Why did mainstream rock die out in the mid 2000s? Was it because Obama?
>>
>>523930695
How 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.

Rock didn’t die, it moved to Australia.

Korn

Because black people became the sole culturally relevant force among the youth, and they don't listen to rock.
>>
>>523930695
There’s no rock that sounds new. Everything‘s been done.
>>
>>523930695
Because America became less white, and only white people listen to rock.

Remember 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 everything
and the day he took office indie rock disappeared and SoundCloud rap popped into existence
>>
>>523931500
Not really an argument when there's no pop, hip hop, r&b, or country that sounds new either.

no 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.

Aussies 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.

Jews unironically. The death of the middle class = no more angsty teens in the garage or basement rocking out against their boomer middle class parents
>>
>>523930695
It started in 95
50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 94
New original music
95-current
Complete shit
There are really good musicians
No original new sounds

John 5 the exception

>>523930695
It became popular and posers ruined it,
>>
>>523933821
Majority of Boomers grew up with Rock
Raging against everything
You do not know what you speak of
>>
>>523933821
So 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.

Bands 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.

So 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.

Soft boring riffs, if they can even be called that, the kind that became the template for soft indie rock acts

I 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.
>>
>>523935784
Still riffs.

This 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.
>>
>>523931391
The 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.
>>
>>523935931
Shitty 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 whatever

Rap music started incorporating a lot more crossover elements. Compare In Da Club or something off Graduation to literally any rap song from the 90s.

Fuck 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.

Slipknot in its heyday were extreme metal. Iowa is basically a death metal album. Not really fair.
>>
>>523933633
all trash core bullshit.

>>523930695
modern 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 internet
2002 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 overnight
No 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 concerts

Funny enough offsprings pretty fly with a white guy didnt help things either. Lots of white male mockery even then and they joined the bs
>>
>>523930695
Literally nigger worship. Rock was too white, so they kept pushing rap as hard as they could
>>
>>523937546
Slipknot are pretty accessible, wouldn't describe them as extreme at all
>>
>>523938003
kinda 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.
>>
>>523930695
Production 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.
>>
>>523935850
Yeah 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.

That's the only good band in that list.

it'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.
