Why does Polyphia's tone bug the hell out of me?

I could give a rat's ass about the snaps on age. Vai plays in a song with them and video, but I guess he's young? Who cares...they can do what they want. They've been around and seem to work hard. Not gonna knock any band these days...they have it tough. Not that I care for them, I do not. But it's an uphill battle for any band this day and age.
 
It bugs you because you're old enough to know it sounds like it could be part of a Nintendo game soundtrack.

I can appreciate the technical proficiency but I definitely do not enjoy listening to it.

It really does sound like midi.

There's very little human element for someone to latch onto emotionally; tonewise, playing, and writing.

They are certainly very technically proficient at making themselves sound like a Nintendo OST
