I'll just leave this here.It's [profmembrane]REAL SCIENCE![/profmembrane]
Really, though, I'm not an elitist or anything, but I hear more and more music that doesn't even have any tune in it these days.
There are still great niche bands(though I don't follow music, I heard about a few), but I haven't seen any great, popular ones. The ones that do get popular seem to be doing it for the fame or eventually devolve into generic mediocrity like the rest. I can't think of a popular band mentioned by someone else at my school that I listened to and liked. In fact, the last "hit song" I liked was probably Gangnam Style, and even that one I only really enjoyed once I stopped seeing it spammed everywhere annoyingly(I'm not really a hipster about it, there's just a point where seeing the song plasted onto everything everywhere makes it feel dumb. I still remember the "[thing] Style" craze).
