Since so many Voxers answered my last post (Hey Richard!), today I'm going to rant about the so called new music...

On my way to work today, I had my iPod pumping out the Klaxons. I mean, they are good, it's a good album. Nothing more! It's like Arctic Monkeys + Bloc Party, aren't they? Let's see how they look like in photos... [Goes to Google] Oh, god. That's them. Bloody Kids who can't dress. See for yourself! Well, I shouldn't be mean, I really do enjoy their sound, I'll listen to them some more :)

Then I tried LCD soundsystem... But I was not in the mood so I gave up after three songs and switched to Tv on the radio, their first amazing album, so deep, dark and emotional.

And I'm also listening to the new Arcade Fire (brilliant), Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (brilliant, love his voice), this Jason Collett guy (nice), the album from Mika (shit), and Year Zero by Nine Inch Nails (disappointing).

What's happening? It seems nowadays you don't need to know how to play an instrument to be in a band, you just need to keep one single chord straight for three minutes while your singer is explaining how his days are boring and depressing and he's in love with someone who's clearly fucking with someone else. What's happening guys! Is this the best we can do?
