folk metal: the world is broken, as foretold from by the Ancient Ones whom we celebrate with gut-wrenching melancholy

D&D: world is broken let's adventure
With dice!
Metal: world is broken and so are we.
Weirdcore: World is broken so I've been slamming Monster energy drinks for 48 hours straight and now I'm delirious and hallucinating the nineties.
What -core is "I haven't slept in a week for non-meth reasons so here's wonderwall" (I never learned to play wonderwall)?

Industrial: The world is broken and has been for a while so let's go to the abandoned husk of the inner city, throw a party, and make insane music before it crashes down around our ears.
It all sounds so dated now... I used to listen to all this stuff.
Just different stages of grief. The world is broken. Maybe we can fix some parts of it but nobody is going to singlehandedly fix everything. Trying to fix it is the bargaining stage of grief. Being upset that you can't do anything is the depression stage. Embracing it is the acceptance stage. Can't change the world but we can change our attitude.
Death Metal: RAARRRAOARAAAGHHH (booklet with the lyrics probably says "world is broken let's fuck shit up" )

hyperpop: the world is working exactly as intended and you should be as many levels of angry as there are genre influences in this track
"Ska is what a 13 year old hears in their head when they are told they are getting free mozzarella sticks."
Grunge: "The world is broken, and so am I. But there's nothing we can do about it so let's just fuck."

Open question to the floor: what is the most "Ska" song I could send to someone? Like the most iconic or the most stereotypical "Ska" a song could possibly be.
Edit: I've got some listening to do, thanks for the responses, keep them coming! I've never heard of half these bands, and while Ska isn't usually my thing I definitely vibe with some of them.
For the 90s ska revival, I think Reel Big Fish takes the cake for most ska-ish ska band
None of these are stereotypical but I think I covered part of the range.

Damn, I didn't realize I was ska until just now. I in fact have a trumpet and a coronet. And the first live show I ever got high at was Skankin Pickle touring Skafunkrastapunk. Somehow completely unrelated I ended up with their bass drum kick pedal about a year and a half later. I don't even listen to ska though. But the attitude is all mine!
Yo I got a sax. We just need a bass player and we got a band
Don't forget us trombone players.

Nu metal is bipolar. Its either "the world is broken but ignore it with the help of a song that has no right to be this groovy" or "the world is broken and thats why im setting the whole fucking place on fire including myself"
Damn, now I need to learn about Nu Metal! Who do I listen to in the first batch?
