    cheers for the geography lesson. but it still sounded like balkan ska-metal by a bunch of armenians who settled in the states to me..

    anything else? :confused:
    Do you listen to a lot of Balkan Ska-Metal played by Armenian Americans?

    recorded music as a whole is part of the 20th Century. it has run its course. as a creative medium it is dead. when there is a teenager discovering pop music for the first time then that's fine, i can't criticize what they're getting from this. but hopefully over the coming years more and more people will realize that recorded music has run its course and cease recreating inferior reproductions. and i won't be constantly bombarded with forms of audio i have essentially heard before, not months or years ago but in a previous century. and more people will fly the flag for balkan ska-metal

    Here you go again with bizarre statements that make no sense. The only alternative to recorded music that I'm aware of is live music. Am I missing something?

    as you tend to do. its been recorded; its been documented. it should serve as a wake-up call to arrogant young tykes who thinks they've coined a new genre or style

    Sorry to wander off, but apart from kicking ass, why does everybody like Queens Of The Stone Age but if you tell them it's metal they look at you funny?
    Because it's hard/stoner rock. It's not metal.

    As I tend to do? What else have I missed then? And you haven't answered my question. You said recorded music is dead. What is the alternative apart from live music?

    Whether I'm a moderator or not should have no bearing on what you post (once you obey the charter obviously). If you can't take part in discussions rationally and maturely maybe this isn't the site for you?

    It is only in this modern age when virtually every musical concept imaginable has been experimented with that, paradoxically, much musical creativity appears to have been exhausted.

    plagiarism & imitation should keep rock and music in general ticking over for well, the rest of eternity.

    That really depends on what you hear as plagiarism. To me there is always music that sounds fresh enough to my ears for me to enjoy it. Even if it's of a style that sounds like it could have been around nearly 50 years ago.

    I think bands like Airbourne are almost more part of the problem in that they try so hard to sound exactly like ACDC as if to say, hey heres ACDC for your generation, it doesn't sound fresh so much as just a nostalgia product.

    Yeah, bands like Airbourne and the Darkness are where I draw the line myself.

    Hence why this forum is called Rock & Metal...

    I can't wait for this year's new releases - R.E.M., Foos, QOTSA, Jane's addiction, Radiohead, Stone Temple Pilots (maybe Pearl Jam and Soundgarden as well) to name a few.

    As long as great rock bands keep making great rock music I couldn't give a rabbit's t1t whether the genre is "dead".
