Actual weebs listen to game/anime OST with the occasional edgy nu-metal act thrown in.

Normie/ironic weebs (such as someone who would save an image as "Smug Anime # __") usually listen to memes.

Sporkcore WILL be the redeemer.
It’s hard to describe, but I can imagine a computer music that embodies this combination of FEDERATION, TRANSFIGURATION, and ALCHEMY—not so much combined into a unity, but into a roiling, contradictory mess, like mental and emotional gymnastics courses on which the soul can discover its true nature, only to abandon this nature and replace it. It would be a flux of clashing identities, imperatives, and motifs: noise, cloud rap, punk, metal, avant-garde music from the IRCAM-era, romantic tone poems, medieval masses, candy ravers, Elisabethan aristocrats, brooding modernists. It would experiment with frequencies, vibrations, hyper-compressed and hyper-extended temporal durations, stochastic irregularities, and phase spaces at the inner, interpersonal, organic, and inorganic levels. And all of it would clash together as a super-cultural counter-identification with the one true God in an eschatological supercollider, creating particles of faith, hope and love.
You'll miss out though, thanks to your attitude of childish refuse.

Yes, on a board where anime reaction clearly aren't common. Which is why you do it on every post.

You can do the same things you can with rock that you can with electronic music, thanks to technological improvements. Some artists just choose not to.

The electronic music you've been exposed too alone is what makes you think it's only just repetitive and lackadaisical (at least that's what one would assume). I suggest listening to Iglooghost, Arca, and Ash Koosha for starters if you're looking for something less mundane and repetitive, although Arca has a formula that might get on your nerves if you're the critical type.

Evian Christ is a fun piece of accessible but wonky electronic music as well as William Crooks (SoundCloud artist, but that isn't anything to discredit someone for) and EASTGHOST. I'd recommend Death Grips as well since you seem to like rock music and they hold rock pretty closely to them.

I think you should give electronic music more of a chance, friendo.

It's the limitation of the entire structure and idea behind it though. It's common to hear a melody motiff or theme being repeated throughout the song, accompanied by a steady beat which has ornaments along the way. It would be hard and weird to include more musically complex stuff, would just sound out of place.
