The greatest music genre, the power and skill of it came from centuries of slaves being put in pens, and some of the only things they were allowed to do were sing, or play instruments if they had any.
As a result it built up and became an amazing style.
It turned into Rock N' Roll in the 20th century and is played by musicians such as Eric Clapton.
Some of teens condemn The Blues saying its boring, but if it wasn't for the blues we wouldn't have any of the music we listen to.

People who think they are better than everyone else.
In terms of social groups centered are music.
Most Metalheads, Classic Rock-heads Indie fans, and Hipsters are elitists.
Metalheads tend to think that taste in music is all that matters in the quality of a person. Also they think Metal is the ultimate music. So they think that people who listen to Metal are superior to those who do not.
Classic Rock-heads are the same way as Metalheads. They are a little more open minded but still elitists.
Indie fans think that unknown music is superior. They are not as strong about their musical taste as metalheads, but they still believe they are better than those who listen to bands everyone knows.
Hipsters tend to think those who don't listen to whats in are strange and different and therefore insuperior to them.
In terms of social groups not centered around music.
Jocks, and Preps are elitists.
Most Jocks believe anyone who sucks at sports and gets good grades are insuperior to them.
Some preps believe anyone who doesn't have a sense of fashion or isn't like them or everyone else is insuperior.

A music genre that was drug-induced, the first big experimental band was Pink Floyd. The experimental sound is a sound that is more otherworldly. Pink Floyd had songs like Comfortably Numb, One of These Days, The Great Gig in the Sky that had a sound like being lifted into a dream.
People confuse psychedelic with experimental, but psychedelic formed years after Pink Floyd broke up.
In the 21st century The Mars Volta came, with a skilled guitarist and a singer with a strange voice that fit their strange style. they had dedicated an album titled "De-loused In The Comatorium (an auditorium is a place for listening so a comatorium would be a place for being in a coma)" to their friend who went into a coma, came out of it then commited suicide. The album is from the point of view of a fictional character. He goes through battles in his mind while he is in his coma and he wakes up and then kills himself.
Example from song "Roulette Dares(The Haunt Of)":
Specter will lurk
Radar has gathered
Midnight nooses from boxcar cadavers
The Mars Volta's experimental sound is like Pink Floyd's except they are hundreds of times more experimental than Pink Floyd and their kind of sound is different. Instead of being lifted into a dream you are being thrown into another world and pulled extremely fast by and invisible force. But in other songs like Televators, its like standing in the middle of someone elses dream and everything in that dream you have never seen before, except it seems real, and everything echos quietly. Other songs are just extremely weird, the cutting edge of weird. Their sound can be so weird to people that not many people like them. But if you are a Pink Floyd fan and hunger a lot for the experimental sound that Pink Floyd has, and it just isn't enough to satisfy your experimental tastes, then you will love The Mars Volta.
Someone said The Mars Volta "throws lyrics together to sound creative". If he looks at the words he could see that they rhyme, and it is not as easy to "throw lyrics together to sound creative" as it is to write regular ones, I've written lyrics before. All the stuff The Mars Volta writes is in metaphor, its not thrown together.

A more popular form of a Punkish type of Rock. It loses (most or all of) the additutde of Punk while keeping its 1 2 3 rhythm. Good Pop-Punk bands would be old Blink-182, Old Sum 41, American Hi-Fi, Zebrahead, and Motion City Soundtrack. Bad Pop-Punk bands would be new Sum 41, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco and The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.
Pop-Punk was a style that was around in the 80's but made a bigger spring in the late 90's and early 21st century. Pushing away the horrible Madonna and Britney influenced techno which clouded up the 90's.
Characteristics of Pop-Punk include
A 1 2 3 Rhythm
Clean vocals
By the way to all you guys who say Punk was anti-mainstream it really wasn't. Because The Ramones and The Sex Pistols and The Clash were mainstream so how they be anti-mainstream?
Anyway more recently Pop-Punk has taken a turn to more emotional types of lyrics, usually from the point of view of a boy who is observing problems that a girl is having or problems he is having with a girl.

One who does not believe in a greater power. At least in the form of a non-physical power.
There are three kinds of Atheists.
1) The Emo ones, the ones who do not believe in God because they are simply depressed and things have not gone their way.
2) The elitist ones, the ones who feel they are smarter and more free-thinking than others for not believing in God.
3) The good ones, the ones who simply don't believe in God, are aware that it can't be proven if God exists or not and doesn't annoy every believer he/she comes across.

1) I'm an Atheist! If God existed my gf wouldn't have left me!
2) God is a fairy tale, I am so much smarter than anyone who believes in God.
3) I don't believe there is a God, but I won't be annoying about it.
