I can't think of anything released in 2005 that is any good. Everytime I turn on the radio, everything I hear is crap. the one exception is Cigaro by System of a Down. BYOB is okay, but kind of mellow for those guys. The whole new album seems weak. I like melody, but for these guys, I want them to be heavier, not wimpier.
And why is it so many bands release a heavy first album, and then they ***** (rhymes with wussy) out? I hate that. I want heavy music, not girlie music.
I try to keep up with new music. Some of it is decent. I liked godsmack. And of course system of a down. And tool (though their music is in a class of its own). Even the one hit wonders had some decent songs. Like that song: she ****ing hates me (last year). But every time I turn on the radio now, I hear nothing redeeming at all. Just pale imitations of the music that was popular the past few years.
It's a good thing I still have all my old tapes and CD's (and mp3's). I miss when Thrash music was popular (it was never really popular, but there were many bands doing it). I miss guitar solos. Even Metallica doesn't do them anymore. Are these new bands so devoid of talent and inspiration they can't come up with a decent guitar solo?
Name me some good new music please.
The other day when driving in California I happend to turn on a jazz and a classical station. That music is very relaxing when driving. It makes me want to kill people less when driving. You know you are getting old when you start liking classical and jazz music. I need to find stations like that in Vegas. The one station I was listening to was 91.5 in Los Angeles.
Another sign I'm getting old was when I was at Hooters recently. I kept thinking these girls are just underdressed. It wasn't even hot outside (in fact, it was downright cool in San Diego), and these girls were just underdressed. I really don't care to see women dressed like that anymore. It doesn't do anything for me. Although that might be a sign I'm turning gay.
