The house next door to me is going up for sale soon and Iโ€™d like to delay that process as much as possible. What would be the most annoying music I could play when prospective buyers are next door?

Alright. Y'all ever hear about the shaggs?

A dad was told by a fortune teller that his yet-unborn kids were destined for musical stardom. After that, the dad had no choice but to force his eventual kids into a band.

These kids had no musical training. No sense of rhythm, no sense of pitch.

Their released music is the auditory equivalent of a child's crayon drawing hung on the fridge. It's astoundingly disjointed. It's all wrong. Frank Zappa said they're better than the Beatles. SOMEONE out there likes screamo. Some folks out there like bagpipes. Then what happens? Your neighbor loves blasting screamo. You've played yourself. Unless Frank Zappa is moving in, you'd be hard pressed to find a potential buyer that like the shaggs.

Enjoy.
