Was rock just a fad?

Metal is extremely alive and innovating, so no. Unless you count that separate from rock.

I don't know mate. Anyway, some of the best music is rock music.

*classical

another day another copypasta

all we need now is that grimes=mozart thread

>>70970316
nobody gives a fuck about metal tho

>>70970372
Classic, Metal, Rock, and Jazz are very closely related

>>70970284
why that nigga look like the white oj simpson

>>70970372
Yeah, some of the best music is classical, what is your point?

>>70970394
Metal and rock are just white R&B

>>70970284
>funk/soul gets ignored again

>>70970284

rock is Folk music. As David Lee Roth used say....Van Halen was just folk music delivered at maximum impact....so, given that reality, it looks like its got some legs.

>David Lee Roth as an authority on anything

lol

Rock is coming back 2017 you heard it here first. Mac Demarco's new album will literally save rock from the grave.

>>70970284
Who is your favourite modern composer, OP? Favourite modern jazz artist?

>>70970284
Rock isn't dead, it's just fallen out of favour with the mainstream listening audience like folk and jazz have (and classical to an extent). It's certainly past its peak though.

Rock is shitier than before. Still people listening to it tho

When will rap die you think? 2020?

Feels like it's going through the stagnation stage like rock did with all the shitty meme trap dominating the scene. Rap is at the "nu-metal" stage.

Why do people shit on AM so much? The people who listen to them aside, they're not bad

>>70970756

>>70970664

Clearly you havent foggiest...Diamond Dave is a sage.

rap will probably never die honestly. non-white people love rap and they are going to become the majority very soon. not even being /pol/ or anything

>>70970284
>electronic
>still innovating

I'd say it's devolving but you do (You)

You can even hear blatant Black Sabbath influence, rock is far from dead.

>>70970284
Just because rock isn't the dominant force in popular music anymore doens't mean it's dead, fucktard

This picture always looks weird, it doesn't look like he is actually leaning on that piano. Also monogrammed shirt.
