really? for me, i've always found a strong connection between political ideals and good music...smoth wrote:I hate political crap in songs.
a form of music is created by "hardcores" who are generally the downtrodden and overlooked of society... then the music industry latches on to the quality and manufactures their own bands, which then proceed to dilute and pollute the music to the point where it is acceptable by parents, educators, and society as a whole...
sex pistols + 30 years = blink 182
run DMC + 30 years = lil john
Black Sabbath + 30 years = nickelback
but maybe im not begrudging the same thing; certainly politics isn't prevalent in all "new" music (black sabbath is a good example, the songs weren't politically charged, it was more the standing and class of the musicians that took part to give it its raw edge... so politically affected, rather than motivated)
if GRTS was played by a billion people for 30 years, and then afterwards somebody decided to either remake it or make a game based on it, would it be as good? i say no.
