It's not what I'm into, I personally think all that art rock and synth/electro stuff, for the most part is shite, I'm sure there are some exceptions to that but there you go. |

I've not given them a proper full listen, so it wouldn't be fair for me to say they're awful, but I heard Static Disaster, Where I Am and another one and really wasn't impressed. (Gonna sound like an old person now..)
Just bloody noise noise. Modern music ![]() |

I believe music was slighty better back in the 70's. During early 80's it was still awesomely influence by what took placed in the 70's but starting with 1980 it went downhill gradually throughout the decade getting worse and worser so by the time you get to Grunge people thought it was greatest thing since slice bread, maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, who knows. When Nirvana came along and there was little of UK bands ever heard on the radio until Oasis, but there was a small riff between US and UK musical taste that was slowly growing ever since 70's. During the 60's it seemed that the US and the UK were on the same page, a large part due to the British Invasion, which America was the recipient of the invading groups. It is a shame riff of musical taste happened because UK bands like The Jam or The Libertines or whoever are really like influential to most indie bands we hear now. I have to say it's the Post Grunge Era that was the halcyon days for Alternative Rock, music in general, probably the best music heard since the 70's.
Why the 70's were so awesome: 1. Analog recording, everything was done on tape. 2. The music scene in the UK was unbelievabley innovative in the 70's, with Progressive Rock, Pub Rock, Punk, Post-Punk & New Wave 3. Brian Eno, started out in the 70's one of the greatest producers of all time, with a mind blowing roster of bands he produced. 4. John Peel, a DJ with Midas touch 5. 70's UK bands: Buzzcocks The Clash Elvis Costello and the Attractions Dave Edmunds Peter Gabriel Genesis The Jam Joy Division Nick Lowe Paul McCartney and The Wings The Motors Gary Neuman and The Tubeway Army Graham Parker and The Rumours Pink Floyd The Rezillos Rockpile The Rumours The Smirks Squeeze and of course bands that started in the 60's like Led Zeppelin The Rolling Stones Traffic Yes UK turned out some great bands in the 80's too like The Cure Duran Duran Def Leppard The Fixx New Order The Psychedelic Furs The Smiths But it wasn't the same since the 70's. I know a lot of Bob Dylan and Lady Ga Ga fans are thinking "what are you talking about?" Music rules in the 60's/00's respectively, well that's just my opinion.

![]() I just can't stand what I've been hearing, I've tried so hard to find some obscure modern bands that will just relate to me and I can't seem to do it, I just end up going back and listening to the 60s 70s and 80s, I wish someone would come a long with 2 guitars, a bass, drums and a voice, make a record where they plug in a play, none of this synth bollocks. |
