British guitar music is dead, it is all about pop, dance and grime now. It isn't fair. I just like working class lads playing guitars and singing about girls, drinking, drugs and how they feel about stuff but it isn't popular anymore.
'Popular' bands can barely get a few million views on youtube meanwhile grime videos are all getting tens of millions of views rapping about stabbing people and 'the feds' (uk doesn't have a federal government) things are changing and I hate it.
For example this is a 'big' band right now and they can barely get 3 million views.
>are all getting tens of millions of views rapping about stabbing people and 'the feds' (uk doesn't have a federal government) So they steal lines from American ghetto shit?
They basically just larp as Americans but with thick Jafrican accents. Call each other 'niggaz' call their estates 'tha ghetto' the police are 'da feds' they also include native stupid lingo like 'bruv' 'mandem' etc. It just doesn't appeal to me at all.
I feel the same way. Amy MacDonald is a singer songwriter I discovered recently and "This is The Life" from 9 years ago has 69 million views: youtube.com/watch?v=iRYvuS9OxdA
But her 2017 album "Under Stars" has been stripped down. "Down by The Water" only has 400k views: youtube.com/watch?v=eh6mrl8fpjA

Here's a Ted Talk on how lyrics keep getting more and more repetitive but so is the musical accompaniment: youtube.com/watch?v=_tjFwcmHy5M

I agree. nigger music is nearly always so low IQ. I wish guitar music was popular again.

True zoomers wouldn't remember it, they were born after 9/11 and wouldn't be able to remember much until the late 2000's

Kek, I used to watch Channel U at that time with my mates when I was like 15. The videos were all so cheap but they wanted to show off like the Americans. I remember them holding up opened champagne bottles and having very sub par girls dancing next to them, clearly they had just asked their Sister's friends to do it.It was awful music then and it is awful music now. I just don't get the appeal. How do you as an Irish person relate to a black Londoner bragging about how expensive his shoes are and how he will murder someone because he is so tough.
It all began the moment Oasis fell apart. the only way to bring the British music back to where it used to be is to bring Oasis back together. Have Liam and Noel make up and reunite if you are really concerned about your cunts music

Are Oasis popular in Korea? They are the prime exaple of the music I love. Working class lads singing about drinking, drugs, girls and how they feel. The kind of music that makes me think of walking past terrace houses, pubs and cramming into a taxi with the lads to go the city centre on a night out.
