There's this band named Yes. It is a prog rock band from the '60s, but my favorite song from that band happens to be on an album named Drama, released in 1980. It is named Machine Messiah and is about 10 minutes in length.

It is the best band ever. Pink Floyd's cool too.

Count me in on this.

Hey, you. Yeah, you.

Yes is my favorite band. And Pink Floyd's on my top 3. Therefore, you rule. :3
 
woah what
this is like, the most vague club I have ever seen
It's pretty much "we don't like this decade's music" or something. Also is this like... every genre ever or what

edit: aw fuck I was beaten to it
note to seld - read all posts on first page
 
Umm...I joined because most of my favorite bands/songs are from this era. I don't have any malice for songs outside of it. o_O
 
I don't have any malice against any of the songs from this era. It's just, at least the ones I've heard, have not been as good as older songs.
 
Joinage. I adore music from that time era, especially the 80s stuff. My favorite band is probably the Stray Cats, and my favorite song Stray Cat Strut. <3 (No, really, Flamey liking a band and song that have the word "cat" in them?)

I don't have anything against today's music, and I've heard several good songs amongst it, but 80s rock will always make me go into fangirl mode. xD
 
I'm in. The '80s were the best.

Testament, GnR, Slayer, Megadeth and many ore I can't be bothered to name.

you only pay attention to shitty pop music, figures

your opinion is uninformed and stupid
just because it's your opinion doesn't mean it's valid

dubstep. mittelalter. idm. ebm. dark cabaret. darkwave.

Are any of these terms familiar to you? they are all very prolific scenes that are becoming increasingly more common and innovative. but you wouldn't know, because your vocabulary consists of 'rock', 'pop', 'hip-hop', 'jazz' and all that other stuff. you are in no position to be judging an entire era based on the few mainstream, mass-produced scenes that you have bothered venturing into.

"I'm Furret. I'm so underground, I haven't even heard of myself."
 
I said that I can't judge for the entire musical selection of this era, but I said that much of the music that I've heard was not as good as the old music. If you don't intend on offering any discussion with a point then please get out. This is not the debating hall.
 
What? My post has a point, buddy. You are grouping music into arbitrary categories that bear no relevance to anything whatosever and are making ludicrous claims like:
Really good music I think started in the 50s, and then went on to the 90s, and then started to decline.

You haven't actually responded to anything I've said, instead trying to weasel your way through loopholes that don't exist. And you have the nerve to say my argument has no point. Hmm...
 
You claim that today's music is a decline from generations past and then don't care to back it up?

I will continue to argue against this claim until you give me a reason not to - because I am a fan of music from both eras of the past and the modern spectrum. I respect the dignity of modern DIY artists and will defend them until I die. I really don't mean to sound all mighty and noble here but there are few things in the world I care more strongly about.
