I think the Aracade Fire are a good band but are very overrated in my opinion.. there not one of the greatest bands of all time(not that anyone said they were or will be).. and i doubt they ever will be.. there just one of the very few good canadain bands.. thats why there so noticed.. cause everything else that comes out of canadain sings in Las Vegas.. and or are pop "punk" or so they say they are bands.. which well are doing great in south america for some strange reason.. anyway you get my point

but as you all know as for newer like rock bands i like what some would say are crap.. you know Cold, Breaking Benjamin, Matchbox 20, Goo Goo Dolls, and others.. Pearl Jam, Radiohead, etc..

i was stuck back into ONLY liking old music.. classic rock and metal. Led Zeppelin, Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, John Lennon, the Beatles, Iron Maiden.. etc..

anyways it wasn't until i really heard Cold that i got back into newer music. I always liked Nirvana, and Matchbox 20, and the Goo Goo Dolls. but i found myself more open to other bands.. better and or jsut as good bands..

i think there is more or just as much crap nowa days, but only its more noticed now because of the media. I mean i went through my "fathers" records and he had lots of crap there.. many 45's that were made i think to break when mad at the record player that works when it wants to kind of thing. i mean there were so many crap bands back then.. just dj's wouldn't play it.. and when they did if no one liked it, they stopped playing it. unlike now it doesn't matter because there's so many people liking music for so many reason other then if its good writing, singing, and playing and or playing live.. now its video's hot chicks, what not.. people like crap music because of what it ad's whatever again i'm sure you get my point.

I didnt meen its annoying about like loads of people knowing about them its just the way people just hop on the band wagon.

In fact i think the bottom line is, its not actually possible to win an arguement about music

i also like coldplay. and wolf mother. theyre kind of new. i was just commenting on the extreme lack of bands i like. did this thread long time ago. oojays right. wasnt a well thought out thread. meh.

it might not have been well thought out.. but once people get past that and then can explain how they feel on the topic like i did.. and thanks to this thread i wasn't bored for 5 minutes.. :)

Eh, it is new music, and most of it is bad, my opinion of course... but it all sounds the same, some of the most boring, repetetive lyrics and vocals....

Some good ones though

The guitarist for Audioslave is killer, and i love chris cornell's voice

But then again, also developed from rage against the machines, >.<

Staind is great too

^ Well, how innovative/original are Staind and Audioslave?

Oh I love those bands. I agree with you. :)

Erm.......... NO!!!!

EDIT: Oh... I thought you were suggesting they were crap... My bad, AGAIN BOO BOO JUMPS TO CONCLUSIONS!

:o:

There was just as much crappy music in the 70's as there is today.
