Apparently I can appreciate the artistry and skill it takes to make music or art with out having to like the item produced unlike most other people.

Art is totally subjective, and I can also appreciate artistry and skill even if I dislike it.
....except two bands. Nickleback and Simple Plan. Both come across as talentless and corporate. Designed to make money off of people who don't know any better and don't seek out quality music for themselves. From the lyrics, to the chord progressions, to the feelings they conjure, it's not authentic to me personally. It's a product created for mass appeal and $$$. I suppose you could still classify that as art though. I get it that some people love those bands and I respect the fact that they are entitled to their opinion, as am I. The thing is though that to me they're such an abomination to music that I can't help but speak my mind on how awful it is to me. I'm not trying to convince people or act 'edgy' because of it. I've just always been the kind of person that speaks my mind. Especially when it comes to things I'm passionate about (ie: music) but it bothers me not if you wanna sing along to 'Rockstar' and 'Welcome to my life' knock yourself out.
