musica moderna y nueva

maintaining a music blog that never gets updated has cool advantages. I get lot’s of new music from new bands/artists. Best of all, thye sound great, and are going through the effort of contacting poeple online to listen to them, in addition to touring their asses off. Kudos to these new groups, you are teh future of music.

Now, let’s go to the present, with established artists releasing the new shit… in my opinion, there’s just some I don’t like. I don’t like the new Jay-Z. The new Weezer sounds weaker and lamer then their most recent album. I’m not even going to bother discussing the new Snoop Dogg or U2.

Many successful artists find themselves a comfort zone after making it big with lots of hits. The artists I mentioned above, with the slight exception of Weezer because I honestly believe are batshit crazy, are in that zone. They’re winging it, phoning it in. Meanwhile, they shill products or go on massive stadium tours, and remain successful, critically. Unless you’re Depeche Mode, they… just break my heart.

There is so much good, very good, new, very new music not available at Best Buy or Wal Mart, and that… is such a cool feeling. And you can find it and buy it all online.

P.S. I have been drinking wearing my Clark Kent costume from Friday night…
