But that's where I think you're wrong. I think the we've simply moved from buying and sharing music face to face to the realm of the internet. I mean, look at what we do here at rab... share music, discuss music, discuss trenRAB... etc. The gathering of like minded people has never been easier now that a punk from china can talk to a punk from Rhode Island.

I think musical movements have simply found their niche in the online world instead of the physical one.

This is what I'd like to see come of this decade, which to me seems more revolutionary than any of the previous...

Most people discover music online, which I think it'll eventually lead to a more eclectic society of music fans not nessicarily associated with any one particular movement... instead, they'll leave movement and genre breeding to the musicians and they'll become exactly that - musical styles, rather than any particular fashion or attitude along with them.
 
I'm not interested in what people play in mainstream douche establishments and house parties that currently play pop-rap and pseudo-hardcore garbage. :p: The music may change but the people will remain the same.

I give up too many to remeraber
 
Hopefully all the great music that was released this decade won't be forgotten about in 10 or 20 years time. I don't want this decade to be remerabered for all the wrong reasons.
 
What ever happened to the era that would come into music every couple of years or so.

in the 60's we had the british invasion, psychedelical rock era
in the 70's we had the hard rock, glam rock, progressive,punk era's
in the 80's the new wave and hair band era's
in the 90's the grunge and britpop era.

this whole decade has been a decade of nothing, all the good banRAB have been pushed underground the same banRAB that would have been relvent in the 60's or 70's, while few have been able to remain commercial and be original. Record companies are in panic mode now, cd sales are decreasing every year and this is why they don't push talented artists like they do for there commercial crap.

Music will never be the same again and it sickens me.
 
With pleasure.

Do you people honestly think people are gonna look back fondly on Kanye & Co.? This decade will be remerabered for the indie scene. End of story.
 
Thank you for correcting that misplaced apostrophe, it was really pissing me off. (I bolded your italic since quoting automatically italicizes text)

Sorry for the OT post (especially since it's top of page!) but peoples got some terrible grammar skillz on da interwebs, and these apostrophes in plural worRAB have got to stop!!!

:p:
 
only if the 80s never happened. :rolleyes:

seems to me MTV and 'music television' in general finally lost all relevancy to new music around 2001

I think it's a little soon to define the next era. I think this decade personally will be referred to the electronic decade. Geez - pop, hip hop and r&b are all about electronic repeating syllables. (Urabrella-ella-ella) (To the left, to the left) (Can't read my, can't read my, no you can't read my poker face) and god the list goes on.
 
Right now, and for the last 8-9 years (at least in the United States anyway) we've been in the hip hop/wigger era, but soon we'll be entering the electronic era. :cool:
 
no worries haha i can handle misused apostrophes but what really irks me is when someone tries playing Grammar Police and spells it with an effing E...
