Apparently, Lil Wayne fans are amongst the dumbest people around, but I didn't necessarily need a study to make me aware of this. I guess it's important to remember that this is a study of correlation and not causation, but all the same. The "dumbest" bands I listen to would be The All American Rejects and Fall Out Boy I suppose, but for the most part, I listen to pretty smart music.
Take a look for yourself and see how you rate. I took the chart and highlighted all of the artists currently in my iTunes library. The farther left they are, the lower the people who liked them scored on their SAT's.
The chart highlighted with the artists I listen to. (click here for the unvandalized version) You have to click it to embiggen it and make it not so blurry.

I must be smart, I love Sufjan and Counting Crows and all the others you put a ring around, except your 'dumb' bands :P jk! <3
What is with Foo Fighters scoring so low? booo I always knew they were too mainstream!
I just saw one tiny problem, Hinder is placed to high bc anybody who can handle that clearly doesnt have working brain cells.
Wow this is very amusing!
So really, people who listen to U2 are smarter than people who listen to Beck? Is U2 smarter music than Beck? Or David Bowie? Or Pink Floyd? LMAO
So smartasses like Beethoven, how predictable.
Interesting study!
Great find, Caramel Bear :D
But... John Legend scores lower than Norah Jones?
I like both of them... but if I try to study with Norah Jones playing in the background, I'll opt for my pillows instead of my books.
