If I wanted to listen to something like the Strokes, I can go back to a dozen different albums from the NYC bands in the late 70s and hear the real McCoy. <br /><br />I'd love to not be able to keep up. That would mean something innovative was happening. Instead, I've just become disgusted with the musical parody that rock and roll has become. Rock used to piss off one generation to the next because it was edgy and vital. Now it is just boring and cliche. That is why a lot of us hate The Strokes and their ilk. They are critical darlings and the next big thing simply because they are little more than a poor facsimile of the last big thing. Influenced is one thing. Being a terrible clone is another.<br /><br />People like you propping up what is little more than a farce allowed to happen by critics and the cultural intelligentsia are who have killed rock. It's turned something once reckless and fun into nothing more than a genre of standards. The Strokes have far more in common with a bunch of music school students soullessly belting out jazz standards than Little Richard or Joey Ramone.jc1575https://www.blogger.com/profile/14152851514945346698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8290900913414076199.post-14234044889152064272013-03-15T15:16:36.817-07:002013-03-15T15:16:36.817-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.jc1575https://www.blogger.com/profile/14152851514945346698noreply@blogger.com
