Suggesting that bands of today have totally progressed beyond 60s 70s 80s bands??
You must be pretty deluded, rock music today is just a pale reproduction of the riffs and chord progressions of everyone from the beatles to zeppelin / metallica to jethro tull.
If you about it, from the 50s to 80s music went from being quite basic singalong chuck berry style dances ('scummy houses') to the super technical, incredible architecture of the leaning tower of Yngwie Malmsteen (oooh - imagery). But after grunge etc, we're back again to the scummy houses....
I've heard music is meant to repeat itself.
