Rape rock

'Rape rock refers to a genre of music that appears as an underground internet phenomenon from about 2040 to 2060. The internet group Vagina 32 is thought to have founded it, although numerous anonymous uploads on sharing sites can be said to belong to the genre. Rape rock songs are always assumed to be in the voice of the victim, although the point of view tends to shift around quite a lot. Extreme rage, pain and thirst for revenge informs them and the lyrics are invariably explicitly violent and nihilistic. This is enhanced by discordant, blaring unrhythmic music. Videos are rare for this genre, and song uploads usually have a static (and often gruesome) picture or slideshow. Vagina 32's greatest hit Can Open had a collage of ripped up stomachs for a cover. The genre died in teh 2050s after the advent of the Joking Clown, whose early hit 'Knife in My Belly' is a classic of the genre.
