First we were hippies, dead set on completely upending the parts of society that suck rear end and have caused nothing but suffering and human misery for centuries. Then we discovered money. Reagan was a living god.

Which lets be clear, is now grandad rock. Nirvana is dad rock, poo poo The White Stripes are nearly dad rock.

The White Stripes, The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, The National, loving MCR is now dad rock. No almosts about it.

Okay I know this whole thing is stupid and not worth responding to, but why does he think rock and roll is dead? There are more rock bands than ever before, I'm so loving confused.

Probably means a top 40 and guest musicians on talk shows/sporting events, stuff you hear/see without trying. He’d still be wrong in a technical standpoint because there are plenty of “rock” bands in pop, hell, imagine dragons and maroon 5 both call themselves one, but for the most part you’re not going to get the sound he’s probably imagining unless you go digging yourself and he’s far too lazy for that.

I’d actually argue hip hop is to millennials as rock was to boomers. But genres really started stratifying in the 80s, so I don’t think there’s a real 1:1 comparison.

I think hip hop is an on-point comparison because there's very much a type of millennial that has a similar vibe to the OP saying there's no good rock music anymore.

Gonna be awesome when millenials crack ping in rapid succession and decide to do a terrorism against rich boomers on a regular basis.

Gen X gonna sit here quietly and watch and then overdose when retirement sucks.

Now that boomers are moving to retirement spots I'm having to deal more with gen x and they are quickly becoming my most hated generation. They have all the hallmarks of boomers without the sense of community boomers want. Just selfish rich assholes with a massive sense of entitlement. gently caress my neighbours. They may have benefited the most from the financial situation because most bought houses at the cusp when prices were rock bottom but wages sky-rocketed and interest rates dropped. And they were still young enough to fully enjoy it.
