I like music from the 90's and up the most. 60's/70's **** will die with the baby boomer generaiton. Bring it yourself, old man

EDIT: I'm too drunk to be able to figure out exactly what youre talking about. If we're talking about the music made by younger musicbanter members, then yeah, sure, I'll amdit that I make nothing but 100% electronic no-talent garbage that has no soul. I'll show myself the door before this gets awkward.

Not going to happen. Way too much classic stuff from that era to not live on.

Think about all of the new and groundbreaking **** from those two decades that still resonates today.

Nah, I'll just join you. Cheers!

Unless of course you're not a mindless elitist without a real opinion.

I know that a hell of a lot of foundational work was done back then, but how many young-ish people still listen to that stuff? I'm probably wrong. Everyone I've ever met tells me I'm wrong in not appreciating the Beatles. I guess I just can't connect to the zeitgeist of that time, but I was born in 1981 so why would I.
Maybe Led Zeppelin, Simon and Garfunkel, Janis Joplin, etc. etc. etc. will live on. I saw a 12ish year old kid lecturing his mom on the merits of early Black Sabbath a few years ago. These are strange times. But maybe somehow in a good way.

Cheers. Red wine for the win (in relative moderation).

I hate the Pixies and I hate AC/DC, but I don't get how they are even remotely similar. This offends me on behalf on their respective fan bases.

The Batlord

Nah for real, young people don't listen to the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, or Janis Joplin. We listen to Zeppelin, but in a generation or two I imagine even that will die. Like, seriously, how many of our peers have actually even heard a Janis Joplin song? So far as I know I haven't. She's dead and our generation considers her so.

I just know her name (Janis Joplin) because I've watched a thousand music documentaries and read a thousand articles and reivews of various kinds of music, so she'd come up as a reference here and there, but I can't recall a single song. Maybe stuff dies slower these days thanks to the internet, but ultimately, every generation will have it's own thing and the past will have to step down. Kind of depressing maybe, but that depends how you take it.
