It is just some cat trying to prove how "cutting edge" he is by clowning on music that was popular in the past. Nothing new. The same sentiment gave birth to punk (Billy Idol was once recording in the same studio as Led Zeppelin and cussed them out as "old f***ers" in the hallway) and to grunge.
Its cool... I'll still listen to what I like and tune out what I don't. I'll say this, though... the younger generation can't really say sh** about our music because they've got Backstreet/NSync/Brittney /ETC hanging from their necks like a f***ing albatross... [Reply]
I'm not sure why these guys think they're qualified to be music critics. Look like a bunch of Seattle Bloggers to me. As with anything on the Net, consider the source of the info before you accept it as truth. [Reply]
I currently own ONE of the listed albums. At one point I think I had two others on tape. I've never heard of a quarter of the artists, and couldn't connect songs to half the ones I have heard of.
Either I'm not even remotely with it, or I just have really good taste. :-) [Reply]

Synchronicity. I had Dark Side of the Moon on tape years ago, but never replaced it. All my cassettes have gotten into the wind in one way or another. I think I had that Doors album on tape, too. That's pretty much it. [Reply]

Guess what, I'm keeping them all so he can go f*ck himself. Any rock album can look childish , pretentious and especially out of fashion from a certain cynical point of view. But if you buy music because you care about what other people think, you're just a lemming who needs to be put out of your misery anyways.
