  We have no real great bands anymore. In the time of internet, instant consumption and large choices. No band will leave such deep marks on people as some bands did in the 70's and 80's. Radiohead is important, but its way behind bands like Pink Floyd, Genesis or Led Zeppelin, in terms of marks leaved in history.

  Iam adding like 5 to 10 new albums each week in my iTunes library... its impossible to REALLY listening to them all carefully. In the 70's when you were buying a vinyl, you were listening to it until it doesnt play anymore. You had wanted it, you really choosed it and you paid for it... And you were not buying 10 vinyl each weeks.

  iPod killed the music as we knew it. Is it for the best?

  • Like Andy Warhol said, everyone gets 15 minutes of fameukit
  • I think it's rather futile to say something like this, when it's not even something we'll know for another 20+ years...ismith
  • See, I agree in terms of Floyd, Zep, et al... but I don't think they rule out current bands.ismith
  • All of those guys were heavily influenced by people before them too, but for us it's just too far removed.ismith
