Well I do. It makes me nauseous hearing the same old "classic" rock,
Radio Station Name

-
The only modern music I ever hear that I like is usually some kind of hillbilly/ folk stuff
-
Well, I'm stuck in the musical past and I admit it.
Give me some leadership. Give me a couple of modern rocker songs as good as say...Seger's Hollywood Nights or Creedence's Fortunate Son or Airplane's Somebody to Love or even William's Classical Gas.
I'm open minded; I'll give the a listen.
Those guys already made those songs. I can't help you.
-
No.
Well... You've told us already that you're really not a music fan. It's not for everyone, it's OK. I think a possible majority of people just think of music as organized pleasant noise. And what's better than familiar organized pleasant noise?
-
OK so... instead of sayings "there's no good new music", try saying "keeping up with current trends is hard, I'll just listen to my old Seger records".
-
So there's no modern, good, driving rock? Is that what you're saying?
-
I'm kind of with Toad here: I could listen to Black Sabbath and Deep Purple all day long. Metallica? does zero for me
-
If I read him correctly, he's saying there is nothing modern that is as good as the songs I mentioned.
-
It's a no win sitch. If it's different, it's too different. If it's similar, well then... "they're just trying to sound like...."
You like Sabbath? Try Dead Meadow.
But really what you're asking for is nostalgia and unfortunately getting nostalgia from a new artist will trip your "they're trying to sound like" spidy senses.

There's lots of great stuff.

There's lots of great stuff.
Fine. Give my 3 good rockin' modern songs to try. That's what I asked for.

WTF is a "good rockin" song?

It doesn't matter what music is played, they make money off it just the same, I'm pretty sure.
They do want to be accurate as they can with their algorithm.
I'd wager not. I've gotten advertisements about a band / song, and then somehow that song starts playing later?

That the algorithm. It thinks that you will like that kind of music, so you see that ad and get fed that music. No different than any other kind of ad you might see. They have a lot of data on what your habits and tastes are and they try to get stuff to you that you like so they can keep you listening and happy.
They do not more money for certain songs. They do pay artists a little bit more if a subscriber listens as opposed to a free account.
Payola is still illegal.
