i'm sick of "hellektro" and all these new future/synth pop meet hardcore/screamo wannabe industrial bands. there's a difference between actually learning how to play the keyboard/synth and make music and just layering preset over preset. i'm sick of most industrial fans being too stupid to notice this and buying into the whole trend.
admittingly, i didn't mind it so much a couple years ago and was even involved in a project that probably could've been considered hellektro at the time but i think hellektro has become to industrial what hardcore is to metal which is a crappy subgenre that's more of a trend right now than anything groundbreaking.
eventually it wont be cool and all these kids will realize they've wasted their time and money supporting artists that didn't have anything original or creative to offer the genre. it's like future/synth pop was a couple years ago but even worse.
i'm sick of hearing new hellektro bands at clubs, and i'm sick of people thinking that i would like hellektro bands because of the other musical genres and bands i like. i just wish it would all die over night and i'm sure it will eventually but for the time being it annoys me greatly. okay. i'm done for now.
