Experimental Music... You may have heard about that before... Is experimental music a genre that should be praised and respected for the boldness and originality of its ideas, no matter what the project sounds like, or is it just a "white boy" excuse to hide "bad art"? To answer this question, this video goes over a series of experimental projects, some internationally acclaimed (The Good), some being way more controversial (The Bad?) and some (in my opinion), being utter nonsense (The Ugly).
Feel free to share what you think of this list, what you would add or change and of course comment musical suggestions! This is of course my opinion on these albums and since the subject of this video is very "open to interpretation" , if you disagree, I ask you to *RESPECTFULLY share your own opinion in the comments ;)
*I tried to work on the mispronunciations, I hope it's not too distracting :)
