Rotten Egg

In my humble opinion, this video represents everything that is wrong with music right now:



1) Emotionless lyrics in both topic and melody. (Attention: Hipster nonsense!)

2) Ridiculous costumes without any overarching theme. I'm not usually against costumes for the most part, but doesn't it seem like these "musicians" are having little to no fun at all, despite the costumes? (Hipster nonsense.)

3) Even more retarded dance moves--once again, emotionless, not conveying any story or worthwhile artistic aim. (Hipster nonsense.)

4) A myriad of noise that doesn't seem to logically mesh in any way. Eg: horn section, keyboards, 12 year old Asian clarinet player. (Hipster...)

5) A really talented female artist (Nedelle Torrisi of Cryptacize) marginalized by being delegated to crappy background vocals. It doesn't help that she's wearing a short, somewhat sexualized dress. (The Entire World As We Know It.)

Let me know what you guys think, especially if you disagree. For some reason this video made me feel as if I smelled a horrible fart and found out that there is no Santa Clause all at the same time...
