Did you not hear? it's subjective. No crappy music has ever been made. It's just like, your opinion.

Sounds like something that someone who likes crappy music would say.

There are a ton of good bands/artists making music right now, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Animal Collective, Beck, Feeding People, Modest Mouse, Alabama Shakes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Neko Case... I could go on for 30 minutes.


Music is better now than it was in the 90's or early 2000s imo.

Most of what gets posted here is about bands from pre 1995, the rest of the world has moved on. I still love some old stuff but I will never stop trying to discover new bands that I like.


You post a thread on someone like Modest Mouse or Beck here and maybe get 6 replies and can start a Motley Crue thread and it get to 3+ pages pretty quick.

I know, right. I'm just repeating what I was told in the 100 page thread on this subject.

True dat. I like a lot of the bands he mentioned as well, but it's basically the list of someone who thinks they listen to cooler music than other people but actually just kind of listens to whatever music pitchfork pimps.

Enjoy your ACDC baw.

ETA: I don't even read pitchfork, but I bet you read Rolling Stone.

You're probably the worst poster on the music board, congratulations.

Regarding older music–music from the 60's to early 70's, let's say–at least there's some consensus on who the top bands were: Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Who, Byrds, Dylan, Jefferson Airplane, Doors, Hendrix and Led Zep would be on just about any list of top artists of the era.

That doesn't exist today. The music scene is so segmented that it's much, much harder to create a general standard of what good music is--and who the top artists are. Each musical segment–metal, rap, country punk, Mongolian psychedelic–has it's own standards, but the agreement stops there, at what each small segment enjoys. The definitions of "good" and "crap" are inward looking and self-contained, hardly the basis for getting a global perspective on things.

That's because today you don't have to listen to only the 10 bands that they play on the local FM station.

Yes, that has something to do with it. Today the platforms for creating and distributing music are 1000 times what they were in 1965.

No Rolling Stone. Mainly Stereogum, the Fader, Brooklyn Vegan, Consequence of Sound, and Aquarium Drunkard.
