Sorry, apuz, I just saw that the Grammy idiots voted Tull as best heavy metal band. Do those knuckleheads even listen to the music??? Yup, they beat Metallica for Metal Album years ago, been one of the biggest jokes that they won it and were in that category to begin with. 2 hours ago, Steptide said: It's just a sign of the times. Rock/alternative music is all but dead due to lack of cd sales. The song is ok, but not song of the year by any means. Also the grammys tend to follow culture trends , so not surprised a song with a cultural message won. I said before the grammys even started Sunday night that there would be a heavy pro woman theme and low and behold they open with 4 super well known/famous woman. It's Hollywood, what do you expect. This is America I believe they also gave out all the metal, rock, and alternative awards before the show started, like how they give out most of the technical Oscar's the night before at a different show.

GETTOTHE50 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 The Grammys have been terrible for atleast a couple decades now. It’s just a bunch of music industry executives ***** each other off. I mean, even the Jonas brothers have Grammy nominations. That’s how big of a joke it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senator Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Grammys, Oscars, Emmys, Tonies, Golden Globes... all self-sucking self-worship tributes to themselves. None of their opinions are worth a dime . Certainly, I’ve had much more intelligent discourse on this website than we’ll see on television, particularly the extremely piss-lousy awards shows.

Since this has yet to be answered after 2 pages of people circle jerking about rock and roll or metal, I'll just quote a comment from the comment section. He’s smiling and dancing to distract you from the horrible stuff behind him, just like how entertainment distracts us from whats really happening in our societies.

stuvian Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Real music went out about 1993. What we have in its place is electronic pollution generated by an algorithm.

Many bands in the 70's and 80's sounded great in the studio with electronic filtering and sounded horrible live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a serious note, Spotify (and the like) is the greatest thing to happen to music since the Beatles. It exposes you to so many current artists that are putting out brand new music you actually want to listen to. Rock isn't dead.

The Poojer Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I know i have touted them before, but WXPN here in Philly has been the biggest influence on my musical adventure since my teenage formative years, they keep me current and also throw in a bit of 'classic' stuff just to keep me grounded. There really is a ton of music out there, granted if you are looking for newer versions of the old, then you might be disappointed but things from Father John Misty, to Brandi Carlile, Margo Price, Phoebe Bridgers, Dr Dog etc....all incredible music, hardly any of it mainstream. I suggest you find your local listener supported independent music station and discover all that is out there. 48 minutes ago, LeGOATski said: We're just living in a big simulation, man....

Every single time a station would play them, it would be immediately after a Zeppelin song. Yes, lazy radio station, we get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
