I was told about this band today and a coworker showed me a youtube video of what they're like.
My question is not a joke, but the existence of this band may be?
Help me understand? Wtf this is? Is this an attempt to troll the world that people have accepted as "rock music" so they kept going? Is this "real music" and I'm the idiot?

It feels like elevator music for people in the "Beavis and Butthead" universe.

WTF IS HAPPENING?! (And no I'm not just talking about their absolutely ludicrous appearance, I'm talking about the whole package. The music sounds like LSD fueled song intros looped together without ever reaching a chorus, ever.

Hey! Yes I do!

See now what "line" did we just cross? This just became what my brain thinks of as music. It has a progression, takes you on a journey that's more than a few inches deep.

So, i'm thinking you're big into vocal melodies, strong chord progressions, and more traditional scales/time signatures (although Sleep Token have some complex ones). The fact that AdP doesn't have a singer, uses microtones, toned down the heaviness, and play in odd time signatures are probably keeping you from sinking your teeth into them. You kind of have to imagine the lead guitar loops more like lead vocal lines to be able to see where they fit into the songs.
