Genres are born, but they never die, they stick around or evolve into something else, even the genres we want to die will never truly go away, how can hair metal truly be dead when Bon Jovi and Motley Crue are still insanely popular?

Disco is probably the closest thing that ever came to truly dying of a horrible death, but even it has seen somewhat of a revival.

This is something hipsters have taught me and taught me well. If a genre fades into obscurity, then 20 years later people are gonna dig it up and make a "revival" out of it, regardless of it's quality.
