My understanding of the word banger is it’s reserved for good songs. There are many good slow songs as well, but the word banger seems to imply something more intense and bombastic. So, is it appropriate to describe slow songs as a banger?

    Good example! There was a time when “hogwash” literally meant the slop fed to pigs, then it meant cheap liquor, and eventually bad writing. These days it means “BS” and you’d be ridiculous to pretend that “only” the original definition had any meaning.
