there are too many great bands that have just faded away....

this is for them

(pouring out my 40 oz)




seriously though, what the hell is happening with music today? it sounds to me like the alternative scene is shifting back towards a 70's type of sound...i dont like it


i loved that early/mid-90's grunge sound that bands like nirvana and pearl jam pioneered but now those days are gone : (


i'm such a bad ***

 

What the hell IS the alternative scene? This has been buggin me for a while. It seems it's just some stupid thing MTV made up to pakage a group of bands in the '90's.....

 

i guess your right.....it was called alternative music because it didn't fit any other catergory....at the time there wasn't punk or ska...metal was just metal


now theres black metal, death metal, speed metal, gloom rock, ect.


i guess it went out as soon as it became the norm

 

You are one silly man..... Punk was started in 1976 by the Ramones and Ska was started in the early 1950's by the Skatalites. Metal is pretty *** backwords too. All metal is now is one very $hitty rip of of Hardcore which was started in 1978 by Bad Brains.

 

I can't quote the times the bands started but don't you hate it when your uncool love becomes mainstream? I just can't wait for my favorite items to become uncool. JDM is almost dieing down and I can't wait for the buzz on the 240 to die.

 

dont start giving me that crap


i'm talking about.....punk wasn't mainstream, ska wasn't mainstream, and the entire country was just comming off hair metal bands

 

Are you saying the Sex Pistols, Blondie, and The Clash weren't mainstream? Hell, new wave was all repackaged punk bands same as grunge, 'cept 10 years earlier.

 

well take this at face value:

i dont really think i'm old enough to speak with any athority for that era of music in which the Sex Pistols, Blondie, and The Clash reigned supreme
