Don't get me wrong, people autotuning because they can't sing is bad,
Ke$ha without AutoTune - Your Love Is My Drug
but
When done right, it does add to a song.
Theres plenty of mainstream examples anyways.
Fuck you for seeing this thread before me.
I really don't care if shit's autotuned or not. If it sounds good, they've achieved what they're set out to do. Make music.
Also, metal songs obviously aren't autotuned, but a lot do modify the sound in different ways. So many bands do so, and it makes their music quality better. Other autotuned stuff is doing the same, just more heavily modified. Which I again, don't honestly see anything wrong with. I also don't like Justin Bieber, Kesha, Lady Gaga, etc, but they can actually sing. In their heavily autotuned songs, they don't actually have to, nor SHOULD they sing as if they weren't going to be autotuned, as it sounds much different.
