"....singles singles singles. that's all fucking radio cares about. radio destroys collective memoory, replacing it with three minute grabs and a lot of talk." "....mass public acceptance doesn't equal worth. if it did then the current american musical institutions are britney spears and the ploliferating boy bands. oh god no."
Say fuckin' a few more times, add a y'all or two, and write half that post in parenthasis and you'll have the same rant I've been obsessing on these boards for the past four years.
I usualy try to end my anti-top-40 posts by recommending some current rock bands that are sadly overlooked, but none come to mind right now. Could someone pick up the slack and remind us that real music ain't dead, just hidden up on a high shelf where those impressionable children can't reach it.
