Glancing across the top 10 on Itunes it's all annoying 80's synth bubblegum Hip-Hop / Dance shit. Not a single rock song. Am I just being a nostalgic old fart or was music a lot better in 2006?
Nobody plays their own instruments, and if the singers aren't African American they're imitating African Americans. I've got nothing against them, I just hate that there's no variety anymore.
I just went on to get some new songs for my Ipod, and I ended up getting Fleetwood Mac. Fucking Fleetwood Mac. That's what modern music has driven me to.
You should check out some underground death metal bands. I could name a shitload for you. My favorites are bloodbath and opeth. There also is degrade, cannibal corspe, amon amarth, Nile, and some other sweet shit. Also alice and chains have a new album out called a looking in the view. It has some great songs on it. Just because metal isnt popular dosent mean you should whine and complain about modern music. Im pretty sure we will get our turn again soon. Just be patient.
