Can someone explain to me why there is no major culture interested in Rockabilly/Psychobilly? I'm 19 and when I go to shows I'm just surrounded by people in their mid/late 20's- 50's. Where are all the young people?
Cuz it's bad.

Because rockabilly/psychobilly is for racists who hunt for niggers down in the dark.
>>75148372
because its gay, and for ugly retards
>>75148444
>>75148484
>>75148500
This is why. It's a scene for older, more mature, people.
>>75148372
all the young folk are too busy with hiphop and avoiding like the plague anything that sounds redneck or hickish.
bitches don't know bout muh baboons

Rockabilly is my favourite music genre but the new stuff just doesn't do it for me, especially psychobilly. Maybe it's too self-aware. Original rockabilly was made by people who routinely wore cowboy hats and probably thought they'd go to hell for getting a tattoo.
>>75148484
Yeah because coons are a fucking plague on the US. Not as bad as mudshits, but still can't deny the facts: 13% of the population cause 51% of the crime.

this. if it's not god-fearing then what's the point
>>75148372
it is the steampunk culture of the music world
absolutely disgusting
it's shit people want something new

psychobilly is fairly classic and has a long history. Also, like it or not, all art is self aware, in its own way
It comes and goes in and out of fashion.
>>75149655
Psychobilly isn't classic at all. It's basically punk rock played within rockabilly structure. I'll post some authentic-sounding contemporary rockabilly in a second.
>>75149687
The Cramps are pretty classic m8.
>>75148372
The psychobilly/rockabilly revival happened in the early 90s thanks to bands like White Zombie and since then has been on life support with its only media outlets being vintage car repair TV shows
>>75149707
But not classic rockabilly. Try

>No drums
>Country influence ("-billy") intact
>No weird kitsch/pulp imagery
Gimme some essential psychobilly please. I've heard the term, but have no idea what it sounds like.
>>75149779
It's basically rockabilly plus punk.

>>75148444
Damn right it's bad
Reminder that this is the best rockabilly revival album ever.

Oh, I always assumed it was rockabilly + psychedelic rock.
Because it has no real cultural attachments
Its just kind of there with not much to say
>>75150028
Nope, but that would be interesting to hear.
>>75150010
I second this.
>>75150072
How can you say it has no cultural attachment? Maybe not in the current age but definitely in it's time. When I think Rockabilly I think instantly of America, although there are quite a few Psychobilly and Rockabilly bands that are not native to here, but nonetheless Rockabilly is attached to American culture. To bad that American culture is spoiled rotten now.

Some of my essential psychobilly anon
Carlos and The Bandidos are a personal favorite of mine mixing rockabilly with hints of surf and mariachi, but it's tasteful.

My point exactly, it's sad.
>>75150792
People would rather get fucked up on prescription pills and live a degenerate life of crime with the whole "thug" persona
>>75150774
Difference between niggers and black people. Niggers commit crime.
