What sort of music do you think we'll see in the near future (2010's or 2020's)?

Is it just going to keep getting less and less about actual music, with nothing but shallow lyrics and catchy beats dominating the majority's MP3 players? And all of the good bands with something original to say will keep getting ignored?

OR

Are people going to come to their senses and jump start a whole wave of rockin' talented groups to knock the pop-tarts off of their metaphorical pedestals? And so then the world will start appreciating hard work and heart in their music again?

OR

Will it end up in a whole other scenario? If so, please elaborate.

    There are a lot of underground hard rock bands that cross the 70's punk sound of The Sex Pistols and The Ramones with the classic rock sound of CCR and Thin Lizzy. I think those kinds bands are going to go mainstream after the collapse of Rap, Indy, and Emo.

    And anyone who thinks that we've reached the piek of anything is a moron who needs a history lesson. The Romans thought that they invented everything there ever was to be invented. At the turn of the twentieth century physicists thought that they had everything figured out, that with in the next decade everything involving the physical universe would be figured out. But then came along general relativity, quantum mechanics, chaos theory, string theory, and M theory, and we still aren't any closer to figuring out what really makes the world go round. Just last year scientists INVENTED pna, synthetic genetic material. Absolutely nothing is any where close to being finished, including the evolution of contemporary music.

    Anyways, look up these bands:

    Mojo Rib

    The Dictators

    The Hellacopters

    American Speedway

    Gluecifer

    Peter pan speedrock

    Odd Zero

    Annihilation time

    Nashville P*ssy

    Thats the next wave of rock

    Hate to say it, but with computers and that - I think music will probably be the same as now, except probably even lazier and less like actual music then ever. I have noticed a lot of classics are returning (but they've been famous for years anyway). I hope the second option comes true.

    Being 15, I hate rap or hip-hop or whatever you want to call it. It will continue to dominate until we have an epiphany. I believe rock (I love rock) will fall. I'm going to say all electrical beat with lyrics music for 30 years (its been 9) until the killer comes around. And I feel, I hope, that it will be the best thing ever.

    to be honest i think it will remain the same and i do think musicals will dominate the theatres in London and Broadway more. I think we will see a few old icons bowing out due to old age.

    but rap, and minstry of sound will rule discos more maybe some new talent will storm the charts due to reality shows like " X-FACTOR " AND " POP-IDOL " if you watch these programmes we may have some weird fashion coming into the shops.

    The Metal will keep expanding it's domination over Europe, in the US the Music scene will just continue to deteriorate unfortunately.

    Depends what kind of music you think is good and which one sucks.

    It depends because some consider the music of the 80s to suck. But i think it's awesome.

    There's a lot of great bands out there. I in fact think it's best that only their true fans like them. Fakes end up killing it all.

    I'm thinking it will be an increase of the "popular" music from today (pop, hip-hop, alternative) but I'm hoping there will be strong resurgences of good ol' heavy metal like early 70s or NWOBHM or something sounding like eighties thrash

    more desirable man made souless pop music, all about "love, sex and ruin-ups" because the corporate clogs of the music marketplace churn out more desirable splenetic plastic drones for the mandatory-or-backyard shopper.
