| Why does most new music suck? You beat me to the punch. | |
| Why does most new music suck? Rok, I think here in lies your dilemma. Too much is being expected from some of us. I wouldn't change a thing:) | |
| Why does most new music suck? Maybe, but it's always been the simplest melodies that are the most pleasing. History or not. That's the problem with originality. The more complicated it gets, the less pleasing until finally it's just garbage.Frogman, I believe my last post is s... | |
| Why does most new music suck? I happen to love Rok's style. As far as the op's concerned, I think we can take license to extend his query to all genres since it applies to all. It's already been made clear but just to state it, 'new' music is not a genre. Youtube examples are ... | |
| Why does most new music suck? Well done Rok. But Marty, Do you think you may be over complicating things a bit? Definitions of art become irrelevant to those offended by it. Why would I grade something I consider degenerative? To consider as you suggest, that early blues in an... | |
| Why does most new music suck? My initial challenge was 'Audiophile wide", globally. Let's not cloud the issue here. If these guys are writing these tunes to satisfy themselves, fine. They're second to none. However, if they're competing with the past trying to pass it off to t... | |

| Why does most new music suck? Exactly. Talented musicians are not necessarily artists. Imagine teaching yourself not only to play an instrument but to come up with some of the best music of all time. There's lots of information available to corroborate the statements I've made... | |
| Why does most new music suck? Absolutely, yes. It is our intelligence that brings the best to the forefront of the myriad possibilities which can be calculated mathematically. Sure there are zillions of possible melodies, the vast majority being pure garbage as relates to our ... | |
| Why does most new music suck? Oh but it is! This is where we differ. Do you think that the great melodies of the past would not exist had those who wrote them not done so? They simply beat everyone else to the punch. There are no punches left to punch. | |
| Why does most new music suck? I think a clear distinction should be made between lyrics and melody. My son came home one day after school indignant that the new assignment was to write a poem. He thought 'How absurd to demand something from someone who may not be particularly ... | |
| The new Bob Dylan Too late, it's been done. If it wasn't them , it would have been someone else. Same stuff. | |
| Why does most new music suck? Rok, it doesn't change the truth. Give me an alternative. |
