Its all systematic and made in sound studios.
Its all part of an overall system run by the rich and famous, so doesn't that totally invalidate the point of this thread.
It is the album not the music pay particular attention to the lyrics and you will see what I am talking about there MFG. This thread isn't completely invalidated either as it is asking a question to those who know what I am talking about. The topic happens to be which album is more nihilistic not which music is more categorized. Get it now?
I understood your point before I even posted my above blurb. It's not nihilistic because you don't understand the definition. Its angsty teen goth music.
Thats why subhuman defends this thread. His swell guy leather fetish affects his judgement.

Actually, I defend people against stupid opinions like yours.

So in the context of Marylin Manson and NIN, yes, we're using the wrong definition of "nihilism". However, the most commonly accepted usage of the word is to denote something that is depressing, death-obsessed, etc. Therefore, we're technically using the wrong word, but we're all pretty much on the same wavelength. We're talking about gloomy music.
