I have to admit.. i hate Evanescence.
Worst band that made it big in a long time.
Seriously, they put out bad music time and time again.
Amy Lee (i think that is her name) is also one of the WORST live singers i have ever heard. She is absolutly terrible (not to mention ugly, flat and in dire need of a tan[and singing lessons])
Music doesn't have to be "good" in order to make it worth listening to. Nor do the musicians (not artists. Modern music is NOT art) have to be talented. The only music that is "good" is classical music, and the only artists who are talented are classical musicians (of course, there are exceptions to these rules. Alot of modern day musicians have talent, and their work can be considered art, but the ratio of talent to crap is depressing) Anyways. I listen to punk rock. Not Avril BS punk rock, real punk rock. From a musical stand point it sucks. From a literary stand point, the lyrics suck. In fact, it's got to be some of the <img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif>tiest music around. However, I still love listening to it and rocking out like a moron. I love Bob Dylan as well. His lyricas are amazing but his voice sucks. However, I still love it to death. My point is that music does not have to be "good" in order for it to be worth listening to.
It seems like you totally misunderstood the concept of music.
Music IS art, no matter when it was composed or what genre it is.
There are more talented musicians today then it was in the 18th or 17th century,
because music is more common today then it was back then.
If you for example look at the art of drawing,
the most common art you will see, is grafitti or "[insert random name] was here".
That doesn't mean it's the best there is.
You don't have to stick to what MTV/the subway station feeds you.
IMO, people listen to music because it sounds good
and if the music sounds good, it is good music.
The talent of composing is relative depending who's judging it.
There is more to music then just copying famous musicians who set the standards,
or being able to handle your instrument well.
*Nods head for Jrgen* I agree.

[Life is Eternity in a nutshell]
I'm a little sickened by Good Charlotte. I like the quote "If Good Charlotte looked like they sounded, they'd be wearing pink frills and tutu's."
Not exact, but close.
Well I Luv em so that's that.
Yeah.. Punk nowadays sucks as well. Er, did I say Punk? I meant Emo.
The few bands who are stiill alive from way back, like Rancid, Bad Religion, and Fugazi are now starting to go soft. Well, maybe not Fugazi, since they're the only ones who still do shows for $3.
What you see now isn't Punk. Punk wasn't about making money at all.
avril.

That's such a stupid statement really. You should try reading the lyrics to some rap songs like "World So Cruel" and "Ghetto Gospel." But I know you didn't, because you're too biased to give it a chance.
Anyways, bad bands start with Hanson. Then we can trickle down to...let's see, some one hit wonders include - Yellowcard, Bowling For Soup, and probably Simple Plan. These bands only have 1 good song and the rest is just junk. Too much screaming and loud guitar playing. And please, their voices suck. They can barely hit an octave.
I agree with the Simple Plan comment, and maybe even Bowling For Soup, but I like Yellowcard. I love how they incorperate violins into their music. *can't get enough of violins*
I really don't like goth bands and also rappers. I don't think I'm really quallified to say that I like Evanescence, seeing as how I've only heard three of their songs, which I've liked, but so far their music isn't bad, in my opinion.
:monster2: One, AH! AH! Two, AH AH! Three, AH AH!
most of the bands that suck are the ones on mtv. everyone thinks they are good, but they have no talent and the band knows it too. i was reading a guitar magazine, and it had the guitarist from i think it was new found glory and the guys said he couldnt play the intro to "fade to black". now ive only been playing guitar since august, and im not going to say im a great guitarist, BUT i can play fade to black. now what does that say about the band/guitarist. now a days bands have 0 talent.

As always, the best music is found "underground".
