My answer-there is always good music out there. You just have to look. A lot of mainstream scenes for any genre of music are pretty poor and music video channels and mainstream radio will never dictate what I should be listening to or tell me what is really happening.

I never listen to the radio these days and I don't have a clue what's top of either the album or singles charts. The whole point of being on sites like these is to share and enjoy different viewpoints on music that is NOT mainstream.

Of course i like a lot of mainstream music but it has always sucked.

Every decade has had good and bad music but some of us don't hear about them because only the good bands remain behind. It just seems that mainstream rock is sucking now because you are growing up with it. Trust me there has always been plenty of crap music around.
