Making music has become way too easy, any bloody idiot can sit at his/her computer, use some fancy software and call it music. The worst part is that people actually like it. What ever happened to good bands like Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, The Jimi Hendrix Experience? That was good music because they cared and put energy into it. Todays bands (at least most of them) don’t even write their own bloody songs. It’s depressing really. Come on world, give us some good shit instead of Paris Hilton trying to sing. (Oh, by the way, anyone who thinks she can sing should die. Sorry.)

Well, you’ve got a point, but as long as there still are bands that care and make great music, you can generally avoid the Hilton-stuff :). And don’t forget that computers with fancy software have produced some good music too.
Still, one thing is kind of strange… 30-40 years ago the popular artists where the ones that really cared about their music and even the songs that demanded a little more of the listener could reach the top lists. Whereas today the popular stuff is usually simple, mass produced crap. At least that’s the impression I get… but maybe people said the same thing during the sixties and seventies :).

Hello!? <blink>Bitpop</blink>?!
And what happened to bands like “The Jimi Hendrix Experience”, well peoples realised that they plain suck and replaced it with even worse “music” :). Lets hope that that the next switch will be in a metal-direction, probably not but lets hope anyway =/. Otherwise bands like Basshunter and Lordi will rule the musicfuture xD.

…or not. That’s never going to happen. Even if metal is okay, that will never happen because it has a very small target group. My guess would be 10% or something. Good rock however is almost like today’s pop-rock, but way better.
