One Person Band, but not like bedroom producer shit, I mean the kind you play with gizmos and flywheel contraptions and pulleys and shit

This exact one
I was afraid it was going to be Author and Punisher and I was going to be sad
we don't have enough contraptions in modern day life
I could have been a happy professional contraption operator
Me too comrade. Me too.
I wanna be a 90s movie Inventor.
Might be metal. Most modern metal has a kind of kayfabe attached to it where the over the top nature of it is kind of… ironic? I dunno, feels like there’s something there.
I agree, it’s metal because of the kayfabe. And it gets even funnier when you think about all the metal purists who take it super seriously and try to gatekeep it
I enjoy the kayefabe part of metal so the gatekeepers always amuse the hell out of me. Like, some dude goes on stage dressed in studded leather and corpsepaint singing about Satan fucking Jesus with a crucifix and then he goes home and tucks his kids into bed and posts pictures of taking his dog on walkies.
Nothing like listening to a symphonic metal band shred while singing about swords and sorcery in a heavy Italian accent

edit: I accidentally a whole metal
oh yeah, metal is an inherently silly genre
Polka
Came here to say this
white guy country-rap
Swing revival and electro swing
not so much haha funny, more why tf does this exist
I came here to say this but I actually find it kinda haha funny, especially knowing that electroswing was one of the whitest genres in existence when we were in that boom ten years ago.
it's country rap. second place goes to lounge crooners like sinatra and dean martin.
Lounge crooners kinda just suck imo lol
Folk Punk. Not that I think the genre itself is funny, but I swear every band comes out with a “funny” song and it’s fantastic.
Ska
Yeah being serious, there are very few genres that have songs that I find funny and Ska has a disproportionate amount of them.
Ska
Ska. It's all the same song.
Penis music, followed by power metal.
Penis Music 10 hours
Happy Hardcore, probably
Gabber!
Uptempo and Rawstyle or gfto!
JK love what you love.
All of it! But to answer the original question, I think Gabber is the funniest.
Gabber maybe around the millennial hardcore era was probably the zaniest. It's hard for me to go back to it and be like "I listened to this?"
Industrial Strength was on repeat for a lot of my high school days tho. I was a poor so I only had like 3 cd mixes in my collection
It really is zany. I never listened to a bunch of it on my own, but you’d better believe I never missed a Gabber set at a festival.
I was lucky to be at music-pirating-age very young, what with Napster, then Kazaa, Limewire, Morpheus, BearShare, SLSK… so I was fortuitous to have many music.
Off topic, but looking back on the sub this thread is in, I should probably find out what chapo is. I’m a c/all browser and I’ve only really heard about chapo on HBomberGuy’s nightmare DK trans charity stream, and Cumtown.
Long story short but this instance is the users from chapotraphouse from reddit. That subreddit got nuked by the admins for being based. They are named after the podcast with the same name. It's a leftist space and full of cool people.
Also I was doing the pirate thing back then too but didn't know any DJs to look up and didn't really know any outside of Omar Santana, Delta-9, Rob Geee, and Neophyte back then.
Damn, too many casualties.
SPACEDICKS (rip I_RAPE_CATS), WPD, NSFL, Cumtown, Chapo, now eyeblech…
Pirate metal for sure.
Nu metal
As much as I hate it, AI voices being set to songs. Some of them are pretty good. Anytime I throw in a Neco Arc AI voice cover, my co-worker laughs, especially if it's one he hasn't heard yet. Neco Arc cover of the Bad Touch gets me every time.
The AI cover of Hasan singing Red Sun in the Sky unironically slaps.
Whoever the opposite of Lil Dicky is
Third wave ska music. It has to be, it sounds silly and fun, and I say this as someone that likes the genre.
Contemporary Afrikaana music is often funny in a "so bad it becomes funny" way. Like how does one listen to artists like snotkop and Jan Jan band, and think it's good music? It's obviously a joke. The problem is that this kind of irony is way overdone in Afrikaans musiek, so no one takes it seriously or listens. I refuse to listen to that kind of nonsense to be honest.
phonk
Metal
HEALTH have pioneered the genre known as "Cum Metal" and i'm here for it
Ironically it's not Comedy. Likely something like one of Metal's millions of subgenres takes the crown.
