Thread: Rant on mainstream music?

Okay so I am SICK of mainstream stuff. All it has is a catchy tune.
Yeah I do have a question. Is there any very non-mainstream music that has actual talent behind it you suggest? I'm open to pretty much anything.

And I'm sorry. I'm sure I just offended pretty much the whole world with my little spiel.

Check out Metallica's albums from 1983 (Kill Em' All), 1984 (Ride The Lightning), 1986 (Master of Puppets), 1988 (...And Justice For All), and 1991 (The Black Album)

If you would like something not so heavy, check out Muse. They hardly get airplay and is one of the most talented bands in the world.

The Bravery, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand, The Strokes, The Kooks, Bloc Party, Albert Hammond Jr., The Cribs, Spoon, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Reverend And The Makers

Mainstream music is weak. Try some metal. Gooood stuff.

artists I think have talent who are still making albums, not sure if you'd call them "mainstream" but they definately were at one time...

Beck
Black Crowes
Jack Johnson
Alice in Chains
M.Ward
Widespread Panic
White Stripes

Maybe I'll think of others when I have my ipod beside me...
