Yep. I mean I don't really listen to the radio other than XM in the car for sports but I've just noticed it online and on TV ads. I remember there being lots of rock that was mainstream back when I was young(er). Sure I still hear of the odd band like fucking Nickelback or whomever get a bit of TV promotion (granted, I'm in Canada though) it's essentially all just Drake, Katy Perry and their peers. Yes I know that there has always been a huge spot given to pop music, there at least seemed to be a good portion slotted for rock. Two of my longtime favourite bands have albums coming out soon (Queens of the Stone Age in a few weeks and Foo Fighters in September, I think) and I've heard ZERO promotion anywhere (as in used in commercials or an ad for a CD) or seen anyone mention them. I only found out they were coming out due to Googling "List of 2017 Albums" and looking at a huge compilation on Wikipedia; I do this every week or so to see if anything I'm interested in is coming out. Every year I find it being less and less. Part of it is age I guess even though I'm hardly an old man, but the cultural shift for music is certainly wildly dominated by cookie cutter pop princesses and shitty rappers more than I can recall back in the day.
While never being a country fan, I certainly have noticed the shift though in its new form from flipping through the dial. If I have paused for a minute it always just sounds like pop with a twang for "street cred". I remember hearing my mom listen to what was current back like 15 years ago and while it wasn't for me, I could tolerate 90% of it and even enjoy the odd song. Now from hearing it I can imagine that they're all just slutty looking 21 year old chicks who don't go full Miley but shake their ass while wearing a cross so that the older folks can at least appreciate that they're "conservative" or something.

Pink Floyd is leftist, although I agree that their skill and style created something uniquely white.

jews pushing degeneracy is absolutely not something new, and your dates are way off. rap started late 70s 80s to promote gangs and drugs (crack epidemic, crips vs bloods) and all around detriment for those niggers. how young are you? 15?
Gabriel Edwards
They are heavily leftist I learned recently from hearing the lead singer be interviewed on a podcast. I actually listened to Dark Side of The Moon finally a few weeks ago. I understand I have to think of it through the context of when it was released but I just don't get why ever neckbeard has a t-shirt with its logo. It's solid enough but not too special to me.

ahahahahahahahahahahahaha
you mean methalone and 2ci, if you're lucky. As for the festivals, it's important to remember that most of the memories and interaction there is done in the camping areas, though from the outside, it might look like the opposite since the spectacle is what people take pictures of. Ultimately they're just big party-gatherings, it's as wholesome or degenerate as whomever you go with or camp near. Most people just want to relax, so most of the time are friendly. Large gatherings always attract your average wolves of course.

You are right. Just 60 years late.

If you look at the current rock charts its either compilation albums, reissues, or like the softest, softy soft rock on the planet that has no guitars or the guitars are muffled in the background.
The last decade there has been a real vendetta against rock music by the powers that be for some reason
Brody James
the whole music industry since inception along with movies television radio theater etc and even before that …. books. hundreds of years this has been going on man jesus this has to be bait
Sebastian Jackson
The thing about prog rock is they wanted to fuse high art and low art. It actually all started with brian wilson who was the first guy to be his own producer, he wanted to make pop music that had more depth and wasnt just about cars and surfing. You will notice a lot of classical musical instruments or odd music instruments that arent usually heard in pop music. He invented a genre they call baroque pop
Nathan Ramirez
They knew they influenced the people that watched/heard them. Especially Nirvana and Alice in Chains. They knew just how bad of an influence they were. But apathy took them. Then the drugs kept them doing the music industry's bidding.
Radiohead did a whole documentary following their tour in 97 which covered the industry's poisonous nature. They warned the industry was a trap to control what you produce.
