re: Why is Classic Rock so Much Cooler than Modern Rock?

What does that have to do with talent?
Uh, pitch control, time correction, sampling the one section that was good - etc. can all combine to make a good looking bad sound as good as they look.
I'm not saying it is as pervasive in rock as it is in pop, but - I don't trust the talent of any act, rock, country, blues, soul etc., that hit after, say 2000 or so - I'd have to hear a raw mix to change my mind.
The days of Dr. Hook or Kansas - bands ugly enough to crack mirrors, making it solely based on their talent are long, long, long gone.

There's plenty of talented rock bands out today. Old people just like to think everything was better in their day.

pitch control
I don't believe a lot of the successful modern rock acts use this a whole lot. Just because T-Pain uses auto-tune doesn't mean all artists do.

time correction
I'm not sure what you mean by this.

A lot of the established modern rock bands don't do this unless it is just for additional effect.

Or you can just go watch them live and see for yourself.
The gripes seem to be about things that took more time to do back in the day rather than today, which has nothing to do with talent.
