It's no disrespect to the Beach Boys or any other REAL band that was posted there, yet sometimes, the fashion was just a little bit too much off the hook...
I am otherwise a serious fan of the pre-douchebag era in the showbiz that really ended around 1995 with the raise of the all boy and all girls and all the other easy listening music with tight focus on kids / teens / after the lobotomy listeners.
It seems that someone want's to LEARN kids to WATCH and PERCEPT all their superficial douchebag shit to build the position to feed them and make them pay for it for years and ages (and they have always something more "advanced" in hand once someone would want to "develop" their taste).
It's almost like they have something for everyone now but it always have to be faceless dummies performing what's INEVITABLY GOING TO BE in vogue - douchebag rockers, douchebag rappers, douchebag punkers, douchebag solo artists etc.

You still get real bands these days, they are just rarer and you have to dig deeper.
