I doubt that the person who did this chart ever listened to Morphine. Imho they sound like right out of a funeral.

Thank you. Morphine is unquestionably in the Horny/Sad zone.
frog_brawler@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Pretty sure the chart was made by someone born after 2000.
Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 2 days ago
Yeah, I love Morphine, and “happy” is quite possibly the last adjective I would use to describe them. Some of it’s kind of playful maybe.
selokichtli@lemmy.ml 2 days ago
It’s one problem that both angry and sad are opposed to happy, ate least for me. While the opposite to horny is frigid, and in my experience, depressed.
superniceperson@sh.itjust.works 2 days ago
You can be happy and angry at the same time, i.e. your girlfriend saying you have the biggest sick amongst all your friends; but its much harder to be happy and sad at the same time, that takes someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, of you.

Leaning to walk again, learning to talk again, make my way back home when I learn to fly, it’s times like these you learn to live again, it’s times like these you learn to love again. Guy just loves learning.

I’m not saying that you can’t have some specific cocktail of unfamiliar-together feelings. Who am I to say what anyone can feel? I’m saying they are conceptually opposed, but hey, happy cake day or happy angry cake day, whatever you want!

Pulp needs to move up a bit. If you don’t think they do angry you have not been paying attention
Corngood@lemmy.ml 3 days ago
The axes make no sense for Pulp who are equally angry, sad, and horny.
Also not technically Pulp, but it turns out cunts are still running the world.
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 days ago
and happy on occasion. Rare, but there. Dave’s last summer / a good 70% of we love life
Sektor@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Foo Fighers in the eye of blandness.
Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
I would have put Ween there, not because they’re bland but because they’re everything.
cabron_offsets@lemmy.world 3 days ago
NIN is off the chart somewhere far beyond the upper right corner.
Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 3 days ago
RATM makes me horny
Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 days ago
Literally wanting to fuck the machine to death.
BreadOven@lemmy.world 2 days ago
No Primus?
0100110100110011@lemm.ee 2 days ago
That’s the sarcasm belt.
LengAwaits@lemmy.world 2 days ago
What about Ween?
BreadOven@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Or at least their own heading. Like how winamp just to say their genre was “Primus”.
PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 3 days ago
Many of these bands are misplaced.
Gin Blossoms is sad. NIN is incredibly angry. Mazzy Star is a little bit horny. Deftones is pretty happy. Radiohead is at least a little horny.
derfunkatron@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Weezer is a tough call because most of the time they’re sad because they’re horny.
My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Surprised to not see Sugar Ray or Everclear, unless I’m blind.
Mustakrakish@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Sublime should definitely be more towards center, unless you’ve never even tried to listen to the lyrics.
Delphia@lemmy.world 3 days ago
The Offspring just pingpong all over the fucking place really.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 days ago
Sometimes even in the same song.

horny should be a perpendicular axis. you can be very angry and horny.
curiousaur@reddthat.com 3 days ago
No Doubt is more angry than horny? What?
humanspiral@lemmy.ca 3 days ago
least horny band ever! aparently. Gwen victorian image to blame.

*cries metallic tears into a bed of guns and roses’
GoatTnder@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Nine Inch Nails isn’t nearly that horny. Hell, even Closer is angrier than it is horny.
troyunrau@lemmy.ca 3 days ago
Starfucker and other songs would be considered quite horny. But it’s always more “rage sex” than sexy sex. So I mostly agree. Except when I don’t ;)
GoatTnder@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Starfuckers is about media execs fucking over artists. Nothing at all about sex.
AtariDump@lemmy.world 3 days ago
…So I mostly agree. Except when I don’t
Why did I read this is Douglas Renholm’s voice?
aeronmelon@lemmy.world 3 days ago
The Cranberries are way hornier than that.

Title: 90s bands
My brain: Morbid Angel, Obituary, Sepultura, Corrosion of Conformity, Eyehategod, Dissection, among others.
arken@lemmy.world 3 days ago
My brain: 4/6 of those are 80s bands
SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 days ago
Some those did get their start in the 80s but all of them hit their peak in the 90s.
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 days ago
Beautiful work OP and I love the discussion and debate it brought about … excellent!
ickplant@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Can’t take credit for it as I shamelessly stole it. But it’s generating exactly the kind of discussion I was hoping for!
Manifish_Destiny@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Missing queens of the stone age in the bottom right.
redwattlebird@lemmings.world 3 days ago
Hmm. Missing Everclear.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 days ago
Just like that Father of Mine…
redwattlebird@lemmings.world 3 days ago
Tell me where has he been?
roguetrick@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Green Day was peak sad and horny before dookie.
FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 days ago
Yeah. Really questioning how they got labelled as one of the happiest bands here. But tbh you could never expect one person to make something like this accurately.
roguetrick@lemmy.world 3 days ago
In the 00s I can see you saying angry but upbeat. In the 90s though?
FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
Someone explain the sarcasm belt to me and why Radiohead is sad sarcastic
AstridWipenaugh@lemmy.world 3 days ago
I’m not sure sarcasm is the right word. I’d say it’s more “self awareness”. Cake is a good example. They’re not serious and their music is almost a parody of pop-alt-rock at the time. Radiohead is borderline self-aware; they’re sad and they know it, but not so sad as to be “serious” about it like Dashboard Confessional.
S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 days ago
It only works if you believe they put a man on the moon…
spankmonkey@lemmy.world 3 days ago
No
brokenlcd@feddit.it 3 days ago
Kind of curious where KMFDM would fit. I would think top for sure. But i feel like most of their songs would make them swing left and right like a metronome. Example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ3lsxONdiw

Kill motherfucking Depeche mode
SPRUNT@lemmy.world 3 days ago
KMFDM is a drug against war!
exixx@lemmy.world 3 days ago
This one’s most appropriate for today’s times. My most listened song for 3 years running
eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 days ago
Where would They Might Be Giants and Barenaked Ladies be on this? BNL, despite the name, isn’t horny.
dryfter@lemm.ee 3 days ago
I was about to make a comment about how blatantly stupid this chart is leaving out many bands (Nirvana, Tool, Pantera, etc) and getting alignments completely fucked up (NIN, No Doubt, L7…). Then I looked at the community it was posted in.
Well played @ickplant@lemmy.world. Well played. 👏🏻
faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 3 days ago
Nirvana is on the blue line by Sad, Tool is above it in the pink/purple

I’m apparently blind as a bat 🤦🏻♂️
karl_chungus@lemm.ee 3 days ago
Where the fuck is Ween tho
mydoomlessaccount@infosec.pub 3 days ago
Ween is a giant circle around the entire graph that’s too large to be depicted here
Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 days ago
Ween signifies more than these four basic emotions. They’ve even created new emotions just to write songs about.
Nangijala@feddit.dk 2 days ago
I would but deftones in horny tbh. Especially on the Queen of the Damned soundtrack. Everyone was horny on that soundtrack.
