Until fairly recently, music has played a VERY minor part in my life. However, within the past year I've discovered a vast sea of glorious sounds that make me believe that mankind has not wholly failed as a species.
However, I have also encountered a barrage of stinging filth mucking up the works. Noise that I would vomit out of my stomach if it were food. Noise that makes me want to purge my eardrums.
The question I would like to raise to you, the average blocklander, Has music improved or crashed and burned within the last century?
I don't want to hear any "Sinatra was amazing!" (Truer words never spoken) or "Lady GaGa FTW" (makes me shudder), however examples are welcome as long as you do it somewhat as I will in a minute. I just want to know if music has ascended or crashed and burned within the last 100 years. I want no talk of styles, just wether it's gotten better or declined.
Music has gone down the toilet. Sinatra, Simon and Garfunkel, Rock and Roll -Those are beyond greatness. Rap, hip-hop, Beiber, GaGa -Not worth the air they breathe. That's about what i'm looking for.
