I hardly ever enter the small talk section, so forgive me if this is an old topic that no one wants to read about, but I couldn't help but make a comment and I can't believe I am going to defend modern rock here (God forgive me). I am young (25), but I can relate to this topic because I never listened to the music of my generation. I grew up on my parents records from the 50's, 60's, and 70's and classic rock radio stations. For the most part I totally agree with all your opinions of today's music, however, if you flip on the right station, you may actually hear some stuff you'll like. Amid all the uninspired modern rock out there, you can find a great tune every once in awhile. These are probably from artists who have true talent and grew up listening to "classic rock." Give it a shot some time.
