I feel global political oppression or global wars usually produce great music but Macklemore might be the peak.
Nothing against him, some of his songs are good, but I expected real rage inducing stuff with everything going on. Or is this just the state of music as a whole?
I was in highschool when they came on the scene. I’m well aware of Woodstock 99. Nothing you said counters my point. Looking back they didn’t belong in the same breath as the other bands you listed except puddle of mudd.
Tell me which one of these bands had the most influence. Also what does race have to do with it?
Records sold doesn’t = valuable music, culturally. Blink 182 was huge they didn’t make a lasting impact on music.
It’s ok if you like limp Bizkit but stop pretending like they made meaningful music. Next you’ll be comparing them to the Beatles.
