In response to "I backboarded to the part where Ty asked if rock music was dead and I got so angry... so so angry. -- nm" by Qale

I'm with ty97, I think there are multiple dead genres, and rock is one of them. Same with rap.

Rap music today is AWFUL.

You may not like it but it doesn't mean it's dead. -- nm - Krusty Jan 7, 05:04
Psst. Qale has this thing called The Twenty.... -- nm* - con_carne Jan 6, 20:12 2
- Yeah, but the current list is the Top 20 for 2021 and admittedly it has less rock than usual. Though that was a deliberate choice. - Qale Jan 6, 20:20 1
  - But I think a lot of stuff that isn't rock is rock-inspired anyway. If it weren't for this, we'd all still be singing like Doris Day and Al Jolson. -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 20:48
It's not that rock is dead, it's that radio is dead. And SirusXM will be next if they don't watch it. -- nm - Qale Jan 6, 20:05 4
- My truck has an XM thingy built in. Have never regularly used it. - Beryllium Jan 6, 20:23 1
  - (Yes, I call my compact SUV a truck. No, it is not a truck, it is just a slightly taller car.) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 6, 20:27
- I can believe that radio is dead. I haven't listed to normal radio in years. I listen to XM regularly though. -- nm - MDH Jan 6, 20:08 1
  - On occasion I'll listen to Octane and Alt Nation and they're doing a modest job at aping what a terrestrial rock station might play. But obviously... - Qale Jan 6, 20:17
