Top 10 Countries that Make the Worst Music
India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country (with over 1.2 billion people), and the most populous democracy in the world. Its capital is New Delhi. Some other major cities are Mumbai, Chennai, and Ahemdabad. The most spoken languages are Hindi and English, but there are 22 official Indian languages. Indian music is something so many of us have grown up with but as a youngster I didn't know that its an industry that hates people like me, a Muslim, or a Pakistani. Until today, Bollywood puts subliminal messages in their movies which strengthens the already-strong hatred India has towards Pakistanis. In Raazi, for example, or taking it back to old days, you have Border. India has also plagiarised countless Pakistani songs/music. Recently, one of bollywood's music companies got a copyright claim order from a famous Pakistani qawwali group. Which is something that Pakistanis should have done from day one, at least once it had become possible to do so. India has lost my respect and I'm not just talking about plagiarism.
Sure A R Rahman and few others have produced mellifluous tunes a few times but really, mainstream Indian music sucks! I just can't understand how can people like and dance to songs that have been blatantly and horribly copied from the works of western artists. Songs nowadays are terrible, using auto tunes and themed on bars and alcohol or figures of women. Independent artists never thrived in Indian music industry and music directors are doing horrible job in their Bollywood film songs (which is the only source of Indian music most of the times). Putting aside music from 60s-70s and some A R Rahman flicks, the mainstream Indian music has always been a pain to the ear drums and it's nowadays "half Hindi-half English" lyrics beyond logic!
Fails at live singing I.e. copies Coke Studio concept from Pakistan but cannot make it more successful because India is about mainstream more than smaller scale talent. Proceeds to do Tseries Mixtape which is just about lip synching popular Bollywood songs so nothing original there. Everything is prerecorded then they just have to make an act on stage and get millions of views.
India has stubbornly resisted assimilating into the worlds' musical culture. Traditionally their music involves no harmony, (in other words, chord-changes), and even when they attempt more modern styles, sophisticated chord-progressions are consistently lacking.
Canada is a country in North America that is next to the United States, and it's the 2nd largest country in the world by area (size is 9.985 million km²). This country has 10 provinces, and 3 territories. Canada became a dominion on July 1, 1867. Its 10 provinces are: Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, Alberta, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. Its 3 territories are: Yukon, Northwest territories, and Nunavut. Toronto, Quebec City, Montreal, Vancouver, Winnipeg, St. John's, and Fredericton are major cities in the country. Canada's capital city, Ottawa, is in the southeastern province of Ontario, near the city of Montreal ...read more. Let's face it, Canada...a lot of what comes out of your country just doesn't quite make it. There's certainly a few really interesting, original acts up there...but their efforts get outweighed by the MASSIVE spew of either overrated or second-string acts that have emerged from the Great White North over many years. Maybe if your government gave up on its weird 'canadian content' regulations so that more outside influence would get in, then there'd be a lot more cross-breeding of ideas going on, instead of the Canadian music scene being a self-enforced backwater/circle-jerk.
Its strange how Canada beats america on the list of best music and worst music, these voters have no idea who or why there voting for a country, PS I voted for Canada because they never brought a music artist that changed the world in a good way all they gave us was Justin Bieber and nickelback, celine dion isn't bad though.
Most of the music that comes out of Canada is produced in the U.S and written by Americans, if you went to Canada you would here what we listen to. You probably wouldn't know the bands.
This must be at top because of Justin Bieber, a Canadian disgrace. The UK should be no. 2. Although they had some of the greatest bands ever, Queen, The Beatles, etc. they had One Direction.
South Korea, officially the Republic of Korea (ROK), is a country in East Asia, constituting the southern part of the Korean Peninsula and sharing a land border with North Korea. Its western border is formed by the Yellow Sea, while its eastern border is defined by the Sea of Japan. South Korea claims to be the sole legitimate government of the entire peninsula and adjacent islands. It has a population of 51.75 million, of which roughly half live in the Seoul Capital Area, the fifth largest metropolis in the world. Other major cities include Incheon, Busan, and Daegu. ...read more. I don't think it's fair to generalize the whole country for making crappy pop music because I'm pretty sure South Korea has great singers and bands that are overshadowed by their manufactured pop music. I used to listen to kpop when Baby V.O.X were still around (Yes, I'm older than most kpop fans today). Then, I got tired of it because the groups produced the same, mediocre crap over and over again, except with new faces in the scene. It's like if Steven Moffat wrote songs for them or something. I'm kidding, but in the kpop industry, looks come first before talent. I know most labels will deny it, but it's mostly true. I don't see girls who look like Susan Boyle in kpop. Even if they hired one, they will pressure diets and surgeries on her the most and it's sad.
