hearing goons age out of the coveted 18-36 demographic where EVERYTHING ON EARTH is targeted at them is pretty funny ngl

The best period of music was when what I like was popular, the worst period was when the generation after me started making music influenced by the music I liked.

There was a shitload of good rock and rock derived music, it just wasn't what was super popular. You're talking about the golden age of thrash metal, etc

Exactly, it wasn't super popular then, pretty much everyone only heard about it after. The mainstream stuff was dire. All the stuff that thrash was made as a response to.

I've been seeing a lot of young folks wearing Nirvana t-shirts lately and I'm genuinely curious if kids these days are discovering them or if it's just a "this looks cool" thing.

Most older band logos have been licensed out to loads of different companies - H&M, Primark, Boohoo, etc. I'd assume it's just a design for some people

My 2.5 year old has a Nirvana tee shirt that they picked out themselves, for instance

H&M has been selling them here so there has been some sort of licensing deal made somewhere to pump them out for fast fashion places.

Kmart has been selling GnR shirts but this is Australia so you only really notice because a different sort of kid is wearing their shirt, the overall number of them doesn't appear to have changed much.

I spent the first 30 years of my life assuming that when I grew up I would eventually come to understand why the term "rock" can refer to anything from heavy metal to thrash to like, the Beatles or Frankie Valli

Then I gave up

Generally: instrumentation is drums, bass, guitar, vocals, and the rhythm accentuates the backbeat and is not syncopated.

Listen:

  • The death of rock and roll was the instant guitar players started loosening the strap so that they held it lower than nipple height.

  • True R&B requires at least one trumpet player.

  • Every rap song released after Pigmeat Markham's Here Comes the Judge is manufactured corporate pablum.

It's funny to me that fun "retro" music was from the 80s when I was growing up in the 90s, and often less than ten years old.

But I guess 1991 was a really hard line.

Every decade since the advent of recorded music has been loaded with multitudes of diverse, interesting artists, very few of whom received generous radio airplay.

The decade during which I experienced pubescence, however, is objectively the best decade for music.

I read somewhere that the best background music for a party consists of songs popular when your guests were in college (or would have been, age-wise).

I read sheet music to enjoy my music because it is the only way that you can ensure that you're experiencing the music the way the artist intended.
