The most provocative music in a time where every manner of abrasive music has been done to the furthest extreme, it seems far more challenging to dare make something embarrasingly earnest and pretty.

1. Both are done in spades.
2. Nothing ever truly reaches its limitation imo. Oversaturation is one thing, but pushing the envelope in "abrasive music" requires innovation which is difficult to predict.
