| 412032 | 2005-12-12 21:16:00 | Funny. I have not even heard of the "musicians" mentioned by previous posters.So how are you qualified to coment about things you haven't heard? There is some damn good stuff out there, and its not all "modern" genres either, Nathan Hanes is one artist i have had the privoledge of working with, and this guy puts on a light jazz show. Allthough it's not really what squeals my wheels, there was no denying that the show was suppurb, and not just because of my real cool well done stage lighting job either :p Its only because my job puts me in direct contact with artists that i would otherwise never have heard of that i get to see such things, without it i would have an ever shrinking comfort zone. On another extreem, there are some metal acts around to who are damn good at what they do. Sinate, who evolved out of 8 foot sativa, would be worth a listen for those who like hard driving music. Dancy/electronic stuff? Don't know much about that, but how about my dear friend Mel (http://emeraldgreen.orcon.net.nz) who makes all her music on a laptop, with a little help from friends, and has a voice that i can not help but be charmed by? Look.. i could go on, and on, and on, but the point it, chances are there is something now to match whatever you'r tastes are, and it's of quality. It's just a matter of getting off ones chuf and looking for it. Like most good things, they aren't found by sitting at home and writing off all possibilitys. |

However its unfair to say that todays musis is talentless . Yes, most rap isn't even written by the artists who "sing" them, and if anyone has heard Avril Lavigne live, then you'll know who incredibly bad her singing actually is . But there are so many bands that still exist with talent . Tool, Ben Harper, Foo fighters, Placebo, Che Fu, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Jack Johnson, Goldenhorse, System of a Down, even 8 Foot Sativa . Regardless of whether you like the bands above, they do have talent . Even metal is often regarded as talentless, but the ability to scream like they do and play instruments like they can all shows they have talent . |

Mind you, you are not far off the 40 personal posts :D :p |

| 412035 | 2005-12-12 22:57:00 | There is good and indifferent music in all ages. Time sorts out the gold from the dross. I could quite easily compile a 1970s greatest hits mix that would be guaranteed to drive those claiming today's music is rubbish up the wall in 30 minutes or less. People always forget the rubiish stuff because they never intentionally listen to it decades latter. But take a historical set of Top 40 charts and you can easily choose a bunch of songs that went gold in their day but which everyone one has thankfully forgotten .... |

| 412038 | 2005-12-13 00:01:00 | 90% of anything is tripe. Except tripe. Tripe is 100% tripe. That's what makes it tripe. Not that I've ever eaten any. After all, it couldn't be nice, or we wouldn't describe things that are rubbish as, well tripe, would we? |

| 412040 | 2005-12-13 00:28:00 | Bah, its not all that bad. It depends what ur into and how much of a die hard fan you are. Completely agree about the boy/girl bands, kareokestar idols and appalling new hiphop/rap/rnb coming out. Singing covers and remixing old stuff does nothing to show if they are any good or not. Music is age dependant. You will be hard pressed to find "better" bands than the ones you were listening thru your teenage/20's party years. For me Gunners, offspring, nirvana, bad religion, pennywise, alice in chains, the cult, stone temple pilots, iron maiden etc was and still is my music of choice. The music you listened to in these years primarily dictates your genre of choice, albeit the fact you as you mature you will develop an ever increasing variety of taste. As for newer music, Gunners new look (minus axel) Velvet Revolver was by far the best album released that year, but thats just me. Drugs also dictate a lot of music taste. NZ drum and bass scene/ reggae scene as pretty damned good. Bands like Salmonella Dub, Concord Dawn, The Black Seeds, Fat Freddies Drop and Katchafire etc have bought NZ a long way, but unless your into that type of party scene you will of course write this off as rubbish. Each to their own |
