I'm a big fan of music. No specific genre, just music in general. And music nowadays sucks balls! I mean, nobody buys CD's anymore so record labels are practically forced to sign shitty pop and rap groups who MIGHT be popular for a month. When was the last time a great band seemily popped up out of nowhere? There are only a handfull of really good modern artists who care about music. please comment

Some I can think of are: System of a Down, The Mars Volta, Velvet Revolver, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, Beck, The Smashing Pumpkins, Breaking Benjamin, Kings of Leon, Wolfmother, Local H, i guess Rage Against the Mahcine is technically active today, and rappers include Mos Def, Mf Doom, Common, Talib Kweli, Kanye West, Kanye West, Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, Nas, and Eminem (but he recently retired.)
