It's the first sign you are growing old. "You call this music! Eddie Van Hallen sneezes better stuff than this!"
First, there are currently some good indie bands, where you will never have to go back to pop rock again.
Second, producers/promoters make more money creating bands and groups (Devo, Spice Girls, P Cat Dolls) that hiring bands because all the royalties go to them.
Producers don't want to touch rock bands because some have said they think 80% of the music that the band will produce will get pirated.

That's all perception, and depends on what modern music you hear.
If you only listen to what's on the top 40 radio stations, then you're not going to get good examples of it. You can't judge modern music based on a band like Fall Out Boy or "artists" like the Pussycat Dolls. If you look into some more obscure bands/artists, you, might find some melodic modern music that you like.

I think we are in a different generation where young people admire songs about car and Rolex watches. I don't know if you listen to rap but there are some raps that are really good...like common he is good. Any how what can we do we have to go with the flow!

In today's music buisness, acting sells better than music.
Weird, isn't it?
And listen to every band that penguinsupersoldier listed. They just might redeem your opinion of modern music. Of course, none of those bands are anything like what's popular, they're just recent and therefore "modern"

Because stupid teenagers are willingly paying good money for crap. The buying of crap increases the amount of crap produced. Sorry, the current music situation is killing me. I haven't been able to listen to the radio for at least three years because of it. I have spent lots of money on cds instead.

Because you're just listening to the radio.
Try searching online, you've gotta find something good.
