depressing war shit set to ironically chill music is my drug now
please find me shit to enable my addiction
This would be cool as an individual music video but not an entire genre of music/videos.. This just feels like the next stupid "aesthetic" for hopelessly unimaginative vaporwave producers to latch onto now that they've used up and slowed down every 80's pop song and need some other shtick to convince people they're not talent-less teenagers from middle America.

I think that's my problem with vaporwave in general: Individually, it's kind of interesting and unique. But not when every moron with FL Studio or Ableton installed jumps on board and tries to convince people their amateur production has a higher meaning about the disposable nature of music and the implications of corporate culture in society. It's just pretentious copy-catting.

After being to a warzone a few times this is kind of therapeutic as long as I don't watch the actual video too long.
Otherwise I start getting on edge and stressed out.
I've seen similar webm but with people committing suicide to sad Russian hip hop.
I know it's kinda fucked and edgy, but there's just something about it that I like. I wish that i could find the videos again.
So basically extended adult swim bumps with war themes
The last one your posted was ruined by the editing at the end imo. The heaviness of the situation seemed to be ruined by it. These videos are good because the music somehow increases the emotional impact of viewing the damages of a war zone.

i personally find that juxtaposition is always very powerful in emotional effect, that last one (sans the editing at the end) works very well
The first video is a clip from a documentary called Afghan: The Soviet Experience
