Look, you’re not going to like every music artist or band that’s out there. I mean there’s so many that you are bound to dislike some of them. And that’s completely normal. You are not meant to like everything because that is part of being human. But, sometimes people may crucify you for liking or not liking certain things. And maybe you won’t like what I have to say but oh well, I’m going to say it anyways.
I am not a big fan of Marianas Trench. I don’t think they’re that bad, but I think they’re just kind of boring. When I listen to their songs I just don’t really feel anything. Their songs don’t sound bad or anything but there’s just nothing really going on for me.
Take a song like Fallout. That song sounds fine but it’s nothing really special. The vocals are pretty good and the instrumentation is solid for the most part, but their music just doesn’t really do anything for me. For most songs that move me, they give me some type of emotion and this song just doesn’t. This song should make you feel emotional over your partner or someone you like but I just don’t get that feeling. The emotion just lacks for me and I’m not too sure how they could fix that. Maybe just cleaning up the writing but I’m not totally sure.
Another song by them that I don’t really like is Stutter. Holy does this song annoy me. It used to always come on the radio and the part where he stutters the word stutter in the chorus is so obnoxious. I get that it’s the name of the song so that’s sort of the point but you didn’t need to actually stutter the word stutter. It’s just such an annoying thing to listen to and I don’t get why they thought it was a good idea.
Who Do You Love is another song that is a very nothing song for me. It’s not bad but I also think it’s not that good. It doesn’t sound bad but there’s just nothing really notable about this song. The one thing you don’t want to do is have a mediocre song and Marianas Trench is doing exactly that.
Alright maybe I’m being a bit harsh on them, but this is just my opinion after all. If you enjoy them then don’t let me change that opinion for you. Music is subjective and you should enjoy whatever you enjoy.
But for me, I just can’t get into Marianas Trench, unfortunately.
