The problem with today’s art, be it music, movies, etc.
is that it is template-based, play-it-safe, zero-risk, garbage. There are good and even excellent songs being written but they are buried and the mainstream stuff is painfully predictable and boring.
The good stuff was always unique. I’m afraid those days will never come back.
The artists who would otherwise have spent hours every day on the guitar are now just playing fortnight. The writers who would have written the classics are preoccupied with there next twitter post. Too many other options to pursue. Wake me up when something original comes out again. R.I.P. Peart.
