If you have to "dig" for Rock bands, then Rock is Dead.
Back in the day, people couldn't get enough of rock music. A&R and record labels scoured the earth and uncovered, promoted and help great rock bands and musicians achieve worldwide fame.
Today, pfft.
I'm not happy about it and I think it sucks, but it is what it is. The Millennials are into EDM, which is music in which any six year old with a laptop or iPad can create. Country has the strongest base followed by Hip Hop/Rap but Pop music/American Idol/Disney outsells them all.
Rock is about legacy acts.
