>>14079656>unsurprisinglyI don't know why I said this, it's actually somewhat surprising. Everything else still stands, however.
>>14079664That's an interesting fact. I wasn't aware, but it definitely makes sense. I know that it's also easier to pay attention to, and harder to ignore, musical with vocals, which is interesting given low IQ normies have a very short attention span for anything intellectually sophisticate, whether it be science, philosophy, music, or anything else.
Also, I would definitely agree based on my personal experience that most sophisticated music does seem to have less vocals. Jazz, classical, folk, industrial, etc. make very limited use of vocals. Good popular music, including a lot metal, punk rock, and progressive rock also makes relatively limited use of vocals. Only shitty ass popular music, like straight up "pop", rap, edm, and corporate rock relies heavily on vocals.
Also, and I mention this because it's probably less popular than any of the genres I mentioned, but if you like instrumental music, then you should check out dungeon synth.
>>14079535Brainlet tier take. Every generation has had shitty pop music, shitty literature, pop sci, etc. None of it has survived to today. This even applies to recent history, and even now that we have the internet. There are plenty of pop music artists from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, whose work is almost impossible to find, even on the internet, because they were just generic pop musicians of their day. At the same time, there are plenty of super obscure punk bands, e.g., from the 80s or 90s who have all their shit available online, because they were part of an authentic intellectual, artistic, movement, and played a seminal role in the evolution of music, even if they weren't as popular as some one-hit-wonder disco artist from the same time period. If you want, I can provide plenty of examples.
Same thing goes for TV shows, books, etc.
