Saying that many modern bands are rip off of older bands is like saying that Tremulous is a bad rip off of Gloom.
Uh, Tremulous *is* a ripoff of Gloom.
Ups, I think that what I wanted to say was "modren bands are
bad rip off of older bands is like saying that Tremulous is a bad rip off of Gloom".
Which means = Metallica brought this type of music (grunge, thrash, heavy metal, whatever you wanna label it as) to life and mainstream success in the 1980's. And these new geek bands are destroying it.. Misquoting me to prove your point only makes you look stupid... No offense..
This shows how large your musical culture is.
Yeah, and that's why good (off course it depends of the pov) bands like Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Kraftwerk and Joy Division have post-punk influences.
Sorry but your little bands there have got nothing... Metallica put out another album just last year, And they still outsold them. Death Magnetic... You kids need to look this type of thing up, maybe listen to some of these 'older' bands you say are so terribly old and see how these 'modern' dweebs took their sounds from the real bands back in the good ol'days.
Sonic Youth was formed in 1981, Joy Division in 1976, Kraftwerk in 1970.
Metaliclol was formed in 1981, like Sonic Youth. And I don't think a trash metal band could influence new-wave bands like Joy Division or Kraftwerk, especially when this band was formed after them.
I like old band and I never said they were "terribly old". My grammar is not perfect, yeah, sorry for that, but whatever, you can understand what I say, can't you ?
