Is all the best music American? (2 Viewers)

Actually, hold on a sec - the golden age of American indie? Am I missing something?

I don't buy many CDs, but Mike if you're losing faith in UK music you should get "Boy in da corner". Makes my hair stand on end

I can't see how naming a record that is two years old is going restore anyones faith in current UK music??

Does music only come from America and the UK?

yeah - and then Australians set up tribute bands to them.

the best music in the world is from mali.

but, i think the real question is why is there no real bands any more? led zeppelin, so many people went to their shows. BUT they were a quality band, no one can deny that. now, english bands just try to copy them or parts of them or parts of the no wave scene from NY in the 70's.

seriously, the age of giants is gone. we're living in the age of pretenders. the only real band is the ex and they're not even young.

what's my point? will there ever be an original rock band like led zeppelin who will capture people's imaginations like they did? will most of the people ever like something genuinely good again? i'd like to think so but i doubt it. the wave broke and rolled back. it's hard to find anything sincere these days - that's why i have so much trouble simply living. sometimes it's torture. then you go to an ex show and you're ok for another few months.

the end.

i dunno. in 20 years people will probably go on about U2 the same way some do Led Zepplin. I'm sure back in the day the zep were called all sorts of shite.
