The TV Tropes Awful Music Collective is a band started by {{Tropers/Lordnecronus}} in the forum thread "Let's make shitty music together", which can be found [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13030728310A96774300&page=1 here]]. The objective of it is to create an album of terrible music.

'''The participants are:'''
* Tropers/BoundByTheMoon
* Tropers/{{JHM}}
* Tropers/KingOfKings
* Tropers/KitsuneInferno
* Tropers/{{Litis}}
* Tropers/{{Lordnecronus}}
* Tropers/MikeK
* Tropers/YonTroper - [[AutoTune Clean vocals]], guitar and drums. Appears on "Imma Hard Durg Taker" and "U Ain't Christian, Shawty".

'''Current songs include:'''
* "[=HoOSHA!=]" by [=AwESOME MOVIE SOUND NOISES=]!!! - Tribal percussion, distorted, enthusiastic monologues, and maniacal laughter. Quite terrifying.
* "Imma Hard Durg Taker" by Zalgo of Broccoli - An indecipherable mess of random guitar notes, gratuitous [[AmenBreak Amen breaks]] and indecipherable spoken word.
* "trapped in a room WITH NO ESCAPE" by the Buffoon Conspiracy - 7:19 of kvlt distortion and terrible black metal screams.
* "Surpise Sex" by A Dyslexic Asian - Consists entirely of random synth washes played over three repeating bass notes. Pretty scary.
* "Shojo Statistics" by A Dyslexic Asian - Randomised tribal percussion and more synth washes. A good competitor to "Surpise Sex" in the horror stakes.
* "U Ain't Christian, Shawty (Pooprave Mega Mix)" by Breathe Broken Attack! - The crunkcore/deathcore crossover nobody[[note]]read: Litis[[/note]] was asking for.
* "I Am Going to Murder You" by Boosh Baloosh featuring the Fat Chinese Sluts Orchestra & Lower Dances - noise music. Bad noise music.
* "Bend Over For Brootul" by Dead Goths Everywhere - Scorecore, a mixture of metalcore and film score. EpicRocking ensues.

!'''The TV Tropes Awful Music Collective provides examples of:'''
* AutoTune: Used egregiously by Yon Troper in "U Ain't Christian, Shawty".

* CarefulWithThatAxe: Most notably, the ending to "[=HoOSHA!=]".
* DreadfulMusician: Done deliberately.
* EarRape: WordOfGod claims that the melody to "Surpise Sex" reads [[LampshadeHanging "I heart rape"]].
* EpicRiff: Several in "U Ain't Christian, Shawty"... all of them stolen from Music/AtTheGates.
** WordOfGod is that they were all improvised and the guitarist can't even remember them.
* EpicRocking: "trapped in a room WITH NO ESCAPE" is 7:19.
** "Bend Over For Brootul" is slightly longer at 7:25.
* GenreMashup: "U Ain't Christian, Shawty" is a combination of crunkcore and deathcore.
* IAmTheBand:
** A Dyslexic Asian consists entirely of Kitsune Inferno.
** [=AwESOME MOVIE SOUND NOISES!!!=] consists entirely of Mike K.
** Dead Goths Everywhere is Bound By The Moon.
* IndecipherableLyrics: "Imma Hard Durg Taker".
* LoudnessWar: All the songs use tons of compression and are hard-limited below [=0dB=] so that they clip.
* SoBadItsGood: The contributors who aren't trying hard enough.
* ThreeChordsAndTheTruth: "trapped in a room WITH NO ESCAPE", which consists mostly of fuzz.
