Buttrock would be a better term for most of today's "rock" because it's definitely anything but. I'd rather listen to Breaking Benjamin or Theory of a Deadman (not that I'm much of a fan of either) before some fag whispering about how he used to bundle up when he was cold or some goon singing about chugging cough syrup. It's a repeat of the late-70s lite-rock shitshow that ruined radio back then. Streaming is nice and all, but what I've found with starting a station with a newish band that owns amps and pedals (say Cage the Elephant for example), it's still going to try and shove all the folk and lite-rock poo poo down your throat. After a few days or weeks of tweaking it you will end up with something listenable. You just have to be patient. Most of the "rock" playlists on Spotify are pretty lovely, too. The classic rock and hip hop playlists are usually pretty decent, though.

abigserve posted:Skillful music played on real instruments in a day before auto tuning and over produced shows is enjoyable in a different way than listening to modern music. I like crap like "I'm an albatroiz", it's fun to listen to, but you can't appreciate it on a deeper level. Lol classic rock isn't skillful music played on real instruments. There were a few good lead guitarists and a couple of talented drummers in prog bands but bass and singing skills are really lacking in 99% of rock bands. I mean that's kind of the appeal because they're all so lovely and low rent you and your friends can sit in a garage and do a good job covering them in a few months time for your high schools battle of the bands. Lol that musical talent is now taken as some sort of advantage that classic rock has when Beyonce could out sing 99.99% of rock singers when she has a cold.

I mean I listen to a lot of classic rock but there are plenty of newer bands that are great especially since indie rockers seem to be rediscovering that it's okay to actually rock out

I like how a thread making fun of people who only listen to classic rock has turned into a thread for those people to talk about how totally awesome classic rock is.

Don't want to say everything is relative here guys or some the answer is in the middle bullshit but have some historical perspective. A lot of what we call classic rock met the same criticisms as we're throwing down on modern music. I'm sure people called The Beatles poo poo in comparison to jazz and Chuck Berry was ruining white kids with black music. gently caress, in 1969 when you had Floyd, Dylan, Joplin, and Hendrix, the song at the top of the charts was Sugar Sugar by The Archies - a loving song by a band that doesn't even exist. Give it forty years and people will be like 00s was when they made REAL music.

I can't tell if the people itt defending classic rock with that old 'that was what real music sounded like!' argument are trolling or not. That's so juvenile I just can't take it seriously

If you don't mind lyrics that aren't in English, the French and Dutch rap scenes are pretty good, like IAM and Diam's, and Dice-Cream, T-Slash and Brainpower.
