the future looks really really bright and theres lots of drugs and alcohol and real rock stars around. just the way it should be.

is it getting big because its being pushed by the industry, or because its what people genuinely want? I mean all these bands in the charts offer nothing new atall. I think its just a marketing ploy, playing up to a new generation of naive kids who aren't already sick to death of the derivative rubbish which is being peddled by the major labels and the media.
It makes me fucking puke, to see 15 year old kids worshiping shit like iron maiden and jimi hendrix. It's not because they are enchanted by it, it's because they think its trendy. It was their bloody *parents* who really felt it and loved it.
Where is the sound of this generation? Cuz at the moment, it appears to be the sound of a big corporate fatcat slurping down champagne and shitting mcdonalds cheeseburgers.
