that's why I like descriptive music terms, .like people use dto call REM jangle-pop, it describes what their sound is like. which is why I can safely say sonic youth's first 5 albums are noise rock.
when people who are not fans of such music start using the terms, that is when it gets fucked up. for a while in the late 80's, people woudl refer to REM as being "college rock" whichis meaningless, seeing as how Jane's Addiction, Sonic Youth, and Big Black and Meat Puppets were also "college rock" and sounded nothing alike.
non-fans are irritatring.
