93-97

[derek.]

yeah, i pulled out my old razerblade suitcase cd. what a great cd. given the current state of "main stream" music, its hard to believe they used to play good new music on the radio. 93-95 was a great, r.e.m put out "monster", live "throwing copper", everclear "sparkle and fade" radiohead "the bends", soundgarden, man, i could go forever with good records. why does new music suck so bad.

[mrs jesus]

because most of the good bands broke up or had members die

[Dan #2]

there are some good bands out now, but they're hard to find. i think i'm just getting old, to be honest. i hate the music these kids today are listening to.

[mrs jesus]

hahahaha.. i just looked at your profile..

 

getting old, my ass

[heyrabbit]

Seriously. I heard "today" by the pumpkins on the radio and I was just thinking about the 90's. All the cool grunge and alternative bands... sixteen stone, frog stomp, melancholy and the infinite sadness.

 

who wants to start a band with me? we can wear baggy plaid shirts and cut holes in the knees of our jeans.

[Lauren]

[firestorm701]

yeah, the nineties were awesome for rock

you cant just CUT holes in your jeans, you have to wear them enough until the holes just HAPPEN..

[firestorm701]

(said in a whiny voice)

[no yu begin wher i end]

why does new music suck so bad.

If you look hard enough, you'll find plenty of excellent new music.

[derek.]

oh yeah, i know theres plenty of good new music to be found, i just mean the garbage the radio spews on you.

[no yu begin wher i end]

Haha true enough.

[firestorm701]

mellon collie and the infinite sadness...it was a pun

 

guess you're too "out of it"

[Matt]

Grunge is overrated. Some of it was okay... It was just the same thing they're "spewing" out now anyways. Most of the bands talk about "how hard" they have it. Listen to what you like and whatnot, but don't trash modern bands, when there are definitely some good ones out there. I listen to more smaller bands these days than I used to, but I don't see why if people enjoy the new music, that it needs to be trashed...

not really

 

not to mention that the bands that most of these new bands are trying to rip off did it 100 times better in the first place

[Scot]

yes. if i could go back to the beginning of 1996 i would.

 

edit: thirty years from now ok computer will still be one of the greatest rock albums ever made.

Edited January 11, 2005 by Scot

[here is no why]

The 90's was a great era for music, i find myself going back and listening to a lot of those albums you've talked about, all the time. The Smashing Pumpkins are my all time favourite band, so, i tend to listen to that era a lot more.

[saturnine]

i feel sorry for the kids that are growing up today with good charlotte, jet, franz ferdinand et al. shit, son.. i remember when all these 'classic' ninties albums came out.. best years of my life.

[Scot]

i remember listening to fm96 (the local rock station) in shop class grade nine and singing along to every song.

 

now all they play is creed, nickleback, and the like.

[mrs jesus]

what? you mean creed doesnt rock?

 

wow, ive been misinformed

[Matt]

I like how everyone says their sorry for the modern band likers, yet the same things were said before the 90s too.

[saturnine]

it'll always be said.. and it's always true

[Dan #2]

hahahaha.. i just looked at your profile..

 

getting old, my ass

i know.. i meant inside... i hate kids today, lol. For me, popular music sucks right now, tv sucks right now, movies suck right now, video games suck right now...

 

i just figured i'm out of touch with new things. they don't hold my interest.
