Is it just a thing in music where whatever was 30 years ago ends up getting revived for a new age? (Thinking of 70s funk in the late 00s early 10s and now the 80’s renaissance)

It's everything from fashion to tv to politics. Nostalgia drives media/life. In the 1980s a bunch of 50s throwback stuff came out. Billy Joel's For the Longest Time is like some early doo wop redone, the Stray Cats were doing rockabilly, and movies like Peggy Sue Got Married/Back to the Future were made.

My sister literally owned a poodle skirt in 1986...

Also we are creeping into 90s reloaded already. I noticed those canvas looking shirts with one front pocket at the store a couple of weeks ago from the 90s, and then one of the jurors on Survivor was wearing the same style the other day...

I didn't say there weren't folk metal bands before the 10s it's that most of them were eurocentric. There's been a significant growth in the genre outside of Europe.

In all seriousness, you got any good suggestions? I've been going through my old pile of metal from early-mid 00s but I've been out of the scene since basically then.

Men who spent the last decade listening to nothing but the same music they have been listening to since their teens and twenties who still have an axe to grind about how new things suck are such a weird and widespread phenomena online. Especially since they just have to make the same stock complaints about how new musicians aren't talented and rely on computers and also have funny names that has been the stock old person complaint about music for the past half a century.

i like the snail mail/soccer mommy melodic girl indie rock scene a lot... i hope more people start to "get it" in the 2020s.

i was thinking a lot about the songs from the first part of the decade that i liked and i pretty much realized it was high highs and low lows. truly wretched poo poo came out in 2010 and 2011

I couldn't parse what the gently caress you were saying until I realized those were band names.

the youtube comments are all from teenagers who are over-analyzing the hell out of a 3 minute pop song like its the deepest, most profound poo poo in the world. Being old and jaded sucks lol

I feel like pop music had a huge comeback in the 2010s. There was a lot of fun dance music that came out.
yeah though i would say the resurgence started more very late 00s with Lady Gaga really making poppy dance music extremely good after a lot of bad nu-metal and buttrock poo poo post 9/11. i mean there was a really good thriving indie euro/aus electro-pop scene in the early-late 00s but it wasn't like 'mainstream'. i think that's kinda died off tho as far as i can tell.

there was also some really bad stuff too tho

God drat that's a good answer.

Can like rock die a little harder, so it's easier to keep track of poo poo. Like according to discogs there were a Million loving albums that were made this decade. That's too much poo poo, and that doesn't include a bunch of obscure bands and even more obscurer soundcloud bullshit.

i started college in 2010 right around the time when EDM was replacing rock as the go to festival music

as a transition period, it was pretty much perfect to be the soundtrack of that era. rock was still kinda popular around that time, but dubstep and electro pretty much killed it completely in the mainstream. edm festivals were pure postive vibes and i look back on those days pretty fondly

early 2010s pop was good as hell

Good things about music from the 2010s:

1) Musicians don't make any money from recordings so everybody tours relentlessly. Music that used to come around once every three years seems to be coming around every six months.
2) Bandsintown and stuff like that make it much, much easier to actually know when things you like are going to be within driving distance.
3) It is easier than ever to listen to a new record every day and live your life completely ignorant of mass-culture music. I have never heard Uptown Road.

Bad things about music from the 2010s:

1) Musicians don't make any money from recordings so more and more new artists are well-off kids who can afford to be musicians in their 20s.
2) Musicans making music that seems expressly designed for its afterlife of movie trailers and car commercials.

i mean as a somewhat serious post, the 2010s were maybe the most important/interesting time for music ever. almost every single popular artists today has roots in soudncloud or youtube. music was democratized and was spread to more people in a way never before seen in human history. my own music was played in several international radio stations and i got on a record label without doing anything except entering a remix competition and doing well on it.

i used to look forward to going through my soundcloud feed in 2012-2014 because there were genuinely innovative things happening all completely without any label support whatsoever. for a while, it really felt like a meritocracy - the artists that made genuinely good music were getting recognized, rather than what would "sell" in the marketplace. odd future was probably the best example of this

i think it started changing around 2015-2016 when youtube and spotify started relying on corporate money to survive. but 2010-2014 was such an interesting era of really raw talent that could easily get millions of hits with a pure DIY mindset that felt reminiscent of early punk

Self- fulfilling, those who do recognise it and go quietly just disappear into enjoying either their own music or stick around and build a new appreciation or eclectic taste. Only the non-self-aware keep screaming into the void as they feel the claws of death rising around them.
