What happened to GOOD rock? What's up with all this 'emo' music? And?
There are so few bands these days that actually play good, pure rock. I can only name two off the top of my head (Jet and The Darkness). Everything else seems like its either 'emo' or 'indie', what happened to rock? Also, what's up with emo, i don't understand why people want to listen to music that is that depressing?

If you're relying on corporate music to give you the rock you want, you get what you deserve. You have to look into less mainstream artists.

turn off MTV, swap remote from the pop radio station. The rock bands usual on the rock radio station are not of the "emo scene" type. yet another concern is the quantity of scenes of rock obtainable. besides to the emo scene, there is likewise the transforming into indie scene crammed with a lot of rock bands there, maximum getting beneficial comments in contrast to Panic. yet another scene is the problematic rock/steel scene that could get some radio airplay. And seem around you, no longer all people right here like FOB, MCR, AAR, or P!ATD. i'm precise now into 9 Inch Nails, gadget, FOo combatants and Disturbed's recent releases at this 2d. in case you seem remote from emo, you will nevertheless see rock is alive. ANd sure, hip-hop is rather being engulfed via commercialization to the factor that no longer something concerns.

I ask the same questions. I guess kids just have it sooo hard these days (insert sarcasm) I agree, wish newer, good music would come out. Avenged Sevenfold and Killswitch Engage is good..but I miss ground breaking bands like Godsmack, Disturbed and Metallica. I guess the times just change, unfortunately.

Teenagers these days are a bunch of whiny little babies. So they listen to whiny music, they think it's cool to be depressed and complain. Well it's not! Stop being a bunch of crybaby little ******* and grow some damn balls. (that was a good question)

effin drunk is right, mainstream music sucks. look deeper, and if that doesnt work listen to the older stuff.
