Things we cannot be bothered by anymore

From Liner notes on "Masked Marauder" album: The steady "thump, thump, thump" of the drum"!

You can find some very creative and viable rap but it takes some time and I cant be bothered.

Every generation looks back and says the same things about past music. Elvis, the hippie stuff, punk, rap, metal, etc. Worst thing to come along, other than MTV, is the ease at which you can manipulate using digital recording.

Give me the Sex Pistols over Boston (or any arena rock band from this era) any day of the week. Oh and how about all that pukey/puffy prog. stuff from the 70s?

So many of you have become your parents!

@devinplombier Posters who assume that everybody who doesn't live in the USA must be from Canada.

No. 3... Girl singers you can't hear for the thumping band.   Maybe they can't sing, just say'in.

No. 2... Heavy equipment of any sort

No. 1... People who hate equipment, cables and speakers who have never heard them. 

If you haven't heard it or can't afford it; too bad, you don't have an opinion. 

Hard wired RCA cables from tonearms that will not reach inputs  

Dismissing the golden era of CD's, where some of these box sets and jackets are intricate works of art, and WILL be in museum exhibits at MOMA one day (if they have not already) - e.g. Bowie cards in Station to Station box set, TH box where each jacket includes an original work of art, Goodbye Babylon engraved (by hand) and singed block type on a large wooden slide box, Seven Steps to Heaven tissue tracing illustrations, and on and on and on.

LP's the same for decades as we know, and have been in countless global high profile art exhibitions around the world. Robert Frank's many images on Exile on Main Street at the Frank exhibit at MOMA last year case in point. 

If some sound like crap, well, we are hearing the same master on (pick your platform). YMMV.
