Same with plenty of the shit I saw in the NYC MOMA. There were pieces of art where a guy just spray painted a mound on the floor. Shit like that annoys me

Minimalism in music is the same way. Theres some cool shit in that vein, but there's also a piece where 2 notes are held for 15 minutes.

At the same time I think music can function as a lot more than just art, and looking at it just as art isnt something I'm used to anymore, so when I see the really bullshit things I can get kinda critical
