You could be right, chimps. I stopped listening to music after i heard run DMC, Cool Mo Dee and the first generation of so called Rappers. I say, "so called", because Cab Calloway and those ole school guys did something similar to rap but they were still musicians.
exception to the rule was Curtis Mantronix.
Two hot brothers (no homo)

Shock factor's always been in music. Wagner loved it. Your second point about actually playing instruments (and being driven to play) is bang on, tho. :'(
-
musicians.
Thats the word I was looking for. When did people stop being musicians?

Shock factor With some talent though?
-
American metal is lame, for the most part.
-
idol, x-factor. the funny thing is, for the most part, the winners are forgotten within a month or two of winning ::)

Gimmicks/shock are fine, but if you have some tangible talent, music-wise, that's the lasting, real thing.
Heard on the radio yesterday: the Kiss cruise. Yes, you can take a cruise with Gene and Paul, and celebrate the triumph of spectacle over art. Book today, Swede. ;D

haha. When I was a kid every friday in school, I guess in like second grade or something, we had something special going on in the class, some times playing a band, and sometime someone would tell stories etc.
Anyway, one time me and a few friends did a kiss "concert" ;D painting and everything. I was the drummer lol.
After I saw this 1995 at 6 yr old I was hooked.
I ofc looked up the Real band right after lol.
edit* lol, first comment has the exact same story but he was 7 (the comment section is Packed with the same story apparently)
edit 2* wow, that sounded better back in the day lol

That's cool. One of the first records (LPs), if not the first I ever bought, was Kiss Alive. I still remember the look on my Mom's face when I brought that one home. Maybe the same reaction parents had when kids brought home Beatles, Presley or 'race' music?
-
i truly believe that america should be strucked with a disaster of biblical proportions to have it produce good music again. what a shit country. filthy rich inthahood boys dominating young kids minds.

Yeah, I had the paper gun too...haha!
My friend bought the "Originals", the first 3 Kiss albums in one collection, which we would blast on his parent's 6 foot long console stereo when they weren't home.
Yes, we're getting old.

The truth.
Computers killed popular music, because that upper crust of people (5-10 percent) stopped buying what the major labels gave them the second they had choice. 15 years ago the industry was led somewhat by people who really had an interest in pushing music forward and were content control for the industry.
Today all the good music is independent, and you need to spend alot of time sifting through shit to get descent stuff, but it's totally there, it's just a quality control mechanism that labels grew up on have flew.
A simple example is in sports if all the top recruiters all fled the country for china, american sports would turn to shit fast. The labels relied on audiophile to lead public opinion and they've been bipassed.

Uh, no. The music business is about the scummiest out there. Always has been. It's all about making a buck, and if a talented artist needs to get thrown under the wheels to do so, so be it. The musical playing field is littered with dead, compromised or beggared artists.

The truth, I grew up in the crossroads era, I was the first kid on my block to have napster, and I've seen the same people who had 200 cd collections in 1995 switch to downloading everything the second they had options.
There's a myth that true music fans(the people who leaders of public taste) buy cds, when the truth is anyone who's looking for the best music out there 9 times out of 10 go online.

I agree. The internet was the best thing to have happened to the music industry in recent years. Radio has an extremely limited number of artists and songs they are allowed to play due to corporate sponsorship. The net brings music to people that otherwise would have gone unheard in the 'radio days'.
Musicians may have to play live to make a living now ( meaning me haha ), but everyone can now produce their own music and have it reach a worldwide audience.

''caught in the act'', ''backstreet boys'' and ''spice girls'' everything else is history

X2 music is in it's purest and most natural form. It's an golden age, and where all the sellouts/posers, have been cut out of the loop. If you love music, and not the sideline shit(girls, popularity, status) your doing good.

Check Esperanza Spalding

There are still many great artists. Just visit a decent festival, like for example South by Southwest in Austin or Roskilde and Lowlands in Europe.
It's the fucking mainstream media like MTV that screws up the majority with trash like Gaga & Bieber, so blame them!

Black Sabbath might make a reunion, so it's far from completely lost situation.

Too many good metal bands still being pumped out of that tiny country.

Completely agree. The combination of great artists (with talent!!), vids and VJ's, made me an addicted teenager.
-
mtv was nice in the time when they had beavis and butthead and michael jackson who made mtv. its really disgusting these days. they are co responsable for generation nothing and i hope they will ever be on trial for that.

face book and youtube ruined everything ,, they ruined the generation they created a mess that will fuck us for many years and probably will bring humans to some kind of end alot further than social end
here is the first clip ,,again read the buttom sentence! smart genious fella! geoge michael is smart geniurous fellas too! good he stop writing this generation is not worth good music when they give the whore spears time of day to balonie around
