Obviously there is no scientific evidence to support my assertions. Just like there is probably no absolute evidence to suggest the Shaggs are bad music.
Being a musical obsessive I have heard an astonishing arrays of musics. Like most others who love music, I feel I can spot a forgery most of the time. Music at its heart must be honest. It must be an attempt to express one;s innermost emotions and feelings. It is is virtually unanimously agree upon by experienced lovers that certain bands are not creating honest music. Marron 5, Nickleback, Creed, Linkin Park, Lil John, Madonna, Puddle of Mudd, and the like are certainly among those artists who are creating music for defferent reasons than why music is considered art. The reasons I consider music holy.
Can I prove it? No more than I can prove John Coltrane is the antithesis of this music. You just know.
Now, I can talk at some lengths about basic evidence of why certains artists suck. Bad lyrics, fake voice affectations, mediocre and unoriginal songwriting, but that is also obvious.
Finally, how do I know that Nickleback are making fake music? Because nobody who likes music actually likes Nickleback.
