Does Rock Music in General Suck Now?

Logical · 10-02-2007, 04:57 PM

I think that petergz question about Rock Radio in KC being poor is more an issue of Rock music in general being sh1tty these days.

Your opinion, agree or disagree?

I don't live in the KC area but near Charlotte, NC. There's a modern rock channel that I listen to on the way home from work. It's a good drive time show. Anyways, I heard this song "Paralyzer" by Finger Eleven. It's the gayest "rock" song I've ever heard.

I turned 30 this year. I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not, but I think Rock music has died.

Agree.

Maybe i'm showing my age, yet i could give a rats ass.

My feelings on this issue could best be explained with a monologue from Bob Seger.."todays music aint got the same soul, i like that old time rock n roll".

What happened, Mary Catherine Gallagher? Couldn't find an appropriate monologue from a made-for-TV movie from the '70's? Oh well..here's your cue to leap into a stack of chairs...

I turned 30 last year and I fully agree. Aside from the occasional TOOL or NIN ( and even they ain't what they used to be) I can't think of any compelling rock.

Yep. T00L particularly. 10,000 days was a great album, but paled in comparison to Undertow, Aenima, and even Opiate. Drop D was the beginning of the end. That's all I can think of.

What station? I moved back to Seattle from Concord NC back in April. I generally listened to 106.5 The End when I listened to the radio at all back there.

Yep, the show I was referring to is The Budweiser lounge with Kristen and Jack Daniel. I like their show but can't take most of the music they play.

Hmm. Did Jack at night get moved to the afternoon show? Maybe that's a different Jack. Seems Kristen and Jack Daniel were doing the drive time show when I was there as well. Their music isn't good, but it's better than any other rock station in town. IMO anyways.

If you're ever back in the area, try 93.3, The Planet out of Greenville, SC. They ROCK! When I want to listen to anything from Ozzy to the Foo Fighters, that's the channel. I used to work around Lake Norman and still picked it up clear.
