In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Ochen plokhaya muzyka” is a common card of the Russian Memes pack, number 28 of the collection, and the 132nd best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Ochen plokhaya muzyka” meme mean?

The meme parodies harsh judgement stripped of nuance. The broken syntax and the single adjective make it sound like a critic who said it all in three words. It lands under a video clip, a pop track or a doubtful playlist, and also on anything one wants to trash dramatically: a film, a dish, a text message. The clash between the exaggeration and the simplicity of the remark is the joke.

Where does the “Ochen plokhaya muzyka” meme come from?

The meme dates from 2008 and comes from the Runet, the Russian-speaking internet. It takes the form of a line in rough Russian that states an opinion about music with brutal frankness. It was reused in comments under music videos and on forums, where other uses were quickly found. Its popularity comes from its shape: just a few words, a verdict tone and a naivety that makes the insult endearing rather than cruel.
