I feel sad for my generation (Read pls)

[lowjk]

man, i really miss the 80s.

I agree. Even the cheesy Ah Beng Modern Talking actually sounds good if you put next to some of the garbage they call techno music these days.

 

[lars_ulrich]

yeah bon jovi definetly arent the best of the 80's. sure they got a few tolerable songs but the rest are pretty shitty. and i hate how they are called metal. thats bullshit. they arent metal. 80's was where real metal ruled with metallica, megadeth and slayer. thats the best of the 80s. then grunge and nirvana came along, killing most of metal cept the big 3.

Music evolves, every era has its names.

Can't really compare coz our music tastes are slowly shifting.

We bring with us fond memories of old bands when the era's change... till now, we still love Deep Purple, Led Zep, Dire St, ACDC, Thin Lizzy, Queen, Pink Floyd....etc

But the 90s to 2000s arn't that bad really! There is 2 things which I loved...which is Alternative and Emo Rock!!

The first being so new and fresh... I fell in love immediately with Smashing Pumpkins and Radiohead (among other things). Then there is EMO, if you don't like Simple Plan, try some other bands like Weezer, The Used, Get Up kids...etc Its surprising how simple and yet powerful their songs are.

And if you're that type of underground lover, I'm sure the 90s to 2000s+ is a great time for progressive music. Look how far it went from Pink Floyd prog. rock era to Queens to Dream Theater.... Killer Licks, fancy chords and odd rythmns!!

of course...then there's the retro bands ala "The Darkness" haha

omg. dude, it was meant as sarcasm. i can't deal with 80s music. i hate retro night at clubs, it sucks. i'd much rather listen to The Who (who happen to really rock.)

It's just ....generation gaps, I guest. It’s nothing new to me as I heard my daddy grumble about the Modern music since I was 8 years old.

 

[inaba]

hehe

just make sure u dont grumble to the music that ur son listens to in the future :lol:

Gone are the glorious of old school or 80's bands, but we can still support the ones who are still survived or try to survive. Like Aerosmith, Bonjovi( although they currantly play crappy ballads), Velvet revolver, metallica.........etc

Well, if u really wanna blame u can blame on Nirvana... they started it :twisted:

 

[lars_ulrich]

i dont think u can should blame nirvana. they actually saved the world from bon jovi. and dont 4get metallica were at their top in popularity around that era*although maybe not the best). besides, megadeth and slayer were also growing. nirvana are innovators. i think they have very distinct punk and metal imfluences in their music. however after a while they do get boring. they weren't metal enuf for me at least.

 

[Mr_X]

My dad told me led zep could not come here due to long hair. Policy goes that people with long hair will be served last, etc etc, in other words treated like 2nd class citizens, or maybe worse.

 

[hifi_killer]

woah thats interesting. how did ur dad know that? yea i notice most civil servants cut their hair short, or rather too short

 

[gordonzz]

i dont think u can should blame nirvana. they actually saved the world from bon jovi..

din noe nirvana was so big :wink:

 

[Mr_X]

Did not asked him, but judging that he likes Deep Purple, Grandfunk railroad, it wun be a surprise that he'll know some stuff abt led zep.

 

[thor666]

nirvana was good. the only problem being that nirvana was so promoted by MTV culture at that time. Up till today there are people who think Kurt Cobain is a great guitarist of the times. No offence, but I think we can have better great guitarists.

he's more of a good songwriter.

BINGO That is what I mean. The existence of Nirvana changed the whole rock scene. They proved that u dont need to be that skillfull in order to be a rocksar, u need to be inovative and creative. It changed the mindset of a lotta people who plays music towards the rock scene and thats where u have simple plan. the calling, hoobustank hanging around now adays.

And thats wher eit all changed men. Maybe u din realized it, its kinda like an evolution. Therefore i still think we should blame NIRVANA hehe :lol:
