I grew up on music like Hip Hop, Grunge, Rock, etc. Mostly ninties stuff and some eghties stuff. I consider my self a tolerant person when it comes to music and appriciate all varieties, but I can't help but notice that all of the new music coming out is a load of crap. All the idiot rappers rapping about all thier bitches and money. All the idiot wanna be punk bands that play up anti-socialism and anti-government just to sell records. All the stupid country artists singing about the stupidest **** around. I find my self listening to oldies that were before my time from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's. When is something worth while going to come out?

The rubbish the kids are listening to now is all about killing cops and having children by multiple women. Am I the only one who worries about the negative effect this will have on this generation? I grew up on music that tried to encourage peace and brotherhood, where did all of that music go? I saw too much violence in the sixties and seventies in Dublin and recently in the Sudan, don't want to hear about killing from someone who doesn't know the true horror of death.

I hear ya! I'm kinda the same way. I love 70s and 80s music. I feel like allot of artists today don't have REAL talent. I don't really like rap anymore like I did back in the day.

Yeah, it started getting bad in the late 60s and has only gotten worse, of course that is my opinion. My mother says is started getting bad in the 50s and my grandparents (when still alive) said is all went to heck in the 30s & 40s.

Try Interpol, Ryan Adams, Iron & Wine, The Decemberists, Damien Rice, Muse, Belle & Sebastian, David Gray. I could go on, but I won't.

Nope. It DEF" ain't just you, dude.
Blame crap like American Idol & the current musical landscape of pop. All lightweight, vapid, disposable garbage.
If you wanna hear some great new rock being made, ignore the mainstream crap & look to indie rockers....that & the classic rockers will always be there to fall back on through every dumb pop trend...

Music's been crap for a long time. It's not about the passion anymore, it's all about greed, money and popularity. Rock and roll is virtually dead (rap or screaming, blaring metal. Take your pick)

I know what ur saying. Def Lepp is pretty hot (if you look behind all the rap and emo crap) and you get beat up for listening to "Pour some Sugar on Me" or "Rock On" (wich is doing good on the rock charts) and then you get pepole thinking they are all "gangster" I mean how gay is that! I think alot of musiic is CRAP! So just enjoy Def Leppard before u get beat up. (rubbing my head-OUH!)

Its a common agreement between my friends and I that good music died in 1998. Of course, this is just our opinions.
