You can't just comletely dismis an entire genre of music. No matter the genre, there are always a few bands that stand out above the rest.

rock is on a terrible decline, since the late 90s possibly even before that.

Alright, everybody? What's the story: is it just me, or is pop music these days getting crapper and crapper? And is it just me, or is rock music getting better and better? Am I right? Leave a comment if you want and if you agree, join my region ("help kill disco") ;)

Pop music has never been great, but yes it probably is getting worse. Personally, I prefer heavy metal.

That song did nothing for me personally. I'm not a big fan of growling lyrics. Despite what many people think, it actually takes a LOT of skill to do well, though. Just not my thing.

Pop hasn't just been getting crappier; it's been crappy for years. It's not just pop, either, but any of the other musics pedaled by the music industry beefed up with drum machines, music videos, trendy images, etc. I stay away from pop, rock, metal, rap, and so on. It's all just commercialized nonsense intended to milk us. I could go on for days if I wanted to, but I don't intend to here.

You, sir, are obviously not a fan of death metal! I found that to be a most delightful composition! Oh well, to each his own!!!:cool:

Rock is on the decline? Just commercial crap?

Clearly you people haven't listened to the Mars Volta. The Mars Volta is the greatest band to ever grace this earth.

I really couldn't agree more. I pretty much hate rap about as much as the next person, pop doesn't really sound so cool anymore and rock is only good because of the beats its made in todays world.

:fluffle:

That aside, neither pop nor rock music is getting better. Pop is being shoved out of the limelight to be replaced by rap and "indie rock" (as opposed to real rock). Meanwhile, rock and metal is about as good as it always was, assuming that you don't include the aforementioned "indie rock" and pop-punk like My Chemical Romance.

A lot of indie is quite good if you do some digging. Or even some of the more mainstream bands, like New Pornographers and Architecture in Helsinki.

Modest Mouse can go to hell, however.

I gave up that noise, and other forms of popular music, at the tender age of 18, myself and never looked back.
