99% of rock music isn't any better that the top 40 mainstream

99% of all music isn't any better that the top 40 mainstream stuff, yet people like to pretend otherwise. Why is it?

Bad thread

Now, that's just not true.

99%? more like 100%

>>74282416
How did you determine that exactly? And which genres would you consider worthwhile?

>>74282620
>genres
I'm talking about subgenres but individuals bands/artists that manage to be the exception within the bounds of rock. Of course who these particular exceptions are, is not of my concern given they vary depending on the individual.

>>74282416
you idiot there's a lot more underground bands than there are top 40 so naturally underground bands are more likely to be good

>>74283401
>underground bands are more likely to be good
Incorrect. Most underground bands are just as bad as the average mainstream rock band. Same shit dressed in different clothing to trick retards like you into thinking it has more worth just because it lacks the over the top catchiness.
It's all about image and "vibe" instead of the actual music (which is as vapid as the more known stuff).

>its not good if it doesnt have 14 full length essays describing what it is

Saying this kind of bullshit means two possible things:

1.- Your taste is fucking garbage

2.- You have listened only 2 or 3 "underground" bands, and the ones you listened are also bullshit.

I think the problem you have is the 1st one.

Op listens to drake

>>74283718
I'm pretty sure you have never listened to bands like Gong, Comus, Banchee, Caravan, Pink Fairies, Happy End, Kak, Corpus, etc etc etc

nobody fucking knows what 'better' is, let alone what is better than what else or at what point this becomes 'good'
if only this board could just take on these facts and then 95% of all content could be deleted

So you're not actually serious and for all we know you could be Montie. Thanks for confirming at least something. Just leave this thread people.
