Metallica off the top rope from out of nowhere

I agree but to add to what you've said, I think some Gen Z types are realizing that what is being produced today is mostly sub-par. I read something a few months ago about how as Nixon took us off the gold standard and the USD began to erode with inflation, so too has our American culture eroded as reflected in movies, music, comedy, etc.chuck said:
Classic rock has made a resurgence. I don't know who buys music anymore, but I know there are a lot of yutes with increasing interest in the roots of all the subgenres of pop music and rock in particular.BleachedAnusDawg said:
All good and well, but I'm talking about musical style. I'm also guessing those Beatles albums aren't selling to many under-50 year olds in 2022. Call me crazy.YellowSnow said:
The Beatles have sold a lot more records since 1990 than Metallica.BleachedAnusDawg said:
Yes, and nobody plays Beatles or Stones anymore.YellowSnow said:People still play this kind of music?
And for the record, I own all of the first 4 Metallica albums on compact disc or vinyl.
I know that at some point we all stop paying attention to the new stuff and are stuck living in the past.
While I'm not a huge fan of 70s rock (though I'm getting there), I can recognize that there is substance there that is lacking in the past 15-20 years.
Off the top of my head, I think music's most recent golden era was 1985-1998. Somewhere in there. -

Best metal band ever. Still killing it in their 50's. Does this new song stack up to 1981-1989 Metallica? Of course not. But it's still pretty good for a bunch of old dudes.

I could hear about five different Metallica songs in it. There’s a part after the solo that I keep wanting to finish it on my head with a riff from HelplessSwaye said:Best metal band ever.

There's also a new appreciation for artists that play instruments and write songs. They also recognize the influences that led to rock going in so many directions. Finally they realize that virtually nobody does it anymore and most of the digitally barfed out shit they hear now doesn't stack up in terms of artistry and talent.DerekJohnson said:

The voice box killed the video star who killed the radio star
When any dumbass can go into the basement and produce a song that sounds like every other song NOC
Not to be confused with real people using real instruments in a real garage to make a unique sound. Like Buddy Holly and the Crickets. People forget that a real cricket was in their garage
Chuck makes a good point here -
