5 Strangest Music Genre I Have Come Across

I love listening to different music, such as Spanish, some foreign like German and exploring different subgenres of rock, metal, and pop. When you search for different music, you tend to find new and interesting types of music, some are weird, interesting, or gross. During my hunt for different music, I have come across some weird genres and so, here are some that I will share.

1) Gorenoise


A genre made from the combination of goregrind and noise. Goregrind for those that don't know is a subgenre of metal made from grindcore and death metal. As a result, goregrind uses the influence of those two genres and have pitch-shifted vocals and lyrical content of medical procedures, accidents, and gore. Goregrind is as weird as it sounds, featuring vocals that sound like a toilet flushing when in reality is pitch-shifted vocals, drum machine and elements of programmed beats. Songs from this genre tend to be short as in 1 minute or some can even be 30 seconds.

2) Noise


It is what the name of the genre says. Here is an example of the noise genre, specifically harsh noise which is noise but to the extreme as random sounds hit the listener. Hijokaidan is one of the top noise groups in Japan. In the song noises such as distorted vocals are heard in the song and random noises that are loud.

3) Pirate Metal


This is one of the fun sounding metal genre I have listened to. Incorporating pirate lyrical content, catchy hooks and chorus and pirate stage clothes. This song is definitely representing the genre itself by one of the best pirate metal band.

4) Nintendocore


Nintendocore is a genre that has 8-bit music that is reminiscent of the NES and SNES game songs. Using 8-bit music, synthesizers, keyboards and combining it with rock elements such as punk or hardcore, you get this genre of music.

5) Unblack Metal


Unblack metal is the opposite of black metal. For those that don't know black metal is a genre that has satanic, evil lyrics, an infamous genre for being associated with church burnings in Norway during 1991-1995 during the early years of Norwegian black metal. Unblack metal is black metal but without satanic, diabolical evil lyrics. Instead, religious and Bible texts are used for lyrics. It's basically black metal for Christians or for people who don't want the satanical lyrics and themes of black metal.

These were some of the weirdest music genres I have come across. Some of these are interesting like pirate metal, which I enjoyed and to some extent, Nintendocore. I hope that you found these interesting or found it gross.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
