[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Texas Ben You're dangerously close to someone being able to invoke goodwin's law on your punk ass. [/quote] You dug this up just to say that? "Brainwashing" really meant: The older generation played their music and showed the new generation. The older used the term "Legends" so the younger believed it. That is what happened to me; my Mother (who you [i]intimately[/i] know) had Guns 'N Roses, Nirvana, The Doors - all that stuff (even some Zep). I thought that was the pinicle of music until I went to the 2000 X-Games in Philadelphia and got my first tast of Disturbed: The Sickness on a demo CD. She took it away ("too violent") but my Father gave me his copy of the CD "under the table." The summery: The Old told the New what to like; brainwashing. You honestly believe I'd degrade a musical thread? I thought you learned I wasn't that kind of person over the last 6 months....

Fair enough, you like what you like, but what you're saying is just damn disrespecctful. It's like me saying "I like you, but I don't like your parents. I wish they'd never lived". Hey wait - you wouldn't be around then! I'd rather marinate my balls in gravy and run through a ravenous pack of wolves than listen to a whole Linkin Park album. Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Disturbed etc, these bands are putting metal to shame. Innovative bands such as Lamb of God, The Red Chord, Byzantine, this is what metal is about today. These guys outshine any of this nu-metal -blam!- to the power of 24380762345987652234765. I'm fine with people liking whatever genre they like, be it rap, country, clasical, etc. But nu-metal....no. Adding rap to metal is like taking the most beautiful women you've ever seen to a plastic surgeon and telling him to slap a d!ck on her. [Edited on 6/2/2005]

I'm perfectly fine with you liking Nu Rock and not really having a huge preference for Classic Rock. It's just that you said: [quote] they're "famouse" because they "did it first".[/quote] That's so utterly ignorant and disrepectful to the music that sowed the seeds for your beloved "Nu" Rock that it's really kinda sad. I mean, heck, I'm not a huge fan of the Mario games, but I do respect and recognize them for essentially bringing the video game industry back to its feet and making it popular again. It's kind of the same principle with music: you don't nesecarrily have to [i]like[/i] an older form of music, but you should at least respect it, because part of it became what you listen to today.

If the target generation is 35-45 years old, then why are the majority of the sales coming from people who are younger than that? Hmmm...d'you think it's because younger kids are interested in classic rock, too? There's also a major difference between bands of today and bands of yesteryear. Back then, bands were given time to [i]develop[/i]. They could send out a few albums and then eventually come into their own sound. They could experiment, try out new things, and just generally tune up their sound. Heck, the Chili Peppers released two or three other albums before they finally had their smash hit [i]Blood Sex Sugar Magik[/i], and that was only back in the late 80's/early 90's. Nowadays, the radios stations only want a specific sound. If the band has something different to offer, they tend to be blocked out. Most of the bands that get big are still kinda bland; their sound never really changes and grows with them, and they hardly ever try to experiment. Bands with talent usually stay underground and hardly, if ever, take off and go mainstream. People today like the processed, heartless, bland grouping of notes that the consider "music" because it doesn't really make them think. It's just a bunch of chords, sometimes with a few notes thrown in, mixed together and dressed up in the studio to make a catchy song, usually the only good one on the album because it's the only one that really gets a lot of studio attention. And then, because the songs are so dressed up in the studio, the band sounds like crap live. One of the reasons Led Zeppelin is my favorite band is because, even though they did try out things in the studio, they still sounded awesome live. They had talent. Probably the most respectable thing about them that I can think of is not only were they independent, but they never released one single; they felt that it was more important to make an good [i]album[/i] rather than just a good song with filler around it to justify a purchase. Unfortunately, we don't really have bands like that today; the record labels won't have it.

You seem to like Linkin Park, who is rap-rock. Now, here's something I bet you didn't really know. Rap-rock pretty much came about when RUN-DMC and Aerosmith did their own new version of "Walk This Way." Aerosmith is, in all technicality, a classic rock band. They've been around since the early 70's. Oh, and one more thing, I just need to point it out. You said [quote]and they're "famouse" because they "did it first".[/quote] Ummm...yeah, they are famous because they [i]did it first[/i]. Without classic rock bands, hard rock and metal would've never come about. Without older hard rock and metal, nu metal would've never come about. Saying what you just said is like saying that Halo, Half-Life, Goldeneye 007, and Perfect Dark never needed a few titles like Wolfenstien and Doom to get them started. Know and respect your roots, -blam!-.

No one will remember Linkin Park in 20 years - we'll all still be listening to Zep & The Eagles. Linkin Park is catchy, but they really aren't bringing anything new to the table. The rap/rock thing has been around for a while now. I could see people still listening to NIN in 20 years though.
