The 80's did not kill rock and roll. it is in simple terms whilst there became into not something left to sing approximately and new varieties have been required to maintain the industry entertained. the top of the Vietnam and chilly wars killed rock and roll. without great reasons for dissent over activities that affected the completed globe left, the spirit of insurrection quietened down and persons in simple terms have been given on with their mediocre lives. Enslaved by potential of the capitalistic nature of our consumable lifestyle. Now come again to paintings and pay off your toys.....
