Yeah, I think that's what is missing in today's generation of metal fans. In the past you had to really put in some work to discover great music. Attend shows, read zines, write to bands, tape trading or even lending albums, and taking a chance on certain albums, not knowing whether or not your money is going to be well spent or a complete bust. It was exciting to go to Newbury Comics when they catered to underground music. I would basically work just to drop my entire paycheck on albums. I'd order from some cool distros, and that's how I built my entire collection. I can't bring myself to part with any of my CD's, tapes, or records. I spent the money on them for a reason, I didn't purchase them so they could be resold. This was a time when bands seemed larger than life and the music that was being produced felt like it was meant to be brought into our world; that it wasn't just random. |
| _______________________________ [Feb 14,2013 11:41am - ÆRK ""] exactly. very well said mike. i will never know what it's like to buy an album blind or 'worship' a band ever again. it seems cheesy to say but the untouchable mysticism bands had back in the day is gone and it's not just nostalgia talking. music is cheaper than air now. |

| ______________________________ [Feb 14,2013 1:22pm - Yeti ""] fuck it, let the Fundies soil their undies. I feel sorry for them in a way, our old men elitist attitudes may be antagonistic, but they will never know what it was like to work after school at McDonald's for 3.50 an hour for the sole purpose of buying as many metal albums as were available at Record Town. A lot of the iconic "extreme" albums had just come out. You could buy albums all day and never find something you didn't love. now you have to wade neck deep through bullshit before finding something good. |
