I actually mostly unironicly enjoy scene kid music

It's musical garbage made for teenagers. It's all the worst parts of post-hardcore and actual screamo watered down

>Idk know why most people see it as audible satan

Because every single bit of it that I've heard uses the exact same formula: extremely heavy and compressed guitars with scooped mids that churn out the most boilerplate metalcore riffs imaginable that are pushed to the front of the mix to fight for space with the growled vocals until the chorus hits and suddenly hey, it's sparkly-clean pop-punk whining. But wait, they're saying *sHoCKinG tHINgS*, this isn't something that NORMAL people can appreciate, it's just too TWISTED. But also so emotional, can't you see how they're singing that nobody understands them using the tried-and-true method of showing, not telling?

The production typically suffers from being overly clean, with each instrument sounding like it was individually tracked. Basically everything is nowadays and it's a good practice, but you do everything you can to make it sound like it wasn't, otherwise you end up with the completely sterilized, dull sonics that pervade scene kid music.

The music and scene is emotionally immature, but not in an endearing, nostalgic way. The entire thing banks on the idea that the audience is not only different from normal people, but are better precisely because they're different, when in reality they're just your average, stupid and suggestible kids or adults who can't grow up and find solace in a shallow, manufactured identity that's based on music by bands that can't come up with an interesting idea to save their lives.

Every aspect of the scene is just as manufactured as anything by The Chainsmokers but nobody inside it will admit it.

You raise a lot of good points but idk about the edgy content you're referring to, in my experience almost all of those bands sing about partying
(dot dot curve, millionaires, brokencyde) they are still cringy Ik but not in that way

I don't dip my toes into the music often since I can't stand it so maybe things have changed on the lyrical front, but the most important part about the scene is its artistic bankruptcy.
