Editing Transgressive art (section)

=== In music ===
Subsequent transgressive artists of the 1990s overlapped the boundaries of literature, art, and music, including [[GG Allin]], [[Lisa Crystal Carver]], [[Shane Bugbee]], and [[Jean-Louis Costes|Costes]]. With these artists came a greater emphasis on life itself (or death) as art, rather than simply depicting a certain mindset in film or music. They were instrumental in creating a new type of visionary art and music, and influenced artists including [[Alec Empire]], [[Cock E.S.P.]], [[Crash Worship]], [[Usama Alshaibi]], [[Liz Armstrong]], [[Lennie Lee]], [[Weasel Walter]], [[Nihilist Records|Andy Ortmann]], and the later work featured in [[Peter Bagge]]'s comic [[Hate (comics)|''Hate'']].

[[Rock and roll]] music has inspired controversy and been transgressive from its inception. As certain other musical genres grew in popularity, some transgressive artists used controversy to make a statement, gain attention, or make a profit (or a combination of these).<ref>{{cite web |title=How to Effectively Use Controversy in Your Music Marketing Strategy |url=https://becksmarketer.co.uk/controversy/ |website=Becks Marketer |date=9 March 2023 |access-date=21 June 2024}}</ref> Among certain musical genres and movements, offending modern sensibilities was an integral part of the music. Musical genres that utilize transgressive themes or music include genres such as [[shock rock]], [[punk rock]], [[Trap music|trap]], [[grindcore]], [[black metal]] and [[death metal]], and various bands within the [[avant-garde rock]] or [[experimental rock]] genre.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}} Since the late twentieth century, the term has been most frequently applied to artists of musical genres such as [[hardcore hip hop]], [[gangsta rap]], and [[horrorcore]]. [[Eminem]] was a major subject of such controversy; his early works, most notably ''[[The Slim Shady LP]]'' (1999) and ''[[The Marshall Mathers LP]]'' (2000), were subjects of backlash surrounding their violent lyricism.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Harvilla |first=Rob |date=2019-02-20 |title=Eminem Has Been America's Nightmare for 20 Years |url=https://www.theringer.com/music/2019/2/20/18232748/eminem-slim-shady-lp-20th-anniversary |access-date=2024-01-25 |website=The Ringer |language=en}}</ref><ref name="hearing">{{cite web |last=Mancini |first=Robert |date=September 13, 2000 |title=Eminem Targeted At Senate Hearing |url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1428579/eminem-targeted-at-senate-hearing.jhtml |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140222053618/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1428579/eminem-targeted-at-senate-hearing.jhtml |url-status=dead |archive-date=February 22, 2014 |access-date=February 9, 2014 |work=MTV News |publisher=Viacom}}</ref> Another major figure of criticism was rapper [[Tyler, the Creator]], whose horrorcore-influenced debut studio album, ''[[Goblin (album)|Goblin]]'', described graphic violence, which subsequently got his concerts banned from countries such as [[New Zealand]][https://www.nme.com/news/music/tyler-creator-finally-allowed-new-zealand-2535907/] and the [[United Kingdom]][https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/why-tyler-the-creator-got-banned-from-the-uk/]. Though his former negative reputation softened to the masses[https://www.grammy.com/news/tyler-creator-wins-best-rap-album-igor-2020-grammys], Tyler, the Creator and his former hip-hop group, [[Odd Future]]'s music still faced major criticism for graphic lyrics present in their songs in the early 2010s.

Some musical artists use the controversy that surrounds transgressive art as a form of publicity.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://christandpopculture.com/capc-mag-volume-2-issue-13-popular-music/transcendence-transgression-rock-roll-music-luxury/|title=Transcendence, Transgression, and Rock & Roll: The Music of Luxury - Christ and Pop Culture|work=Christ and Pop Culture|access-date=2017-09-09|language=en-US}}</ref>
