whaat ever happen to music

like the doors,canned heat,john sebashtin,joe cocker,bob dylan,the beatles,the who, and such

 

times change...music in the mainstream mostly sucks, but some of the less known musicians around now have made some of the best music i have ever heard in my life.


those artists of the 60's/70's had their time

 

ummm, like rock and roll? and folk music? and folk based rock music?

 

yeah true like
perfect cicrle
death cab
build to spill
bright eyes
radio head
coldplay
old korn

 

hmmm, yes, because that's the good music
radiohead is the shit
but....those others
eh, well, this is all my opinion anyways

 

i'm pretty open minded when it comes to music
i mostly repect it alll
but some is not so good

 

The aliens took them to their mother space all for themselfs
those bastards!


(Kiddding)

 

i love built to spill! radiohead is great to, and brighteyes and deathcab isnt to bad i guess...the rest...eh...



but open mindness is good.

 

Well...I don't know about those last 6.


Otherwise The Mars Volta is badass. Animal Collective is also some good listening.

 

Music's went down since the 80's really.

 

my class was talkin about music and culture art and such
and this one kid said it's stupid how we learn about it cuz it wasnt imortant
i was sooooooooooooooooooo mad we debated it forever i almost walk out of the room

 

The Mars Volta is pretty kickass

 

Know what is awesome, being able to pick out things in contemporary songs that either intentionally or by accident, sound like one of the inovating bands of the 60's. For example, the backwards guitar solo from The Ladies and Gentlemen's song "Thew It All Away" ( you can listen to it here http://www.myspace.com/theladiesandgentlemen to see what I mean). It sounds like it is right off revolver.

But yeah, new music is awesome...

 

I'm not saying it's bad... just started going downhill since the 80s in the rock scene. This "music" genre we call "Rap & Hip Hop" started gaining popularity.

 

naw, everynow and then there is something that isnt that inspiring, and just really commercial. Poptarts and singing groups of the 90's (but they are just like mowtown, so really can't say anyhitng horrible against them except that they were products and less musical than the originators like smokeyrobinson and the temptations and such). the 70's had disco, which was sort of on the same level as the 90's stuff in terms of hindsight

 

i got three wordz for yas....

devendra mothafuckin banhart.

 

korn..


well, in my opinion there is plenty of good music around, you just have to find it.

 

80"s big hair and guys in spandex hummmm...different
but my mom say the 80's where realy fun

 

damn straight

 

My Morning Jacket is good even though their new album is a little bit on the Radiohead side and I despise Radiohead but it's still good.

Macca just put out an album not too long ago which was really really fuckin good too, I didn't think he still had it in him.
