Why does most new music suck?


Ok I will have some exclusions to my statement. I'm not talking about classical or jazz. My comment is mostly pointed to rock and pop releases. Don't even get me started on rap.... I don't consider it music. I will admit that I'm an old foggy but come on, where are some talented new groups? I grew up with the Beatles, Who, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Hendrix etc. I sample a lot of new music and the recordings are terrible. The engineers should be fired for producing over compressed shrill garbage. The talent seems to be lost or doesn't exist. I have turned to some folk/country or blues music. It really is a sad state of affairs....Oh my god, I'm turning into my parents.

Its a mistake to underestimate the musical talent levels out there these days. Whether one likes modern music versus older stuff or not, these things only grow and evolve over time. Lotgs of musicians still covering older material and forms if that is what one is interested in.
Exactly. Talented musicians are not necessarily artists. Imagine teaching yourself not only to play an instrument but to come up with some of the best music of all time. There's lots of information available to corroborate the statements I've made. Do some research. Here's where the absolute quashes the idea of subjectivism. Except for the insistent foolhardy of course, thinking he can raise a dead horse and soldier on not realizing he's just standing there.
Instead of just SAYING there is just as much talent as there has ever been. Show us!! Name some names. Any youtubes?

The Frogman submitted examples of what he considers good stuff.

Where are the names and / or youtubes of the current greats?

Present your evidence and this discussion will be over in a few minutes.

Of course, Bill Parcells answered this, and similar questions years ago.
