Stop blaming music and the radio. No one forces you to listen to a damn thing. You have CDs and MP3s for a reason.

Re: Music today sucks so bad
There's always good new music happening. You just have to turn off top 40 radio.
Some of my recent favorite albums are:
The Shins - Port of Morrow (2012)
First Aid Kit - The Lion's Roar (2012)
Mount Eerie - Clear Moon (2012)
Die Antwoord - TEN$ION (2012)

and one of my favorite recent songs and video

First Aid Kit. Excellent music from 19 and 22 year old Swedish sisters. They are my favorite band at the moment.

Re: Music today sucks so bad
maybe this is due to us emerging further into the "age of aquarius" (computers become dominant) and leaving the pisces age (mysticism, music, etc). Sadly we may never see fresh creativity on the scale seen toward the end of the last century in our lifetimes, or for many.

Easy access to porn may contribute, as excessive sex or masturbation often drains creativity.

Many things have contributed to this sharp dropoff.

Re: Music today sucks so bad
I am embarrassed by it. I have two kids and whenever I turn on the radio, 90% of the time it's just plain BAD if it's modern music, crappy electropop, but the worst thing is how empty the music is, how devoid of any value it is, I guess it really reflects on what society has become. A bunch of uber-controlled sheeple obsessed with sex, power and money, utterly narcissitic and superficial to boot.

The last year or two have been the very worst. Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Katy Perry, etc. Singing about trashy subjects, "pushing the envelope" with sex when the envelope has already been shredded a long time ago, they are boring, overhyped, overrated and their empty music attempts to fill the empty souls of the youth today. I'm still in my 30s but I am old enough to recognize how soulless and manufactured all this crap is. It makes 80s music seem truly terrific.

Yes its scary. We had some amazing music in the 80s. At least it was original.

You people think music sucks so bad because all you ever did was listen to the radio, top 40, and whatever msm pushes. Fuck you all, it's because of fuckers like you we live in the world we're in.

I blame commercial radio, lame ass disc jocky's and suck ass television for all things evil in the creative universe today.

Remember music stores? REAL stores where you'd go in and talk to the people working there about an album and they'd show you other's you might like too? Just like the old book stores. Where you'd ask a question and they didn't have to look up the answer on a computer.

Rolling Stone records in Chicago was a favorite haunt of mine. And in California there were book stores with fireplaces you could grab a book, some free tea and sit by the fire and read. And you weren't assaulted with over priced goddawful, predictable Starbucks nerds ignoring the world on their laptops.

From when I was 12, I'm 53 now, you would NEVER find a single "top 40" song in my record collection. NEVER!

I grew up in Chicago on the blues. I only ever listened to college or underground radio like the wizard, WZRD in Chicago, or in L.A. KXLU, that played a lot of my friends music like the original Fiends, L7, Thelonius Monster etc. They'd play 40 minutes of music from classical to noise to speed and surf punk and the DJ would come on and just say "OK, lets hear some more of this shit" and play another 40 minutes of mixed absurdity.

So fuck me, I'm not as "cool" as you.
