I really have to agree with what you guys hvae said. Being raised in music, it deeply saddens me to see the way the industry has destroyed this form of art in some ways. It seems that since the end of the last "pop-star" trend, they can't find a new style to feed the masses. So they regress to hip-hop. *GAG ME!!* Anyway, I really can't say that I know all of what's out there now since I haven't listened to a radio station is over 7 years. On the other hand, I see enough to know that I still don't like what's in the mainstream. Most music that I find now is from the message boards that I read (here and www.mikeportnoy.com). That's where I discovered Opeth, Porcupine Tree, and all of the incredible classical and jazz suggestions you guys have given. *THANKS A LOT* I still have a bunch of classical stuff I need to order.  Anyway, thought I'd donate my $.02

The audacity,..........inferring that I'm having a mid-life crisis.
I categorically deny that alligation!

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha, of course.

I have been lurking over here for awhile and finally found a post that I had to respond to. I have to disagree with everyone so far. There are and have been many great rock/metal bands over the last decade and a half. Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Alice in Chains just to name a few.

I suspect one's age has something to do with how one feels about this issue.

Sure, but those 3 bands are all gone, as of at the least 5 years ago. What's good NOW? Limp Bizkit? I don't think so... Freakin' assholes...

bigjohn is absolutely right. Queens of the Stoneage, System Of A Down, Ministry, Slayer, Lamb of God are great. I love Pink Floyd, Zeppelin and the Beatles, but rock is definitely not dead.
