I’ve noticed that the majority of bands I’ve loved since I was younger have entirely abandoned their old style for music that feels far more bland and uninteresting. It breaks my heart to no end when a band I’ve loved releases a new album and by halfway through you’re done with it.
Lately this has been happening too often to me. Anyone else notice this with their music selection of choice?
I remember when The Black Eyed Peas came out with their first album and I was excited like “Oh wow, these guys are good hip hop like Arrested Development”, and then they added Fergie and proceeded to poop out some of the most universally reviled music of all times. I’d be ashamed even to have that first album in my collection anymore, but it was actually pretty decent.
Trip-hop and hip-hop aren’t really the same thing…
