RE: Bands you've tried hard to get into but can't

For me, it's around 95% of all new rock music being made today and for the last 20 or so years. There were a few excellent new bands in the '90s, but since then I can't name a single one that I dig. Thanks to 2 of my grandsons who have lived with me for most of their young lives, I am exposed to new rock music at my home by them. There is nothing in the new rock music coming out today that I can say I like, no matter how hard I try to get into it or hear it. It just doesn't get to me in the way the Stones still do, or how the Beatles and other bands used to do.

As far as old bands from the '60s thru the '80s, I agree with the bit about life being too short to listen over and over to music one can't get into. KISS would be a great example. I had a best friend in the '70s who loved them, so I was forced, to a point, to listen to their music. To my ears there isn't a more phony sounding band, their music is flat out stale and sounds like a bunch of kids who haven't yet learned how to play their instruments correctly yet. I watched a bit of a concert of theirs from the early '00s just last week and nothing has changed with them after all of these years. Yet look at how many fans they got, they are as loved as any band can be loved. I'm happy for them and I'm happy for the new rock bands who make it, but I'm not gonna listen to any of them since they aren't my cup of tea and never will be.
