Why does everyone listen to crap?
Does anyone actually listen to any good music?
He sees the faces of the dead, Guts are strewn from the children, Splintered bones poke through skin, Gratification through castration, Roasting parts for consumption.

And what makes you think you do not?

This is ironic because I came to this forum originally with a slightly less extreme version of the same view. And boy, how wrong I was...
What is good music? What is bad music? How can you call your taste in music "good" if you operate on such banalities?
I do believe that many, many people here listen to the right music for the right reasons. And many who do not. But even then, perhaps they're still quite satisfied.
It is, of course, a proven fact that 90% of people out there are really not receptive to music per se, or at least their view of music is very limited. But even then, virtually anyone can developed a good acquired taste for music.
The fundamental question to ask a self-professed fan of music is "why". So, why?

The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

That's a wonderfully simplistic definition.Ted Bundy wrote:when I say "good" I mean any bands with talent
Except it's too broad. Do clarify if you claim any credibility here.

Personally, going by this broad definition of "talent", my top pick would be a band which isn't even my favorite - Gentle Giant. That is, "talent" in the broadest sense of musical ability possible. But that's still too broad
