Most Unusual Music Genres
Here are some of the strangest music genres you might've not heard of yet.
The songs in this music genre usually give a surreal airy-dreamy feeling that makes you feel relaxed. Sort of like a blend of aggressive yet soothing melody at the same time, while you mostly can't tell the lyrics.
Recommendations: My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, Pale Saints.
Shoegazing is a subgenre of alternative rock, where the lead singer stands in a single position and not move whatsoever, staring at their shoes while singing.
Lowercase music consists of amplified ultra-quiet or unheard sounds to extreme levels.
Glitch is a genre of electronic music that emerged in the 90s, wherein it consists of sounds that are most like unwanted disruptions and 'glitches' in the music, but by purpose.
Danger Music is an experimental form of avant-garde 20th and 21st century music designed to unsettle and unnerve the listener. Works like this are sometimes referred to as anti-music, as they seem to rebel against the concept of music itself.
Wizard rock bands often dress up as their favorite wizards when performing live. Bands in this genre typically sing about Harry Potter, because wouldn't it be weird to sing about Gollum?
Clownstep is a genre that describes simplistic d'n'b tracks that would leave the crowd dancing like clowns to their swinging beats.
Splittercore is a faster and a more intense form of speedcore, where the tempo goes up to 600 beats per minute.
Sounds cool! I might give it a try
This is just another name of early-hardcore. Nothing unusual about it.
This is like shoegaze, but it's fused with black metal elements.
The genre is exactly what it sounds like. Pirate Metal bands dress up in period costumes while playing heavy rock and metal-style music.
It's debatable if it's a music genre because the music genre is folk metal (with lyrics about pirates)
Unblack Metal is the response to black metal. The music artists that fall on this genre are either directly against the Satanism prevalent in black metal, or are promoting Christianity through their lyrics and imagery.
Super weird. Beck is famous in this genre.
