Well, I like "Fool in the Rain", "Who's Fooling Who" (Tony Iommi with Ozzy on vocals), and of course "Won't Get Fooled Again", whose video I posted a couple of days ago...

hahahah... as if I didn't love the Decemberists enough...
thanks to them... we now have this trainwreck of a thread.
Oh boy, what a time to be offline for three-or-so days - the fun I've missed!
I'm another Decemberists avangelist - to quote dear Freddie & Queen, See What a Fool I've Been.
But it's the invasion of the Troll that has me confused. My daughter was born in 1988 and my son in 1991. I guess this means she possesses virtue and worth while he... oh, never mind.
It's not that I can't find worth in anything, it's just that I can't find worth in enough.

So go ahead, consume the lies of the decemberists and the mars volta and opeth or whatever other chicanery you wish to imbibe... just know that every time you follow these demagogues, you're neglecting a pre-1989 artist and his/her masterpieces.

Some logical queries for dear Walter:
1 - What is the cutoff for music? Is it just 1990 + in general? Or did something magically vile and sinister occur December 31st at 11:59-January 1st 12:00? Keith Emerson woke up with a female expert in sexual physical services by his side and he decided that his b*****d child "prog rock" didn't have a right to live, therefore he announced his plans to go to wichita kansas....
Why is all music made post 89 worse than all music made prior? Because great people was born in 1988, therefore, nothing good could happen after such a religious event... Are you seriously saying that Bands like Foreigner, Motley Crue, and Quiet Riot are more original than any and all bands made past 1989? Well, yes... Mucho better then Hottie and The Blowfish and Candlebox... But also much better than Sigur Ros... although he was born in 1999.... And it's still whining.... What is the actual scientific assessment of it? Pure biology you fools!! All bands have influences. I don't see you damning Alan Parsons for his influences, which are much more defining than any influences I've found in maudlin of the Well. Because Alan Parsons was actually awake and sober when he recorded...
Would you go step by step with me? That's New kids on the Block... Is it some maniacal brain wave corruption? Good title for a post-1989 album... Can you define exact and precise proponents to your theory with proven scientific tests and backing?Try "The Dawn of the era of Anti-music and the death of thye arts" by Thomas Henry Guayasamin, Edit Anata, 1999, p. 234 What of birth before or after 1989?
What determines the quality? WalterlikestunesWhat if a band recorded a lot of songs in 1987, but only released them in 1991? Then Walterdoesn'tdigtunes Does that make the music bad? Walterfeelsmusicsucks How would you scientifically determine this?Walterconfused
Is it whent he music is recorded, or when it is released? Teoalsoconfusedbutdigstunes Did all songs unreleased prior to 1989 magically lose their quality when the year passed?Yes.... there was a cosmic event which all of you fools happen to ignore which caused this.... You should read your gazettes more you people of low information...
I would love a thorough and pragmatic response. Walterrunsaway
