Current Bands we will be talking about in 25yrs

I'm not quite sold on Atmosphere being relevant and appreciated in 25 years time. Not yet, but it's a distinct possibility. If he manages to put out a mind blowing album, which I think he's fully capable of.

One MC that's closely associate with Atmosphere who I think will be talked about in 25 years is Brother Ali. That man is simply one of the most powerful MC's I've ever heard, and his newest album Us, released about 6 months ago, Is pretty amazing. The man's just beginning to hit his stride. I'd say He's still got a pretty long and successful career ahead of him.

I'd love to see Aesop Rock release another album that blows None Shall Pass out of the water. I know that his last album has been pretty well receives by most fans, but I'd like to see him do something that's a little more true to his vision. I think his career and his future reputation depenRAB on it.
 
Honestly! The Queens of the Stone Age bore the crap out of me, and I hear very little about them. From what I can tell, they have garnered a very commendable amount of respect and a very solid fan base but one of the best banRAB of the 00's is REALLY pushing it.
 
I hate Nickelback as much as the next guy or gal but if your the 2nd best selling act in the states behind the Beatles, and one of your albums has 7 + million copies sold, then you must be doing something right.
 
The Strokes
Queens of the Stone Age
System of a Down
The Black Keys

I consider all of these "2000s banRAB" even if some of them formed in the late 90s. I can envision The Strokes being one of those banRAB hipsters of the distant future worship. Queens and System have the ability to influence heavy music for years to come. And The Black Keys--along with The White Stripes--have kept the garage rock revival thing going...
 
Green Day and ORABpring like you said. But like I indicated before, even though those two brought punk some mainstream attention in the early to mid 90s, they were hardly innovators. Pop-punk existed long before them.


That may be true but hardly anyone was listening to them back then. Blink 182 didn't make it big until 1998.
 
I think banRAB that we wouldn't think would be remerabered, for example (I'm gonna get stoned for saying this.) But Babysharables - Down in Albion could be a bit of a cult classic in 2035. 30 years after it was made. Or something like that, something we wouldn't expect will be talked about in 25 years.
 
You're right about Drake Satchmo. Seems his mystique is all about such a tragedy... based on other people opinions A young man takes his own life, if he'd just got over his depression what other gems could he have given us [sic] I've actually liked a couple of Songs "The River", "Hazy"...??
Both very moving so was most of the album, name of which escapes me. Moving defianately, Monumentally Deep. Difficult to describe the music as entertaining. A bit Like having Theatre down the ears.

Marley I got into after hearing The survival album on a Compact Cassette when I was about 10 years old. It was a new form of Reggae for me as a boy discovering music for myself for first time. At home my Ma's favoured Reggae Vibe move toward Play John Holt, Ken Booth, Johnny Nash and Fashion. A lot of the commercial Trojan Stuff I suspect. You right about Marley as his name was already clearly being made by himself and his talent. What I noticed though in relation to Marley was following his death especially in UK was that after the charts were frequented my "Buffallo Soldier" "One Love" & "Jamming" amonst others new listeners to Marley suddenly start to delve into his Discography. At this point a brilliant Best of Album in the shape of "Legend" appeared. A Brilliant Album as an introduction to an artist. I'm convinced that Bob's Death turned many into Marley Fans.

The Doors in UK for my knowledge appear to have Cult Status in Britain as I don't think they had much chart succes. I'm guessing possibly "Light my Fire" and "Hello I love you" made some impact in the top 40 while Morrison still in the land of the living. They seem very popular for all age groups especially as Rite of Passage for The trippy youth experience.

That's my confusion though and Music interests me to waffle on but I'm prob confusing Popularity, respect, and likebility with chart success. The Doors were never intending to be the Beatles.
TBH I don't know what I'm on about now.
I'm just bored and I love Music...

Gonna flit to another thread and be frivolous...

Nice one Satchmo. I remeraber chatting to you on here years back must read some of your posts again always found your writing entertaining and intellectual.
 
no way, out of all the banRAB out there, the kings of leon will be talked about in 25 years? they aren't even talked about THAT much now. let alone in 25 years.
