    Seems like the big trend these days is out of tune lead singers....when the fuck did this become the standard?

          When music executives realized that stupid kids would buy any bullshit they put on MTV. Why give real musicians record deals? Just create a "band" out of a bunch of flunkies who will do and say whatever the execs tell them to.

                    I have noticed that most of the singers that make it to the top these days have a very limited range. No doubt there are some bands with singers with talented vocals out there but the limited range style seems to be more popular at the moment. I am a punk fan so I don't mind a bit of 'out of tune on purpose' singing but on the other hand when you listen back to voices like Freddie Mercury you realise how talented he was as a vocalist.

                      this isn't "new" but the singer of Steelheart put ALL new "rock" singers to shame.

                                              I guess I should have been more clear....

                                              I know there are TONS of kickass new groups coming out, but I am talking more of the shit you hear on the radio and mtv....all the same shit with a different (sometimes same) package

                                                  My take on this is to not listen to the fucking radio if you want to hear good music

                                                        well, we have a great station here called 99x...anyone that has been to atlanta knows it is a great station, so we listen...but they can't help but throw in the obligatory new rock song every now and then, and I can nevfer tell the artists apart

                                                        here is 99x's recent playlist though, they play a little of everything:
