Yeah this is my litmus test I put Limp Bizkit, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nickelback or Cold Play on, even though I don’t really like that shit, and see if they are open minded about music or start gate keeping music which lots of basic bitches who like basic shit like Avenged Sevenfold seem to do with those bands.

I'm usually neutral towards the music I don't like because well it's subjective. However I'm currently an active Nickelback hater as a response to this new wave that claims Nickelback hate was just a meme and undeserved. I don't have an issue with people enjoying unoriginal or uninspired music, I do it all the time. But praising something that is not there annoys me. insert old man yells at cloud meme

Bad or good I'm fairly neutral on the argument (really depends on the song for me), but you can't deny it's iconic early 2000's music

i don't understand the hate for nickelback because hero by chat kroeger and josey scott is one of the best songs ever

Similar issue as Limp Bizkit IMO, good music but the vocals can't really keep up.

Don't confuse your memory of masses incapable of singing along to Under the Bridge with the actual song.
