[quote Psurfer]Kraniac's astute observations could also be applied to the vast majority of recent musical acts. Nothing wrong w/being discriminating.
Even w/all the variety in genres, etc, it still seems to me that this time in the music industry is the most derivative I've ever heard it. (excuse the twisted grammar)
Could be. But most people that use blanket labels or wide-ranging dismissals of whole segments of music (etc.) have not even listened to that which they ridicule. It's easy to be dismissive. It's more difficult to absorb the work, process it and "then" share how one feels about it.
