Coldplay & Imagine Dragons labeled music\u2019s \u201cworst genre\u201d but not everyone agrees Flickr: Daniele DalledonneIn a now-viral post, a Twitter\/X user called Coldplay and Imagine Dragons \u201cthe worst genre,\u201d but many fans don\u2019t agree. For nearly two decades, Coldplay has been labeled \u201cone of the very worst things to have happened to popular music.\u201d Blockbuster albums and smash hits couldn\u2019t dissuade many from feeling this way. The same can be said about Imagine Dragons, who have their own set of extremely vocal detractors. Music, as they say, is subjective, and perhaps neither band really deserves such ridicule. On Twitter\/X, a viral tweet unearths these arguments \u2013 that these bands, along with OneRepublic and Maroon 5, are just not very good. Coldplay and Imagine fans defend bands after viral post \u201cThe worst genre,\u201d wrote Joe is Levitating. They then attached screenshots of various artists, including Coldplay and Imagine Dragons, as a way to drag some of America\u2019s most popular bands. Such a venomous takedown didn\u2019t sit too well with hardcore Coldplay and Imagine Dragons fans, and many took to expressing their anger and frustration. \u201cPutting Coldplay next to the other 3 is criminal,\u201d wrote a fan. \u201cPlease don\u2019t do Coldplay. They have gems in their catalog,\u201d added Renbrandt. Please don’t do Coldplay. They have gems in their catalog \u2014 \ud835\udde5\ud835\uddf2\ud835\uddfb\ud835\uddef\ud835\uddff\ud835\uddee\ud835\uddfb\ud835\uddf1\ud835\ude01 \ud83e\udd0d\ud83c\udf43 (@ThReigningChamp) November 24, 2023 \u201cImagine sneaking coldplay in when they have a 10 minute banger that is universally loved,\u201d implored one diehard fan account. Another fan called it \u201cdisrespectful\u201d to put them in the \u201csame category as the others,\u201d they wrote. \u201cJust say y\u2019all only listen to the radio popular songs\u2026\u201d imagine sneaking coldplay in when they have a 10 minute banger that is universally loved \u2014 CPSpotify \u2013 Moon Music Arc (@coldplaystreams) November 24, 2023 Putting Coldplay in the same category as the others is disrespectful.

Romi Angel noted how the band was \u201cone of the best shows I went to. They put on a great show that is full of hits. It\u2019s those bands that you think you know 5 songs tops, and you end up singing along to every song.\u201d \u201cNow what did imagine dragons do to you,\u201d posted another fan. One fan admitted to not necessarily being a diehard supporter but came to their defense. \u201cIdk why so many people hate on imagine dragons I won\u2019t call myself a fan but they have quite a few good songs ngl.\u201d Idk why so many people hate on imagine dragons I won’t call myself a fan but they have quite a few good songs ngl \u2014 Bignasx (@Bignasx1) November 24, 2023 \u201cI cant believe people dont like Imagine Dragons \u2014 i mean they\u2019re my cup of tea,\u201d a fan shrugged. \u201cThe first two imagine dragons albums are both inoffensive and have some good songs,\u201d wrote a fan. I cant believe people dont like Imagine Dragons \u2014 i mean they\u2019re my cup of tea. \u2014 be kind \u2601\ufe0f (@Gabreloader) November 24, 2023 While the debate rages on, keep tuned into Dexerto for all your entertainment needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
