ParticipantI liked Agent orange (until they went through their disappointing heavy metal phase in the late 80’s to compete with bands like Motley Crue). I always thought Butthole surfers were better and one of the greatest bands to see live.

ParticipantI was into these dudes before anyone. Wanted me to be their manager. I called bullshit on that.

Participant[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]fredo4: Having kids myself, no, I haven’t been to any shows recently (unfortunately).
I have to admit my tastes as of late have been veering into “heavier” metal, such as All Shall Perish, Crowbar and Meshuggah. I’ve continued to listen to the Misfits, but I haven’t heard anything interesting from that front in a while. Some of the more offbeat Industrial stuff is good (like Front 242 and Skinny Puppy), but Ministry seems to have put it into the ditch as of late.
The latest NIN is good, and the latest Metallica is passable, but you have to stray pretty far out of the lines to hear anything original anymore. You mention commercialization and I think the music industry has pretty well killed originality or at least “American Idol-ized” it (meaning, they’ve reduced it to insipid, easily packaged pap like Carrie Underwood).
Sorry. Didn’t mean to get off on a rant there. And, yeah, I’ve seen Black Flag in concert. Saw them up in San Francisco. Great show – the part of it I can remember. =)[/quote]
You’re right- there is nothing new or original.
What I think is funny is that kids are still listening to the same bands that I was when I was a kid. I see teenagers walking around with Bad Religion shirts and Suicidal Tendencies shirts all the time. My niece just went to see the Damned. Those guys must be ancient- I saw them like 25 years ago when I was a teenager. They can’t possibly be that menacing looking now. -
