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.

I guess I just don't get it. What I do get is that certain similarity apparent in everything presented so far except the plagiarized one Rok presented. First time I heard Dark Side Of The Moon in 71, it took a few spins to really get it into my blood as with lots of other music as well. But the potential has to be there. Interestingly enough, as all these bands seem to be trying too hard, the effort it demands to like it is commensurate. It's just work. Where's the fun part?

Csontos,

Say what?

I understand liking something new might take effort, but where does the inference that the bands are also trying too hard as well accordingly come from?

That comment reeks of Narcissism, not an uncommon trait that many of us might share, but worth being aware of if one truly has an interest in keeping an open mind.
I like the "Brian Evans" cut. Nothing new or radical there, but pretty groovy, baby, yeah!! Not pop as defined these days typically (maybe 50 years ago) or rock certainly, but who cares? Forget genre or labels applied by others. Just listen to the music and decide. Yeah baby!
