Holy shit, that album makes me think of the #MeeToo shit,Occupy Wallstreet, GamerGate, and the start of that feminine girl boss bullshit.
The band even made a song for that mirrors edge sequel that did garbage because of that Anita Sarkesian bitch.
Takes me back.

They're expressionist beeps and boops, the beeps and boops express the existential dread and alienation of the internet generation much like depeche mode's beeps and boops expressed the melancholy and horniness of boomers and gen xers.

Pretty crazy Crystal Castles was around for more than a decade, didn't feel like it. Their first EP was released in July 2006 and their final album was released in August 2016. That's a good run for the kind of band they were.

Did you know it was merely a glorified remix of a Van She (VANiSHEd) track?

There was 3 eras of music in the 2000s.
>00s-09
All the cringy new subgenres all came about.
Last decade of bands actually being popular/mainstream and there was a distinct sound. The pre-teen sound I call it.
>Emo/Scene/Nu-Metal subgenres(Black Veil Brides/MCR/TBS/Limp Bizcuit/Deftones/Slipknot/etc.)
>Bands like All American Rejects/Motion City Soundtrack/Fall Out Boy/ Simple Plan/Blink-182 dominating the Movie Sountracks of that time.
>09-2015
The Indie Takeover (which really occurred in the 00s) before Rap dominates the cultural zeitgeist.
>Arcade Fire/Foster The People/Chvrches/ Vampire Weekend/
>EDM/Dubstep/Electronic Music reaches its peak before influencing the transition into Rap/Modern Pop
>Last phase of Life being somewhat normal before we reach the modern digital age.
>16-Now
This is where we are now.
16-19 is where we transition to the state of the musical culture today.
2020 simply stapled that cultural zeitgeist and ensured it would stick for the rest of the decade(hence here we are at 2026 and our musical taste is very much comparable to the late 2010s. We've reached a stage of stagnation since.

One of the defining moments of millennial culture for sure, though there were a couple more of them
- very early 00s - Strokes, White Stripes - these bands straddled that timespace between trailing 90s, post-grunge and 00s indie rock
- Vampire Weekend
- Davendra Barnhart
- Interpol
- The XX
- MGMT
- Jai Paul - more obscure, but he caused a shock when his tracks leaked, he inspired a lot of stuff
- MIA
- M83
- The Knife (indietronica etc)
- Klaxons and the new rave scene
- then the whole stomp-clap-hey thing part of which was tasteful, not all of it was corny shit - I liked Ed Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
- vaporwave, ONP, hypnagogic pop, etc

If we're being honest, it's probably something like Katy Perry's 'Teenage Dream.' It has everything from an internet meme song (Last Friday Night) to nostalgia song with 80's rock overtones (title track) to a big bloated 'millennial whoop' track (Firework). And it was tuned by algorithms and corporate teams of songwriters to appeal to as many demographics as possible.

Yea but dubstep was never very musical.
The whole signature of this genre was that wubwubwub noise
That brought some novelty thrill back then but now it doesn't impress anyone.
At least Skrillex had some tunes, so there's still something salvageable on a relisten

>like Kings of Leon
T is negative at this point.
Kings of Leon was nothing but a industry plant pop band which comforted normies with their inoffensiveness - the opposite of a generation defining group.

based but I would point the NuMetal earthquake to late 90s

>The whole signature of this genre was that wubwubwub noise
