Time to go on a rant about the music industry.

You know it's bad. Even before the whole Miley Cyrus situation it was bad.

What on earth happened to the awesome music we once had?

We had Nirvana, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Coldplay and co. storming the charts.

Nowadays, we have people like Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus who take the 'music' out of 'music video' and take it as an opportunity to wear skimpy clothes and fly about like they own the place.

Maybe you think I'm a little bit too angry at this. Maybe I am!

Maybe you still like this generations music. Sure, you get the odd good song with a mediocre video mowadays, but about 95% of music these days are either techno or about dancing.

I'm getting pretty sick of it.

Sure, I named a few examples up above; Nirvana, Coldplay etc. Maybe you don't like these bands. I'm not arguing with you.

But I'm about 90% sure you have a favourite music genre who's music is barely made these days.

Take rock music, for example. Rockers still live on today, but do you EVER see a rock song in the top 20s these days?

Two possible conclusions can be made from this rant:
#1: Music fans have given up on Jazz, Rock, Punk etc. and have moved on to 'fit in with the crowd'.

#2: Stupid music about drinking alcohol and dancing until your brains dry up are slowly brainwashing young people, and even some old.

Number 2 is an interesting one, because my whole year is made up of 13-14 year olds and I have not heard a SINGLE person talk about any song or artist published before 2010.

They're too busy dancing to stupid rave music to even care.

So, maybe you're thinking 'People can like what music they want'. And that's perfectly acceptable: What worries me is the language in most of these songs.

I'm not going to give examples incase I get a whack of the ban-hammer, but you know what I mean.

So, what's your opinion on this generations music? Are you a fan? Or do you want the good old music back?

All opinions are welcome
