Anyone?

Listen to this instead: http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=Z3Y8dS5F0TE

I couldn't make it through the whole song. Sorry, but that's not what I consider to even be music.

Fine, I'll find something more for your taste then: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmdPQp6Jcdk

Ahhhhhh...their one good song...

Or, more modern: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_aFmziaRdU

I love this one. Its arguably religious. But very good.

Or how about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR0v0i63PQ4&feature=channel_video_title&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=watch&utm_campaign=rihanna_cheers_longtail_intl

Nooooooooo...well, we've kind of gone down hill. But I'd be glad to hear other people's opinions as to why what's popular today is "good." Because honestly, I don't know why people listen to any of that...

Rhianna suck. Brand New is good though...

There is nothing wrong with Arcade Fire my friend, and if you disagree then you must grow up!!!

I knew Rihanna sucks, I imagine her doing that...

Arcade Fire seemed like a decent band, I'm just not in agreement with their style.

Try this one then: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyp34v6Lmcc

That was good, but it lacked a strong emphasis. If a song does not stand unique, then it cannot prove itself to be truly great. It did have a creative nature to it which is essential in creating the perfect song. (Just my thoughts...)

I'd like to direct you to a thread on the xkcd fora:

Check out the newer artists mentioned inside. Maybe you'll like some of them. I did.

@King Atom: Don't you realize people have been saying this for years and years now? With every change in music people who prefer the old hate, and say it isn't music, and only what they listened to way back in the day is music...Do you realize how many people talked shit about rock and roll when it first started becoming popular? And besides, are we forgetting about disco? Sure, every generation has it's really shitty, uber mainstream commercial junk, just because the music has changed and you don't like it doesn't make it not good music...sorry for the rant I just get sick of old geezers complaining about new music it's the same old complaints every time

I don't mind it, each to it's own tastes. Back to posting music people? I want to discover some new artists: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrCsDG6aIRk

iMurk, KA isn't old, IIRC he is 14. However, I agree with you, the only reason the olden days seem like they only had good music is because we only remember the good stuff.

That said, listen to Yoko Kanno's stuff.

A lot of other J-Pop as well.

Thank you largeham. Music, in it's entirety, does not increase or decrease in quality, only change. I love classic rock, but I hate when people make sweeping generalizations and write off whole generations of music.

I do not believe that music changes. There are different kinds of music and there is what will always and always could exist, but what goes around today is not music. Why don't we call it "Stimulating Noise."

^ That came out wrong...

Then what is your definition of music? What is music? Also, I do believe that obiwan and someone else had a large argument over music (I think specifically in relation to Lady Gaga, but it spread tobe about the nature of music in general), but I can't be bothered finding the thread.

You might call it for whatever it is, you may stay neutral, or you may enjoy it for whatever it is :)

What goes around today? So you have exposed yourself to every band who has produced material in the past 2 decades? Define music and I will provide you with an example of some modern music that fits your criteria.
