Why does music of the last 100 years suck?

By the way, the girl in that picture is underage-which means you're all a bunch of nasty old pedophiles!
Music in the last 100 years HAS been slowly decaying. Being an illiterate musician is the norm, being able to play extended chords is considered "advanced," and music theory is dismissed by lazy "musicians" as "one way among many," arrogantly bolstering the absolutely absurd claim that the meticulous exploration by composers of the last millenia is no better than the tinkering of any half-whit with an electric guitar and tape recorder noodling with power "chords."Last edited by kamalayka; 02-25-2011, 10:26 PM.

music is representative of the society in which it is created. to say music has decayed over the last 100 years, one has to look at the societal differences between now and 100 years ago. if you look at the way music was created and shared in 1911 compared to now, there is really is no comparison. 100 years ago, music was performed, often for small crowds. today any joe blow can buy a home studio that rivals or surpasses the technology of studios from the 60's, 70, and 80's. this has enabled the spread of mediocre music. to stand out as a musician in 1911, your talent had to be stunning.
while segovia was a phenominal player, he was not a composer. he played what others composed for him. so it that respect, one could argue that frank zappa is a "greater" talent since frank composed for multiple instruments and created works, whereas segovia just played guitar.GEAR:
some guitars...WITH STRINGS!!!! most of them have those sticks like on guitar hero....AWESOME!!!!
some amps...they have some glowing bottle like things in them...i think my amps do that modelling thing....COOL, huh?!?!?!
and finally....
i have those little plastic "chips" used to hit the strings...WHOA!!!!

I think he has become the most popular poster of the day,Jeez..That took no effort at all.So I guess I'm just a lazy guitarist because I never learned music theory?And I guess I'm illiterate as well.This guy wins the douch of the year award by far.I guess knocking other people makes him feel better about his tiny prick.BLS/SDMF

Yes, I am a douche. I am one big, fat arrogant prick. I have such a huge ego that it overpowers me. But at least I don't resort to personal attacks when I am wrong.
And yes, you are right. My wee-wee IS tiny. . . but only because I thought that the shrink-ray machine was a urinal. Dammit, I live in room carved in a massive tree with a carrot cake covered in cement daffodils connected by chains to my squirrel. How would that make you feel? Don't steal mah shoes!
