But someone is buying this drivel, or they would stop manufacturing it.Wow what an article!
The more I ask younger people than I about what they think of modern pop music, the more I realize that the creators & participators in the industry these days have douched themselves right out of popular relevance- what a fucking circus sideshow pile of shit.
The symptom of their irrelevance is this: The fact that they have to manufacture "hits" unnaturally- without the song actually being a hit because it's popular- they just pour dump trucks full of money into it until the song is so saturated in the eyes of the public that it seems to be a hit song. Artists are fully capable of simply writing a song, & of having people like it because it's good, not just because it's just kinda there, everywhere they look on the net, on tv, on the radio. Look at the thread about how much money it takes to create a hit song these days. They have to work so hard to keep up their illusion of greatness in the eyes of the public, that it just turns in the VMAs- overcompensating to such a degree that it's becomes a joke.
And every time I talk to younger people (teenagers and those in their 20's ) the more I feel that most people see right through it. People like real music, & most of the time they know it when they hear it.
I've had glue in my ears the last six months too, I guess.
I wish it were ice picks after listening to those Mary Halvorson songs and checking out a Camper Van Beethoven song messedup0 :chow2:

Yeah - pretty much what I figured the VMAs were. Amazing that he had to pay for his own ticket.
Well, they have to make the videos so that there is something to show in Hot Topic while kids buy their school clothes.Music video director is an actual job still?
