New Country vs. Old Country (singer, blues, pop, rock)

Ostromite · 12-27-2004, 05:07 PM

Why should I be glad that music I love is turning into music I hate? I'd rather have the genre die than mutate into an incoherent breed of pop music. I have no blind devotion to country music as a genre, I love any music that has raw emotion in it (as old country did) and I hate music that is created to sell records (like new country is, as well as 95% of all new music).

And by the way, Josie, no offense to you either, but if old country gives you a headache, you have no business listening to new country. That's like when people say Linkin Park rock but they can't stand Jimi Hendrix.
