Old Jul 14th, 2008, 06:06 PM        Music sucks nowadays and it's the fault of the internet
With the internet, sites and programs like Myspace, Youtube, and the bastards who use Limewire" it has become too easy to find music and there is too much of it. So, naturally there is a ton of unoriginal shit. People can only be creative when they are limited. The greatest musicians ever only had guitars they found out of trashcans, etc. We need to be limited. Technology in the long run is bad for us.

R.I.P music.

Now before you say "Well, your using the internet right now!" I'm on a forum. It's different, fuck you.

Not everyone is talented enough to make great music. Sure there are alot of good musicians out there, but songwriting is the ultimate tragedy. There are fewer and fewer good song writers out there, and fault does not lie with the internet. It lies with uncreative douchebags trying to recreate things that have already been done.

No one sells their soul to the devil to become a great blues musician anymore.

There has always been shitty songwriters, but they weren't able to get as much exposure as they do now.

Tadao, it's not that simple. One person can't make a difference.

Good music will always be good music and people will buy the albums and go to the shows. That's all there is to it.

There's great bands on the Internet if you know where to look, you whiny neo-Luddite. Besides, I never would've learned about a lot of awesome bands that have been around a long time without the Internet. I never would've even heard of bands like Girlschool, The Plasmatics, and Rock Goddess if it hadn't been for my searching.

If you think all music is pathetic then why are you looking for music? Music isn't for you, I guess! Try a book!

Maybe you should try to understand what I am saying. The shitty music out weighs the good more then ever.That should change, and could very easily.

Instead of whining on a message board maybe you should try to put your energy toward something productive. Like creating awesome music! Or losing weight.

And seriously if it weren't for the internet I'd still only like about four bands, but now it's like 50. And still growing.

i can't agree that the internet is a major cause for music sucking, but i do wish sometimes that music was harder than it actually is

that sounds totally fucked, but let me try to clarify: the standards for music and the creative process of today are so goddamn low. there are so many local bands that all sound exactly the same because they put barely any thought into what they are doing; just trying to get kids to "mosh" or "be brutal" or what the fuck ever. i'm in a couple local bands and i'll tell you that nine times out of ten i'll go play a show and then leave because every band we play with is repackaged and unoriginal. unless of course the band is striving to do so, which they aren't, because all of their band statements will be something like "we just try to be original and something different." when in reality they are just the same as every other band

i would go off on a similar rant about art school but this isn't the appropriate thread

fuck music
