Ok, I´ll define better: Modern Metal/Punk/Rock and the related stuff minus some special exceptions. Some old songs that belong to genres that were predecessors to the genres I mentioned are actually quite good.

btw: New flag? Since when?

Implying "modern" doesn't help, because the period in which something is made doesn't determine quality. Hybris by Änglagård is better than Steely Dan's Aja, but Genesis's Selling England by the Pound beats most other things.

Right, but I didn´t want to judge them by quality. I rather wanted to express that I dislike some genres because I don´t enjoy their 'sound' (<- Well hard to describe what I mean, but I think you can imagine what I want to tell you).

The old flag was quite more... distinct. :D

Regarding the different freedoms: For this, I have to tell you something about the 'style' of the Universal Union. Most occupied races become mindless slaves and can make no decisions on their own.

Therefore: Low personal/political freedoms; Good industry represented by high economic freedoms

Hey, everyone!

I think I just came up with a fitting term for contemporary pop music... You ready for this? You ready?

Here goes...

SPAM POP. You know... Because there's way too much of it, it all sounds the same, and it's always trying to make money off of us.

Do you mean screamo as in the type of hardcore punk, or just anything with harsh vocals?

Country includes Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton. Do you really hate all those people?

"Gangster/ghetto rap" includes Biggie, Tupac, Ice Cube, NWA and Snoop Dogg. Do you really hate all those people?

Also, I don't get why anyone would hate dubstep. I can get someone not liking it, but hating it? Why?
