Why did mainstream rock die out in the mid 2000s? Was it because Obama?
>>23779246How do you even know what's in the mainstream. Are you a normalfag?I'm literally entirely clueless about what would be considered mainstream, and have been for 15 years or so, ever since I stopped being a fucking child.
>>23779246Rock didn’t die, it moved to Australia.
Korn..the ultimate coomer-core band
>>23779246Because black people became the sole culturally relevant force among the youth, and they don't listen to rock.
>>23779246There’s no rock that sounds new. Everything‘s been done.
>>23779246Because America became less white, and only white people listen to rock.
>>23779246Remember when Twenty One Pilots and indie rock was everywhere and people said >Society's going to shit, I'm going to vote for Donald Trump! He'll fix everythingand the day he took office indie rock disappeared and SoundCloud rap popped into existence
>>23779251Not really an argument when there's no pop, hip hop, r&b, or country that sounds new either.
>>23779250> black people became the sole culturally relevant force among the youthJust like how skateboarding used to be "cool" now its a niche hobby.

>>23779246no more dominate White culture because browns are all over. No cohesive culture for anything anymore, so fashion has pretty much stated the same too. Kids have no real identities or subcultures to gravitate toward. It's an economic zone now, not a country.
>>23779248Aussies have some top tier bands, Polaris, Northlane, Thornhill, Make Them Suffer. Parkway Drive is normie tier but they are huge.France is also huge these days, lot's of good bands coming out of France.
>>23779246Jews unironically. The death of the middle class = no more angsty teens in the garage or basement rocking out against their boomer middle class parents
>>23779246It started in 9550s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 94New original music95-current Complete shitThere are really good musicians No original new soundsJohn 5 the exception
>>23779246It became popular and posers ruined it,
>>23779260Majority of Boomers grew up with RockRaging against everything You do not know what you speak of
>>23779260So in other words Obama did it. The way he handled 2008 killed the middle class by bending the knee to the jewery, bailing out the banks and letting wall street buy out the real estate markets. >ron-paul-you-didnt-listen.jpg
>>23779246Bands like radiohead and the strokes came in with riff allergic rock (riff heavy rock was degraded to ‘butt-rock’), rock music became the genre for soft wristed college kids and guitars became more and more ansillary until we got bands like imagine dragons with barely any raw rock power being the face of rock music.
>>23779246the /minor league system/ was killed, basically.
>>23779265The Strokes have riffs
i stopped listening to the offspring when that irrelevant faggot pushed the jab desu
>>23779253So you are saying it is a cultural attack?
Mainstream rock in the 2000s was Marilyn Manson, nu-metal, and low effort 10th generation xeroxes of Nirvana (who were a ow effort xerox of The Pixies). There's more dignity in death than to be agonal breathing on a hospital bed with tubes in your mouth.
>>23779268Did he really?Insane lmao

>Obama did itIt didn't just become stale in america
What's the next genre of music to come? It feels like everything is played out and gay
>>23779267Soft boring riffs, if they can even be called that, the kind that became the template for soft indie rock acts
>>23779246I still listen to old rock from when I was younger. Occasionally, I'll hear something produced recently and listen to it but it doesn't have the same effect. I don't give a fuck if anyone understands what I do or give a shit.
it became soft and edgy filled with suicidal idealogies. most kids turned to rap.
>>23779275Still riffs.
>>23779247This way of thinking is why the right has been mocked forever by most of the youth. It's why we have no media made by us. When you give up the largest forms of media to the left because you're too cool for it, you get blacks ruling it. Don't be like this guy who's "too cool" for mainstream.
>>23779250The question is, how did they become the sole culturally relevant force among the youth seemingly overnight? Do you think it had anything to do with Billboard reclassifying the definition of pop music and replacing basically every non-rap song on the top 40 chart (a huge deal at the time) with nothing but muh dick on repeat for 20 years?Im an oldfag and rap was about as popular as grunge music is now before that happened.
>>23779278Shitty weak riffs for fags, the stuff that actually rocked at the time were lumped together and called butt rock while fags praised weak guitar music like the strokes and coldplay or whateverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw2LU1yS7awhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY011yVrsPAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za54T0KNXxU
Don't mind me, just posting the best rock album to come out in the past decade
>>23779280Rap music started incorporating a lot more crossover elements. Compare In Da Club or something off Graduation to literally any rap song from the 90s.
>>23779246it didn't zoomers love julie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNGgj5-Dwlk
>>23779246Fuck these faggots and fuck Dave Grohl..Offspring threw out their drummer because of COVID vaccines and Grohl killed his by forcing Taylor to get the vaccine when he already had heart damage from a heroin overdose in 2001.Fucker was more concerned with profits than his friends health.Fuck him.
>>23779285this
>>23779281Slipknot in its heyday were extreme metal. Iowa is basically a death metal album. Not really fair.
>>23779259all trash core bullshit.>>23779246modern production killed music. People began to have high expectations for music due to being exposed to overly produced, auto tuned music. Live local bands couldn't compete with the high production.
The internet2002 to 2003 was the dude youre getting a dell era ...and being on the web for white dudes was like year zero.Past prefernces died overnightNo white dudes were making bands as it was kinda cringe at that point and games and web were where it was at.Plus rap music was everywhere, especially at the clubs and white chicks flocked to that instead of rock concertsFunny enough offsprings pretty fly with a white guy didnt help things either. Lots of white male mockery even then and they joined the bs
>>23779246Literally nigger worship. Rock was too white, so they kept pushing rap as hard as they could
>>23779287Slipknot are pretty accessible, wouldn't describe them as extreme at all
>>23779289kinda true. Pop rock survived for a while but it went so far in the overly produced direction it became impossible to replicate for garage bands.
>>23779246Production costs. Producing a few shitty drum beats and mumbling over them costs pennies compared to recording a full band in the studio, then mixing and mastering a whole album. Forcefully push those tracks to the top of the charts via nonstop radio time and media integration, and voila.
>>23779277Yeah when you see the goth girls going for niggers you just give up. Last concert I went to that was rock was a sausage fest.
>>23779259>Parkway DriveThat's the only good band in that list.>Cry me a fucking river BITCH *melodic guitar line* *chug chug chug chug chug*
>>23779247reddit
>>23779291bruhhttps://youtu.be/p3LWd5JFYbs
>>23779295it's horse shit. The last good metal band was Pantera, and every dog shit metal core and nu metal band tried to copy them. They ruined the genre by setting the bar so high and pushing it so far.
>>23779293Can't wait till the sun EMPs us

>>23779246A beat track and a monkey are cheapest