Most kpop fans I've encountered today are vain. Even more so than jpop fans. Why? It's because they valued their appearances more than their music. Most I've seen on social media are unhappy with themselves because they ...more
The hell? OKAY As a kpop fan myself I think this is pretty much bull. Sure some members look the same but not exactly. When I first got into kpop I was like holy sh- they look very similar but after a while you see they don't look the same at all. And I am kinda embarrassed for the people who know NOTHING about kpop but choose to still comment on this saying that kpop is bad, stupid, or worse. Like forreal. Gtfo if you don't like it. *drops mic* - fellow army
Fawk, I am South Korean and I hate Kpop, a lot. It's basically bunch of immature guys/girls singing about love every single damn time! But... there is still good music in South Korea, too. Check out bands like Crash, Oathean, Method, Mahatma, Downhell, etc (metal), NoBrain (punk rock), and rappers like Beenzino and San E.
I don't care much about K Pop or PSY. The one that brings up my hate the most is Dok2, a Korean rapper. The thing that aggravates me is that the producers of his music are American, which brings my hate because Dok2 sucks at rapping.
Sri Lanka, officially the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka and known from the beginning of British colonial rule until 1972 as Ceylon, is an island country in South Asia near south-east India. Sri Lankan Music is good for Murderers, Rapists, Gangsters, Drug Addicts, Sexual deviants, Lunatics, Psychopaths and Idiots! You can't even call it 3rd Class because 3rd Class Music is a million times better than Sri Lankan Music. You need to call it 4th Class or the Class of the Hell!
Shiver me timbers! How can Sri Lanka be in this list? Ah coconuts! I like my country' s music. Billions of blistering barnecles! Sri Lanka should be in the best music. Barnecles! Sri Lankan music is good for good people
Crackers! Sri Lanka has best music
Because W.D Amaradeva died last wednesday that does'ent mean it has worst music because Sri Lankan Music is a traditional music.
Japan is an island country in East Asia in the Pacific Ocean. It lies off the eastern coast of the Asia Mainland (east of China, Korea, Russia) and stretching from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea and near Taiwan in the southwest.Japan has a huge capital city called Tokyo, other cities in Japan include Fukuoka, Hiroshima, Osaka, Nagoya and Sendai.

I will not be surprised if half of the votes come from ignorant people who think cheesy anime openings defines Japanese music.
Anime music is not real Japanese music! Listen to the REAL stuff like J-rock (and I mean good j-rock, not crappy oshare stuff). Real, not-anime-related Japanese music is a blessing!
I think anime music is annoying and I hate it, though I kinda like anime but not the music, real j pop is much better.
Very very annoying vocals, incorporating unwanted high pitched wailing. Also a very annoying language in general
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea, also known as North Korea, is a country in Eastern Asia. Its capital is Pyongyang. It is currently ruled by the Juche leader Kim Jong-Un, after inheriting the title from his father, Kim Jong-Il, who in turn inherited it from his father, Kim Il-Sung.North Korea's population as of February 18th, 2017 is 25,360,273.

One would have to listen to what plays on National Radio in N. Korea to hear their stuff. So bad its amazing. Such cloying tripe is hard on the ears!
I didn't know North Korea had music. But then again, there's probably no such thing as "music" here anyways.
The music in North Korea is the best music in the world. Most of the people who heard it are dead. It has a lot of mixing sounds like bang, bang, bang, and BOOM! Some lost their hearings because, they cannot resist the beauty of its sound. Some are shouting and running and screaming... No wonder. The very best of its kind. Better try it so you would know.
North korea has NO MUSIC if you don't count those brainwash materials.
