Been saying for years that new music sucks because it's all forced to fit an algorithm. Then been told I'm just old and crusty. Which is true.

Listen to any pop, country or Christian music. (Forget rock and roll, it's long dead.) You can't tell the songs apart. Watch this video to see what I mean. Nashville cranks our garbage by the truckload.

I know there are a thousand independent artists doing their own thing, but I'll never hear them unless I wade through a mountain of crap I don't like. There's plenty of good shit from the 60s-90s to keep me happy.

Music was every bit as manufactured to shift units in the '60-90s, too.
