Why does my generation's taste in music suck much???
Man my generation's taste in music is utterly two bricks short of load...
These dumbass musicians who make music playing like electric keyboard and musicians like afrojack, like mike etc...need to stop... Most of my High school friends, enemies, what?- maybe teachers... young ones... Say they listen to this c*ck and bull... It is driving me crazy, they think they are cool hipsters by listening to that.

I PERSONALLY prefer "old school" ones such as Queen, Europe, Iron Maiden... They are f*cking good and make sense... & are legendary. And yes I am 14

No. I said I don't have nothing against them.
Music is not a thing to debate on. If you like the old stuff you should listen to it. But if others like other stuff you just can't force the world to come back to Queen, Scorpions etc.

I know, at least I know someone agrees with me ;)

Every generation has a few gems and a lot of terrible stuff. While you might look back and say "Song X was truely great. Nothing can compare to them", you have to remember that for every Song X, there were thousands of songs that were terrible. However, the ones that were good get remembered while those that weren't get forgotten. Go look at the top 50 songs of any year you thought was great and find a song you've never heard of. Listen to it and then say that generation was good.

By and large music has tended to suck the worst when the music industry types were doing well and had a fair bit of control over what was released and sold. Think late 70s prog-rock and disco, think 80s hair rock, late 90s, and pretty much the entirey of 2000-on.

The rare times when music gets interesting is when someone can take something that's new and interesting and manage to sell it through (or around) the existing corporate system. This tends to cause the music industry to go into a panic, dump the crappy bands they've got and go on bidding wars for "new and interesting" acts that have existed for some time which they've either been ignoring or have had in their stables on the back-burner for some time.

Elvis Presley didn't invent rock'n'roll, he just made what was already there sellable to white kids. Sex Pistols didn't create punk rock, they just put it over the top. Some of the "new bands" who got major contracts after Nirvana hit it big had been around for ten years or more.

Speaking of Nirvana, I was around at the time and watched a few of my friends get those deals (very often awful deals that left them indebted for some time). Within a year or two you started to see "alternative" bands getting major label contracts the record industry way. They'd start off as cover bands or (even worse) tribute bands. Any surprise that they wound up playing formulaic pap for mass-consumption?