Spain, or the Kingdom of Spain, is a country in southwestern Europe with parts of territory in the Atlantic Ocean and across the Mediterranean Sea. The largest part of Spain is situated on the Iberian Peninsula; its territory also includes the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea, the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, and several minor overseas territories also scattered along the Moroccan coast of the Alboran Sea. The country's mainland is bordered to the south by Gibraltar; to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea; to the north by France, Andorra and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west by Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean. Ok. One, flamenco is awesome.
Two, Spain is home to two of the greatest metal bands: Mägo de Oz (folk metal; has the best album of the decade, Ira Dei) and Stravaganzza (gothic/symphonic metal; has one of the best singers of all time, Leo Jimenez).
I gotta say, I hate my country's music. It's everyrthing Flamenco or Pop. I wish it had some variety. And even that variety is small!
Sorry Spain even though your language is fun when I speak it, I hate your music.
Terrible Party music. Music without soul
Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic located in North America. The country is located between the U.S. and Central America, and is known for its Pacific and Gulf of Mexico beaches and its diverse landscape of mountains, deserts, and jungles. It's nothing against Mexico, but I have some bad memories associated with Mexican music. Now whenever I hear it, I remember the times of being alone, surrounded by people who have no manners, and don't care one way or another for you because your white. It was a very lonely time for me. And when I thought I found somebody, they turn around and backstab me. All of this while they listened to Mexican music.
My issue with traditional Mexican music, whether it be mariachi, Banda, Norteño, or this new bs that's around, is that its very generic. The majority of the songs sound the same and very uninspired. There are thousands of songs that have the same harmony and bassline, whether they be in 1/2 polka, 3/4 Val's ranchero, or 4/4 bolero and so on. The instrumentation isn't the problem, the fact that there's not much variety in the musical aspect is. They have to copy elements from past songs. When a new song sounds like I've heard it before, that's a problem. There are a handful of catchy songs, but the rest feel very uninspired, generic and not memorable. The lyrics are also very mediocre. Even though there are a lot of love songs that contain a nice message, you can tell that a lot of these weren't well thought out and use very oversimplistic sentences just for the sake of filling the song. In my opinion, a song can be about a frikin tree, but can have very strong songwriting. A song can ...more
I grew up listening to Banda Sinaloense music in the streets (yes, the genre is called that. ), and seriously, almost nobody in my family can't stand it. It sticks in your head in a bad way, if you know what I mean. And if you actually understand the lyrics, you'll wish you didn't actually hear them. (Can't they compose anything that isn't drug dealing?! ) But Mexico does have some good artists! Well, I'm done with my rant.
Cats fighting is closer to music than Banda and norteno garbage. It's like they only know two notes. I'm not even slightly surprised that Nazis influenced it, because it's downright evil nonce noise.
Germany was formally united in 1871 under the initiative of Bismarck with King Wilhelm of Prussia as emperor. The previous 'Holy Roman Empire', basically a continuation of the empire of Charlemagne/Karl der Grosse was dissolved in 1806.Some territory was lost after World War 1 and a lot more after World War 2, basically started by Hitler's Nazi dictatorship. Then the Soviets kept their zone - the 'DDR', East Germany, separate with a wall through the middle of Berlin, until 1990 when the country was reunited. ...read more.
German "pop" music is cringy, nasty, shallow and plain out horrid. Every song sounds the same, and the language is just not fit for art in any way. There are some exceptions of good german contemporary music, like Kraftwerk, Rammstein or some former GDR bands, but they - in no way - make up for the hideous monstrosity that is german pop music.
While I gotta say, that germany had some awesome classical composers, it makes the terrible modern "music" even more shameful.
Not only do they make cringy, terrible, soulless, stale, recycled pop, dubstep, techno crap, repetitive and overall just overwhelmingly unappealing music. The Germans themselves seem to have a terrible taste in music in general. German rap is just the same song and their selection of pop songs generally have no life or meaning. Nice country though.
The most shallow, basic and talentless music I have ever heard. When older people say "all music sounds the same these days". That really is the case in Germany. Amazing old classical music, and bands like Rammstein give them a tiny bit of dignity.
Even as a German myself, I have to say most German music is garbage. We were the ruling force in classical music, but nowadays, you can forget it. The last good German band was Kraftwerk, and that's as far as it goes for the past 50 years.
