Dano is gonna cut you for Wet Leg.

80s style rock is dead for a reason, grandpa.

I'm not talking about 80s style rock though, I'm talking about any rock in the mainstream. - ty97 Jan 6, 12:17 5
- Just call it all rock. Remember, a rock band's radio hits are usually a poor representation of who they are as artists. Historically, anyway -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 12:21 2
  - Certainly I'm not equating success (sales, charts, etc) with quality by any means -- nm - ty97 Jan 6, 12:49 1
    - Of course you weren't. I'm actually not sure what I was getting at there, sonny -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 13:02
- "mainstream" Quit moving the goal posts!!! -- nm - Spawn Jan 6, 12:18 1
  - I'm not moving the goalposts, just explaining where the question came from - ty97 Jan 6, 12:20
Italy's Maneskin won last year's Eurovision. (Edited to remove the recent LAT story. Didn't seem very "rock n roll" to include that. Heh.) -- nm* - con_carne Jan 6, 12:16 4
- They, oddly enough, are part of what drove my pondering on this topic, because they have a song that actually broke through to popular radio. -- nm* - ty97 Jan 6, 12:17 3
  - Yep. Beggin' -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 12:18 2
    - I wonder if Tik Tok helped or vice versa -- nm - St. Epiphany Jan 6, 12:28 1
      - there are 6 artists on my station that made it because of Tik Tok -- nm - Remlik Jan 6, 12:32
You stole what I was going to say almost exactly. Top 40 stations have only sporadically liked rock. -- nm - Reagen Jan 6, 12:14
I agree with spamcumber -- nm - St. Epiphany Jan 6, 12:10
