seriously, does music suck now?

92
I can't believe I am letting this thread drag me back to this board

Ten new-ish acts I think are great, that I think are doing new things:
The Thing
FME
Signal To Trust
ft(shadow government)
Excepter
Country Teasers (ok not so new)
Chris Corsano-Paul Flaherty
The Seawhores
Tornavalanche
Konono No1

all these groups have released something in the past yr (or will soon be releasing somthing) that I think is incredible, that really excites me, that I can't stop listening to

this is not to mention nomeansno, peter brotzmann, the ex, shellac, the new year, etc, etc, etc that are still putting out great music, to my ears, anyway

seriously, does music suck now?

I haven't found much to like about to music created after 1995. But, I'm an old bastard. There have been some things here and there that I like. I guess I wasn't made for these times, and I'm not part of the target audience in any case. I find myself looking to 60's/'70's hippie music as the Godsmacks, Disturbeds, and Linkin Parks can't hold a candle to the music I loved in my youth. I feel like an Elvis fan in 1977.

I do love the Weakling album, for some compelling reason.

I was just introduced to this music (via the new album), and with that my belief in new good music was reborn.

rejoice.


I was just introduced to this music through this post.

rejoice, indeed.

"stunned" on I want to Live a Peaceful Life is a breathtaking song.
According to iTunes, I have now listened to it 32 times. wetf.

I've added a link to their site where you may find this song.
kerble is right.