China, officially the People's Republic of China, is a country in East Asia. It is the world's most populous country, with a population of more than 1.4 billion. China spans five geographical time zones and borders 14 countries, the second most of any country in the world after Russia. Covering an area of approximately 9.6 million square kilometers (3,700,000 sq mi), it is the world's third or fourth largest country. The country consists of 23 provinces, five autonomous regions, four municipalities, and two Special Administrative Regions (Hong Kong and Macau). The national capital is Beijing, and the most populous city and financial center is Shanghai. Chinese (Mandarin) is the only official ...read more. China deserves to be number 1 on this list! I was born and raised in China but my father and I grew up listening to Billy Joel and Freddie Mercury and western music. My mother grew up listening to Cantonese Pop, but none of us were stupid enough to listen to Chinese pop music, especially the ones created in the 21st century. They tend to have chiche chord progressions and DISGUSTING PITCH BENDINGS, which can not handle properly like they way Queen did. Anyways, there hasn't been a single "good" Chinese song released in like twenty years.
Modern Chinese pop is boring as hell with lots of autotune and annoying gimmicks (a live show would soon freak you out no matter it is a cover or a concert), just like Kpop but with less corporation. This completely overshadowed Chinese classical music (those with erhus and stuff), which is beautiful.
Coming from a Chinese!
China just makes crappy remakes of good music or annoying music which will make eardrums pierce. Like South Korea and the U.S., it just focuses on young and good-looking but talentless singers.
Chinese Music is the sound you'll here at moment you're dying...

How stupid is a country that brought Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, Ariana Grande, Rebecca Black, Fifth Harmony, Carrie Underwood, Toby Keith, Florida-Georgia Line, Ted Nugent, Ke$ha, Meghan Trainor, all these emo bands (Black Veils, whatever), and more. How stupid can Americans be to make them popular?
How is this music good? Is ONE song without profanity, bad references and offensive themes to much to ask for!? Take a look at America's celebrities and you can tell why their music is messed up. DRUGS! That is why!
And they don't get in trouble for using them either.
American music is awful, yes a few exceptions - Deep Purple, The Clash, Rush, The Rolling Stones are probably some of the best music artists ever. But the majority of it's modern pop music is embarrassing. I'd rather listen to dogs.
I'm even American and I'm ashamed, I'm honestly sorry to the rest of the world. Please forgive us for being really stupid, having a terrible government that makes stupid decisions, goes to war over oil, and soiling you ears.
Azerbaijan, officially the Republic of Azerbaijan, is a country in the Transcaucasian region, situated at the crossroads of Southwest Asia and Southeastern Europe. It is a part of the Caucasus region, and is bounded by the Caspian Sea to the east, Russia to the north, Georgia to the northwest, Armenia and Turkey to the west, and Iran to the south. Baku is the capital and largest city. You guys don't even know what the hell you're thinking. There classical music is awesome. Somebody just plopped it on here.

If you watch all those Car Accident videos on You Tube, you get the feeling that those poor people are killing themselves because of the awful pop music. American pop music has basically been garbage before and after the Sixties, the only time in 300 years that it was any good at all. But Russian pop music doesn't make it sound better, just less offensive. It sounds like an out of tune violin next to a Fart.
Communists always thought that good lyrics meant good music. This is where they failed miserably. And what is India doing here. I have heard Hindustani classical music and it was just great. Nowadays Indian musicians have become copycats, but if you go back to the 60's, you can really feel the emotions in it. Musicians like salil chowdhary and Shankar Jaikishen were simply Prodigy.
No! Russia has great music! There's music that we wouldn't be too fond of in each country. The United States has horrible pop music, but there is some great stuff underneath it all. Same in Russia, only they have more music I like than in the U.S..
These communists doesn't have great taste in lyrics and notes. Also, some of their music sounds like circus acts, boring!
Sweden, officially the Kingdom of Sweden, is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe.
It borders Norway to the west and Finland to the east, and is connected to Denmark in the southwest by a bridge-tunnel across the Öresund. At 450,295 square kilometers (173,860 sq mi), Sweden is the third-largest country in the European Union by area, with a total population of 10 million. What does sweden does here? You must be kidding guys! Opeth, bathory, meshuggah, bloodbath, hypocrisy, draconian, Marduk, Amon Amarth, dark tranquillity and many many more! You must be kidding they are the best metal country, I think!
