The worst popularity-to-quality ratio art is made there and promoted around the globe as shining examples of American media (bad sitcoms, Hollywood blockbusters, Metallica, ect.). When people think of the vapidity of America they're usually thinking of something that came from California. Now compare that to the thriving avant-garde scenes in places like New York and Austin.

>>53429042
I've never listened to Cake because I hate their name.

>>53428697
I think it has it's charm, places like LA and Hollywood almost feel like parodies of themselves. It's like living inside grand theft auto universe.

Mexican Northern California has some hot as fuck bitches.

>>53428697
By far the worst state in the US. Hopefully the fuck off and become their own country soon.

>>53428697
>It's a state that celebrates the worst aspects of American culture
This is actually true. They're passing a law that let's transgender men masquerading as woman piss in the womens restrooms. There was this case where this little boy thought he was a girl, and so his parents demanded that he be allowed to use the girls restroom. If I remember correctly, they ended up allowing it. I would've withdrawn my daughter immediately and put her in another school.

>>53429110
Incorrect, decent bands or greater.

>>53429110

>>53429081
>It's pretty obvious.
Okay doofus.
>>53429053
Celebrating is not the same as profiting from. And I'd say the worst aspects of American culture are things like racism, homophobia, general intolerance, stuff like that. You can find a lot more of that in almost any other state.

Californians are so morally self-righteous, as if they're the only left-leaning state in America

>>53428931
Texas?

The Byrds are so much better than the Beach Boys. I can't fucking believe people think otherwise.

>>53429363
>useless state
You literally have no reason to think this. Boston is a bustling, thriving town that sources a lot of important corporations.

uhhh definitely california

texas wins in largest population of worthless pieces of shit though definitely

At least we can all agree this is the most Californian band ever right?

We can also agree that their albums with John Frusciante are actually quiet good, yeah?

when do you guys think weed will be legal in all 48 contiguous states

>>53429355
>>53429363
Californian inferiority complex in full swing. Where is your classical musician scene? Where were you guys when punk rock was being invented, when the Beats were smoking pot, when black people in Harlem were writing literary masterpieces in the early 1900s, when abstract expressionism became a thing? California's largest contribution to modern culture is Guns n' Roses and The Big Bang Theory.

>>53429514
well if you take out alaska because of population

>>53428908
>>53428931

texas being the second largest state would be the largest state with a high population.

>>53429548
Never. There's no way weed'll be legal in Texas ever.

>>53429487
like i said,
>the rest is bumfuck hickville

and apparently the rest of us are too busy working and/or smoking decriminalized weed and/or surfing to go out and vote

Well we do have some of the best punk acts of all time. Also San Francisco circa 1967-1971 was a pretty great time and place for music.

>>53429908
Abstract expressionism, realism, pop art, the entire New York School
