Hey guys! I have been listening to many new Post Hardcore bands, as well as punk, pop, metal and I always find that there are less guitar solos in the songs nowadays than in the 80's for example. In the case of my band I only add solos to the songs when I feel that they add something extra to the song, not only because it's a must.

What are your thoughts about this??