Norway makes way better music than Sweden. Norwegian accent is way more beautiful than Swedish accent.
Swedes are not talented singers at all. They don't even know how to sing properly.
The only reason why Sweden is popular is because it's overrated. Nothing else.
Norway, officially the Kingdom of Norway, is a sovereign and unitary monarchy in Northern Europe whose territory comprises the western portion of the Scandinavian Peninsula plus the island Jan Mayen and the archipelago of Svalbard.
Oslo is the capital of Norway. Norwegian is the official language of Norway. Yea, what black metal bands do is bad.
Let's talk about the music, though. We're not talking about what music scenes do.
And you know what? I don't like black metal music.
I don't like how the quality is always bad. Is it a rule that in order to be a black metal band, your songs has to sound like it's going through a toilet bowl? The lyrics are also pretty bland, and it's mostly just unoriginal.
This is MY OPINION, so please don't take it too seriously. I'm just one guy.
T
L;DR version: Make the sound quality better, and it will be (sort of) better.
There were no sacrifice (but there was murders) and the church burnings was to bring revenge to Christians settling their churches on norway's Viking heritage sites not satanism. Also their black metal is great if you just listen to it. Darkthrone, Burzum, Mayhem, Immortal, and many others are great examples of black metal which is actually good if you focus on the atmosphere and not what the media makes them to be
The only reason I'm voting for this is obviously because of those damn black metal bands who burn down churches and sacrifice victims.
I like norwegian black metal but I have to agree with the other guy.
Church burnings & Sacrafice victims is terrible.

Serbia with Kosovo has about 8.6 million inhabitants. Its capital Belgrade is also the largest city. Most of Serbian music is dominated by hooting owlish pop folk, the rest is some type of brass orkestra music that sounds like the love child of Mexican Banda and Turkish folk... other balkan countries managed to keep there slavic musical heritage mostly pure or blended there oriental influences into something tasteful (for example Romania, Bulgaria, Macedonia and have wonderful folk styles) I don't know what happened in Serbia though
Serbian music sucks... Turbo folk artists have zero talent, even "rap" sucks... The artists are promoting alcohol, smoking and drugs as positive things and the production is crappy... Songs from Serbia should be no. 1... I think no country has music that actually promotes drugs like Serbian music does... Especially new ones...
19? Seriously? This country gave us the garbage pile that is "turbo folk" and you say that Denmark, France, Norway, Japan, Sweden, Azerbaijan, Spain, Germany, United States, South Korea, Canada, and India. I'm done.
This country makes the most garbagest music ever. Turbo-Folk is worst genre in music ever created... Turbo-Folk is all about sex and nothing more. All of turbo folk singers have no flow,can only sing about sex... Even India makes better music than Serbia.
Vietnam, officially the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, is the easternmost country on the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia. "My parents listen to traditional Vietnamese music all the time. I want to die"
Here are some great artists: The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Queen, Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix! Play that music loud and enlighten your parents to great music, instead of letting them listen to that garbage!
If you don't think they'll like it, though, put on a pair of headphones if you own one and listen to any of these artists mentioned above, to escape from music that you hate so much!
by the way, you're not wrong, I don't like Vietnamese music either!
I am ashamed to be Vietnamese. Its music is the worst of the worst, V-POP or Vietnamese traditional music are like so old and sound the same

I just don't like mainstream Filipino music that is all about love, especially those sung by actresses who are trying hard to be singers. So obvious that they are in auto tune. Eraserheads, Parokya no Edgar and some other bands are good, but Filipinos have to admit that the instrumental almost sounds the same for these bands. As for Filipino rap, even if you say the late Francis Magalona is good, I personally find every Filipino rap trying hard rap and for the the general mass. The general mass are in lower middle class and below. Folk music is very trippy and definitely better than Filipino rap.
Mainstream Filipino music may be slow and sometimes generic, but they at least have better lyrical themes than those crappy pop songs from Miley Cyrus or Justin Bieber. We got Wolfgang, Eraserheads and Rivermaya! And some other great bands!
I get why Philippines was number 1 as "Top Ten Countries With Good Music" but man, their voices was just...just...heavenly something else.
