I can't stand Queen, even though I have respect for their skill. (my highschool had an "arts program" and they bombarded us with musicals, Queen, and some sort of Queen musical)
NIN does nothing for me, and I've tried several albums and owned one. It's just.. nothing soup.
95% of music in any genre is garbage, but you can find the 5% gems if you go looking for it.
Sturgeon's Law: 90% of everything is crap.
I like to combine it with the Pareto Principle and hold that 80% of everything is crap.
I have no idea why, but I used to hate Queen songs when I was younger. Nowadays I've flipped around to enjoying them. No clue why!
My friends and I have recently been doing some shared tours through particular artists back catalogue. As a result I recently went through all of Queen’s back catalogue; there is a lot of shit in there. I didn’t realise that their hits, while stand out, were spread out over such a long catalogue of odd mediocre songs.
