Rock music was the first salvo at the cultural destruction of America and the undermining of decency and promotion of the degenerate.
Rap music started to be pushed next to accelerate the collapse of traditional American values with the promotion of excessive greed, selfishness, violence, etc. |

Is it possible that Rock 'N Roll has just run it's course?
There was a TON of innovation in the genre up through the end of the 1990s but what has been done since then that is uniquely distinct to the modern era? Alternative blew up so big in the 1990s because the mainstream had never heard anything like it before. Same could be said about every prior decade and the type of rock that typified it. The 80s was definitely a break from the 70s and so on and so forth all the way back to Elvis and Chuck Berry. |

The masses need something to chew on, people. Always have.
I personally despite Luke Bryan, for example, but the Luke Bryans of the world are the ones who create big industry. You may hate big industry, but without it you don't have any of these smaller artists making it. Without it guys like me are delivering pizzas instead of working in cool little venues. There simple is no economy for the small, independent, creative musicians of this world without large scale pop. And some of these smaller independents go on to greater things. But they don't do it without the infrastructure created by big media. |

I'll give an example of what I talked about in my last post.
People love to hate on Live Nation, but give me a Live Nation show any day of the week vs. some of the shit I get from these local promoters and venues. Live Nation knows how to buy, promote, and produce a show. And they give out checks that night. They have their flaws, but they create a stable environment, without which the lunatics would be running the asylum. The music industry needs the lunatics, of course, but someone has to be there to build and maintain their recreational areas. |

She said, baby, they're not new, and pulled one of their albums from the 70's out of the bookcase. Daughter was shocked and upset she was listening to her "mothers music" We got a good laugh out of it. |

Grunge, which I used to enjoy more when I was more angsty and in my early 20's. was "life sucks and need a pity party since mommy didn't love me enough." music. There were some great songs out of that era and some great bands but I have to be in a certain mood for it these days. I used to travel out of state to see Pearl Jam but I just don't connect with it anymore. Still love Smashing Pumpkins and Stone Temple Pilots though. |

The "new rock" all sounds the same. It's emo-scream crap. Rock died, IMO, in the 2000's. As kids we grew up on rock, the later generations grew up and are growing up on N'sync and Back Street Boys and Justin Bieber and Brittany Spears and Taylor Swift. They don't want grit, they want feel-good. Rock ain't that, so it died.

The cultural cohesion that the Boomer generation enjoyed is dead and isn’t coming back. Everything is atomized.
As stated by that recent Rick Beato video. For all of Taylor Swift’s current success, she’s the most successful cult artist in her generation. There are millions of people who’ve never heard her music. She’ll never reach the level of popularity and cultural awareness that Cyndi Lauper did in the 80’s much less Madonna or Michael Jackson. |

My pet peeve is when some asshat rolls up next to me at a light playing some type of shitty hip-hop or rap where all you hear is base and some autotuned dude slow talking about nothing.
Gone are the days of talented artists who could write intelligent and meaningful lyrics, sing with incredible range and control, and play an instrument through utter genius and flair. Sure, there's always been inane faddy stuff (like the Macarena) but at least it was somewhat exotic or diverse in style and sound. Remember Despacito? People still yearn for this stuff. Whenever I get depressed about the state of music today, I listen to songs like "How Deep is Your Love". Yes, it's Bee Gees, but they were incredible song writers, and Barry wrote that song in less than a day upon request from the Saturday Night Fever Producer. The lyrics are heartfelt and really convey how beautiful love can be when two people fight off the forces of the world that try to tear them apart. IDK... I think the world is going sideways partly because art has lost all meaning, and Western society has lost all grounding in a common uplifting culture that holds people to higher standards. |
