The Bloodhound Gang website has lots of decent moosic. Check out "Yellow Fever" or "A Lap Dance Is So Much Better When the Stripper Is Crying". You can't go wrong.

What happened to decent music? Here goes...

In the late 70's/ early 80's, people with little or no musical talent (i.e. non instumentalists and tone deaf singers) who fancied themselves as musicians decided to get into music using the revolutionary piece of kit which changed a lot of things in music, some good, some bad. This item was called the synthasizer.

Once every Tom, Dick and Harry out there owned one, they didn't need to form a band or learn real instruments: they could "synth" all the instruments and sounds they needed all by themselves!

However, due to an item known as a "sampler", the same talentless people could now steal parts of other songs and "re-mix" them to their hearts desire. From there, the whole music scene goes to crap.

In about 1990, computer generated dance music (or "rave"/techno) became the order of the day. From there, a lot of credible bands just couldn't keep up and decided to either follow the might synth or disband. A good example of this is the band Underworld. Their most famous song, "Born Slippy", is a pale reflecton of the bands original incarnation: They were a heavy metal band.

Since then, pop music has nearly all been wrote on synth's and now with the added bonus of voice cleaning tools, any talentless bimbo with a good looking face and hot body can be a popstar without having any singing talent!! It's true!! Examples being: Spice Girls, S club 7, Boyzone, etc. No talent, all crap.

However, there is hope...

There are still lots of good bands out there if you look hard enough. If you like guitar based music then check the Editors out, they rule!! I advise you to stear well clear of the pop charts, MTV and other such channels (unless you want to watch adverts all day and the same video's repeated over and over and over...)

Remember Kids:

Learn to play an instrument. Synth are good if you do music like Aphex Twin and Autechre but they should not be used to hide talentless people who sell records because of the way they look, not the way they perform.

I am an enemy of the corporate pop/dance music buisness!!

That's probably obvious though....

depend on your definition of decent, Britney spears is decent if you're a prepubecent teenage girl. However my biggest bug bear is that severe lack of songs that you can hum to as demonstrated by hillary 'i want to be a grown up so much i forgot that i gotta grow boobs first' duff or her 'rival' lindsay wotsherface

Manufactured bands sicken me too. These talentless nobodies are put together by huge recording companies (mainly for their looks- which ideally have to appeal to twelve year old girls), some very average songwriters create sounds for them, faceless musicians put mundane beats to the even more tiresome lyrics, and idiots go out and buy this rubbish. Making the aforementioned talentless tossers fabulously wealthy.

The people who really deserve this kind of recognition simply don’t seem to get it. The pioneering doctors, scientists and genuinely gifted artists seem to be pushed out of the limelight and onto obscure ‘arts’ programmes on obscure channels in the early hours of the morning. Whilst the useless celebrity trash out there gets all the airtime. Something is terribly wrong with the world.

Where is all the genuine talent these days? Okay, there are a number of singers and songwriters, actors and performers, etc, who, in my opinion, deserve fame and recognition, but not the incredulous amount of nobodies currently suckling on it.

Of course, we have to blame the media for this. They are the ones who are shoving these talentless arseholes into our faces day in and day out. We should boycott the lot of them!

And the biggest problem we have with these horrible, horrible people is that they actually think that they deserve all this attention. We have actually convinced these people that they are genuinely talented, gifted, and wondrous beings of our time. And that, my friends, is our own entire fault.

It is unbelievable to me, to think that people out there in the real world still buy music by bands that are manufactured. The whole process sickens me. It is a huge marketing ploy to sell this trash to the big spenders in this market (as I said, the twelve year old girls) and it is killing real music. For this reason, Britain will never produce another band as talented as The Beatles.

For The Beatles, you see, met as youngsters and finely honed their craft. Manufactured tripe such as Westlife were introduced to each other in a recording studio after they had auditioned to be in a ‘band’. They were thrown together, given some words to sing and taught how to perform. So all chances of genuine creativity are immediately eradicated from the formula. It can’t happen. They can’t work together to create new sounds and harmonies, experiment with their creativity (because they have none) or try to work on different instruments (as none of them can play anything, I am led to believe). So how the hell did they get where they are?

The Beatles developed and progressed at an alarming rate. If you compare their first album ‘Please Please Me’ to their last ‘Abbey Road’, the average listener would find it hard to believe that they were created by the same band, let alone only seven years apart. Those seven years took them on a journey through the skiffle sound, rock and roll, psychedelia, ballads, experimental electronic pop and acoustic songs on massive varieties of topics. Truly gifted people.

And the young and genuinely talented in this country should be given more of a chance to grow, develop and express themselves artistically, so maybe, just maybe, someday soon, another bunch of people can come along and again rewrite music history as the four boys from Liverpool did. Unfortunately, in a manufactured, 3-minute-attention-span-society like the one most of us in the western world live in today, it is never going to happen.

And it’s tragic.

The reason record companies manufacture bands is obvious. They send out a marketing team to investigate what kind of people buys most records. The answer is (as I’ve now mentioned on numerous occasions), twelve-year-old girls. And what does the average twelve-year-old girl want? Musically creative composers with experimental new sounds and intriguing suggestions about complex chords, album construction and unique approaches to songwriting, or cute boys who can dance? Unfortunately, the answer is the latter.

And therefore, music dies.

It’s also much cheaper for a recording company to manufacture bands (that is, make them audition for the part so they are eager- these people are more fame hungry than money hungry so will work for anything in order to obtain adulation) than to go out, find genuine talent, and then have to try and outbid other companies for their signatures. It really makes me angry that an industry that has the opportunity to be so consistently creative is denying this by chasing the pounds instead of the talent.

I have seen bands play down at my local live venue which are better than anything you can see on TV. There really are some genuinely talented people out there- unique performers, songwriters, and altogether different and fresh acts.

And it’s not just the music industry. It is in search of the easy money by these multi-national corporations which is stifling all creativity, not just in this country, but also across the world.
