    Where would They Might Be Giants and Barenaked Ladies be on this? BNL, despite the name, isn’t horny.

    90s NIN was very angry… then Trent went weird.

    horny should be a perpendicular axis. you can be very angry and horny.

    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. 👏🏻

      Nirvana is on the blue line by Sad, Tool is above it in the pink/purple

    This otherwise insightful chart suffers from the lack of NOFX.

    Only ones I’ve ever heard are Radiohead and Rage against the Machine, sincerely, genZ.
    Anyway are yall telling me there are no bands that are both horny and angry?

      If your curious, this chart is full of great artists.

      Every band on this graphic is amazing. You’ve just been given an assignment to give each and every one a listen.

      I was probably wrong about Radiohead. Maybe I mixed them up with radioactive by imagine dragons?

      Check them out. Some are great (Cranberries for example). I also guess you’ll know more than you think.

        Nirvana In Utero is my favorite record of all time.

        They aren’t my favorite band, but my god that record hits me right where I need it.

    Pulp needs to move up a bit. If you don’t think they do angry you have not been paying attention

    source
    • Corngood@lemmy.ml ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ 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.

    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.

  • arken@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I’m guessing the reason that The Cure (debut LP from 1979) is on this list is that it was made by an american, that first heard them because of “Friday I’m in Love”?

    So you can’t be Angry and Horny?!?!

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

      Ween is a giant circle around the entire graph that’s too large to be depicted here

      source
      • Kolanaki@pawb.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Ween signifies more than these four basic emotions. They’ve even created new emotions just to write songs about.

    Nirvana is both quite horny AND quite angry more than neither.

      Or Korn

      source
    • TheLowestStone@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ 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.

      source
      • Ledivin@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Idk, Tool feels about right? Maybe slightly more angry and slightly less sad

        I was gonna say how is the Offspring sad!?

    Sad music is the best. Deftones are way more horny than angry.

    source
  • humanspiral@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    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.

    source
    • ouRKaoS@lemmy.today ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      If you want the angriest horny song ever, it’s definitely NIN - Closer

      source
      • humanspiral@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        In OP’s perpective, placing NIN where it is is entirely based on Closer, and nothing else. Hurt could be sad without being horny.

        It is possible to view Closer as horny and happy. The infactucation bringing him closer to god, is a successful antidote to the sadness he expresses them curing. Also the horniness infatuation in itself is a pursuit of happiness. IMO, if you see the cure for your sadness right before you, you cannot be/no longer sad. So, as it resonates to me, closer is happy and horny, not sad, despite lyrical evidence of sadness.

        source
    • TheLowestStone@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      The angry/horny axis is silly. Go listen to Stinkfist by Tool and tell me a song can’t be both.

      source
    • humanspiral@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      also, hand that feeds and head like a hole have angry sound and lyrics, but happy dance beat/groove.

      source
    • surewhynotlem@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      That’s why they left Manson off the list. That band was just horngry.

      source
      • rumba@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        I went to NIN, Manson opened and Jim Rose Circus sideshow ran in between.

        I had shitty seats in the back corner of my mid-sized venue. There were parents all around me in the cheap seats. There were no kids with them, but they were obviously looking for their kids.

        The main floor was a sea of 90% under-aged goth chicks smoking.

        The parents were all solemn and quiet.

        Lights went down

        Spot came up, the screeching cheer of 10k girls pierced my eardums. Manson walked out on stage

        MANSON: “HOW MANY 14 YEAR OLD GIRLS WANT TO FUCK ME”

        The GA seats double down on screaming.

        All the parents went from disinterested concern to outright anger.

    Green Day was peak sad and horny before dookie.

    • FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ 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.

        In the 00s I can see you saying angry but upbeat. In the 90s though?

    Title: 90s bands

    My brain: Morbid Angel, Obituary, Sepultura, Corrosion of Conformity, Eyehategod, Dissection, among others.

    source

      My brain: 4/6 of those are 80s bands

      • SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Some those did get their start in the 80s but all of them hit their peak in the 90s.

    Someone explain the sarcasm belt to me and why Radiohead is sad sarcastic

    source
    • AstridWipenaugh@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ 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.

    Morphine should be as far to the right as they are to the left. Not sure what the original creator of the chart was thinking.
