Is Rock Dead?? (A Commentary on Music Genres)
Stupid risks are what make life worth living.-Homer Simpson
-PC Load Letter?! What the Fuck does that mean!?!?!- Micheal Bolton
-Bullshit! I'll bet you can suck a golf ball through a garden hose! - Sgt. Hartman
-I'll bet your the kind of guy who would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the Goddamn common courtesy to give him a reacharound!- Sgt. Hartman
There are too many bands that led to the demise of rock to name just one...but Creed is a convenient target, so I'll blame them.

I'm studying for the CPA exam. Have a nice summer, and if you're down just sit back and realize that Joe is off somewhere, doing much worse than you are.

Ska. Ska is dead and it makes me sad.
Its unfortunate that a genre which inspired so many others has to fade so far into obscurity, but I guess thats the way all music goes (except classical). Still, I am hard pressed to find similar genres that have the energetic peppiness that Third-Wave ska does.

If it makes you feel any better, I always thought the big hair bands of the late eighties almost killed off rock. It took Grunge to kick shit off again, but with most things, you find a fix and they'll just grind it into the earth too.Joe wrote:There are too many bands that led to the demise of rock to name just one...but Creed is a convenient target, so I'll blame them.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
