Hey guys,

I'm not sure whether this topic is supposed to be posted here, but I'm going to do it anyway.

Lately I've really been wondering a lot about the following question: is rock dead? I mean, is it 'not cool' to listen to rock music? Around here it's starting to be like that. Listening to rock music almost certainly means being rejected. How come? I'm not the one being rejected, but a lot of people are looked upon as freaks because they listen to rock music. I just read a post by someone (can't remember who) who said that in the 70s rock was dead. Is that true? I really hope so... would mean that the next decade could have a revival of rock.

Anyway, let me know what you think about this!

The good old 70's rock is certainly dead here and there aren't many metalheads either, so we are vastly outnumbered.
But together with my brothers I'll stand strong and die for metal ! laugh.gif tongue.gif
Everyone seems to be into postmodern-rock and emo is almost becoming fashion dry.gif
