    can’t be angry and horny at the same time, that’s discriminatory to incel music /s

      Angry & horny = Limp Bizkit

        Big Naked. Nine in Nails. Marylin Manson. Our Lady Peace, Alanis Morissette. There’s quite a few that could be both. But, alas, this is only a two axis graphic ;)

        Also, how to tell I grew up on Canadian radio…

    Is there a way to put NIN into both extremes of Angry and Horny?

    Uh, they put sublime under happy because it’s Ska-like. I don’t think whoever made this chart ever listened to any of the words.

    What I got is arguably their happiest song, and it’s *painfully obvious" it’s him reminding himself that life can be enjoyed, is worth living, even when everything is shit.

    Angry vs horny as a single axis…

    NIN seems to have an angry tone. March of pigs, wish, hand that feeds, head like a hole. There is one sad balad as a cover. There is one horny lyric song, that also happens to be on the happier than sad side.

    The entire chart is wrong. There’s no “happy” alignment at all in 90’s bands. Replace “happy” with “heroin” and it makes a lot more sense.
