charlie brown Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Yeah, they were "magical" decades, musically. There's great, melodic, music now, and in every era... you just have to look for it, more, nowadays. That, that isn't "cookie cutter," Pop/Country/"rock," that is. One reason I loved The Pretenders, Tom Petty, and later The Wallflowers...is, that they were not only great bands, but the music was great, as well...plenty of melody, as well as decent/great lyrics. There are other's, as well. They just don't seem to get much "air play," the way the great 50's, 60's and early-mid 70's music did. But, it's a much different world, now. Lots of "choices," in how to listen, never mind what. So... CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxom Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I think good singers died with Joey Ramone... I haven't been wowed by anything to come out of my generation. Tbh, if I could be famous, I'd try to turn rock back to what it once was and I'd definitely recruit some guys from both here and the Fender Forums. I also think computers have no place in the music industry. It's dumb to enhance your sound because you can't play, or to make "music" when all you do is mix and layer a few tracks and can't sing or play an instrument.

Buxom Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I don't think I have a song made past 1996 on my iPod. I'm not sure though, but at least a majority of it is from the 60s-90s. Maybe an occasional funny rap song I hear, but nothing more. I guess I just have an envy of those who were able to live before the internet, before "Planet Wuss" as TAA put it. I just want that childhood where I didn't have the internet, or cellphones, or anything high tech. I just want to see people being people rather than mindless objects. You'd have to read Fahrenheit 451 to understand what I mean. After reading it, my eyes were opened to what a shame the human race has become. But after reading it, I started existing less and living more. (Sorry if I went a bit crazy with this post, but it's a whole bunch of jumbled emotions atm. and I'm really stressed and in a lot of physical pain) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxom Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Was Hendrix against technology? I don't listen to modern music either, except MGMT. No offense but rock n roll died because people stopped progressing. It just became the same boring electric guitar, bass, drums, vocals combination. It was raped until it lost all of its artistic credibility. What are we supposed to sit Sit around and make music like that for eternity Rock n roll isn't a music genre it's a state of mind. Basically, they progressed too much imo. If people learned to play, rather than using a computer to help them, they'd sound better. Also, if people made music for the sake of music, they'd sound better. Most of the bands today are repetitive garbage and shitty sweep solos.

Buxom Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm having doubts about the human race's ability to reach a new milestone in rock. I'll put a gun in my mouth if bands like A7X, BMTH, or BDM get into the RRHF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can trace that influence all the way back to the 18th century (The Classical Period). That is incredible stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
