I always prefered the Precambrian music ensembles.

I really think that the point was that music has become a very commenrcial excuse for creating music, and that tends to dilute the ability to tell what is better or worse, or listenable. And when new "sub-genre's" are created for neo-CDshops, that will never be selling that stuff anyway ... gotta love the irony there! ... it makes it look like some of the music since then is better, because it is more widely seen because of the internet.   The date basically says ... before Internet ... After internet. And 45 years ago, there was no Internet ... and hearing things like the Beatles, or Rolling Stones was amazing and totally different ... and original and creative -- because there was nothing else out there that was visible, or heard! Today, that is not an issue!   And with the internet, everyone can have their website and everyone can sell and everyone is a star! ... and I really think that is what the whole hooplah is about. It is a very valid comment ... but also one that is going to be mis-represented and mis-understood because everyone says something ... in their own language and no one is interested in anyone else's point, except to trash them ... how post 89 that is, btw!

All of the pre-89 music will soon fade into oblivion to be seceded by the vastly superior modern music. The noise created by these pre-89 caveman should not even be called music.  Say NO to the dark shadow of music past and embrace the present!  Yes but the Post-Post-Post-Retro guys will like the 70's prog in 2035. What about the Post-Post-Post-Neo-Retro-Neo-Post-Revival guys?

I still liked it when the Backstreet Boys were an underground band.

Are you kidding me! The 70s were the greatest era for music of all time and probably always will be. Prog or not late 60s and 70s were and still are amazing. Back then good recordings weren't necessary because many bands had talent! Now I'm not saying the prog of recent time is bad. Their are many great bands like PT and Moon Safari, but nothing can beat the classics- Pink Floyd, Genesis, Camel, Gentle Giant, VDGG, and Yes. All amazing bands!

But I do agree with you on one thing. The 80's were terrible. With the exception of Bacamarte.
