See music creativity runs in spurts. Rock through the 60's and early 70's was great. In the 80's it went to a 3 chord, cookie cutter style of tight gay jeans, jean jackets and lots of lipstick and hairspray, now it's coming back around where the musicians are artists. Let me name some sucky bands of the past, Dokken, Ratt, Quiet Riot, Queensryche, Poison, Cheap Trick, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi...shall I continue. Each of these "bands" played 3 chords in 90% of their songs and had less artistic ability than Tiny Tim. The bands today are raw and innovative. My music timeline stops at Pink Floyd and picks back up at Pantera.
