I suppose when I'm 20 years old, current pop/hophop generation is mine.
In a topic about meeting with Rick Wakeman I wanted to write this, but it grew and so I maked new topic.
It's sad thing. You said [rihana] and that's absolutely right person as a delegate of what is "in" now. It really leaves me in little bit desperate shape (what exactly IS desperate shape?). When you compare him (Rick) and her, even back in '60s when they had same age. His quality, importance in rock music and his person in general is ... no words needed guys, you know what I mean :- ) but how can be majority of current generation so much confused. Confused by imposters
In past times, maybe medieval times, they were listening to classical music. I mostly like classical music. Or acoustic instruments like guitar, lute, citar, these ones. Then came jazz which is quite good and relaxating, blues which I likes a lot (it's like rocking) and swing which I don't mind. Rock'n'roll of course I can handle, classic rock and then prog rock. Prog rock is my main source of music so leave it when it is.
But times has changes. Punk music has it's boom back in '70, I suppose end of decade (right or not?). I can listen to punk, but not too much since I consider this music as "not good for Marty" as it lacks prog elements (they can't be found there even in microscopic sizes, meant just for headbanging. But as I said, I sometimes listen to it. We had also reggage music, well, in my eyes it's music of stoners, mostly because of in this times it's like that.
Metal is not bad, heavy metal like Deep Purple is really good. Or Black Sabbath, Zeppelins. But speed metal is worse. Yeah, first two Keepers of the Seven Keys are good, but their later albums are not so good. And trash ? not good for Marty, death/doom metal ? What is point of this idiocy ? It's only about playing so loud that nobody can differ which instruments you are using. And also growling voice which can't be heard because it would surely doom me for my eternity. Oh boy, why has this genre so many followers.
And I don't have to say anything about this hop hop, hop pop, r and b (which inferiously twisted rhytm and blues to rhytm and beat sh.t), pop in general, do I ?
I'm sure I've just insulted someone, so please don't be insulted, it just because of lack of my facts. I like progressive music because it's hard to listen this music. I can't listen all prog music, but I'm trying to.
Mars Volta as a next checkpoint ? I will prevail and will keep on trying to get this artist, because this has meaning. He is good, now I will se if he's good for me too. For now he is not. But for fuc.ing sake (what is alternative to christs?) hop hop music ? It can't be good, right ?
