Yes, the Trio song was a bit of a special case. Remmler was attempting to deconstruct and critique the genre, and was well aware of how the mindlessly repetitive and simplistic and musically boring the core was once all the frills were stripped away. That was actually the whole point, as can be seen in the video they did https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqTBlft8gQA
Notice how bored everyone looks. The sheer lack of energy. The guy pausing to light a cigarette and mount it on his guitar. The repetitive wave of the "audience" that holds awful, amateurish drawings of their faces (i.e. any moron with a synth could produce this crap).
It's a bit like looking at Picasso's bull in a grotesquely comical way...
