what do you think of today's bands? (Page 1 of 2)

most if it sucks, but there are a few (if rather rare) 'diamonds in the rough' so to speak. I don;t think its the fact that its new that makes it bad, so don't mistake me. i think the pop culture world has come to put more emphasis on image then the quality of the music. Another thing is, (while dont get me wrong there are some awesome stuuf you can do with computers and guitar effects and i really do enjoy them), but we have too many ways to electronically cover up mistakes and make it sound better. Not that I don;t want music to sound better, I just think it ought to sound good without being polished up too. 
  I think the best singers and players are the ones who could sit down in front of you with just thier guitar and thier own voice and still sound great..... so anyway thats just my opinion. Nice to meet another girl who plays by the way.

personally speaking , the best kind of music is the kind you make in the privacy of your own home, if god has blessed you, i love my own brand of music, while apprieciateing others, but yes your right about todays music, its all aimed at teenies, manufactured crap mostly.

yes geraldine, you can say it, you could even post a link to it.
As long as it has something to do with music and you are not spamming continually, feeel free to say what you want.
As long as there is no swearing,cursing, slagging others, spamming porn, it is normally very relaxed in here.

yeah you know really, we talk about how music was so much better when the classic artists were out, but we don't ever think about how there a million other bands that sucked at the same time.
Ive always said good music is good music, dont matter who made it or when.

All You Need is Love

I wouldn't say it all sucks... there's not going to be any music legends from this decade though. sure, everyone will remember hendrix, zeppelin, pink floyd, the beatles, the rolling stones etc. but no ones going to remember fallout boy, or sean kingston 30 years from now... kind of sad, but its the truth.

PS,

Emo is for emotionally disturbed boys who border punk & metrosexuality.
Get over it & stop wining.

lol emos.... never heard of one till i moved to the city a year ago. First time i met one i called em a emu and they got mad. Are emo and punk rock the same thing?
They both wear girls pants and long hair  in the front.....

EMO is generally middle class white kids trying to find a reason to be oppressed.  Perhaps they got the Ford, rather than the Infinity for their birthday.

So that makes you what, Goth?  That's even worse!

Because it's entertaining.

I'm wearing all black right now.  It's because I have dinner reservations later, but I'm going to tell everyone it's because I have a Jonny Cash fetish.

i meant CANT accept the fact
