Hi /mu/! I am here today to discuss what is now generally seen as "memecore", etc! I see the much wider variety of this needs a name, as all new types and genres of music need names. Why not call it "Proto"? Just a thought! Discuss this below!
How the fuck does the word "proto" even remotely relate to the word "meme"?

Well, why do we call certain other genres their name, when originally, it means nothing close to the type of music it now represents. Take "Rock" for example. Before the term came around, it used to describe a naturally forming object. So, why not create our own name for a genre without a name. Also, "proto" could be a shortened form of the word "prototype". Which sort of sums up what memecore is. It is a prototype (if you would) of our collective minds (the internet) trying to create something new.
TLDR; Why Not?
