Pop isn't the only problem with the Music Industry today.

Well it's no question, pop sucks. But what about all of those other crappy music genres out there plaugeing the music industry. Look at new metal. It's just as un-origonal as pop is. I would listen to the radio and the only thing that these pathetic new-metal bands can sing about is how crappy their poor lives are. It's O.K. when you write just a song or two about that topic, but when you write album after album and not stray from it, it tends to get really old really quick. Look at these bands like Korn, Staind, Slipknot, Nickleback, Linkin Park, Papa Roach and about a million others that just recycle whats been done about a million times before. Thats why bands like Tool are so important. No two of their songs are very similar and no two of their albums are similar. So keep in mind that pop isn't the only thing wrong with the music industry today. New-metal, rap, and country music rank right up there with it.
