haha, I came here expecting loads of people talking about whatever this is, and I would have no idea what anyone is talking about. Glad I'm not the only one who has no idea what this tag is about.

New Weird America is not a genre but supposed to represent a movement...like Woodstock, not all the music was the same but somehow they were interconnected. It is just the representation of a movement of culture. That is what I think it is.
