I know this might sound "old", but most new music bores me, and most especially popular music. The current system of very few people writing their own music, and the musician's being studio hit writers is just boring and visionless. Even radio music isn't what it used to be. I know this is sort of an unfair generalization, but it seems to be a big dumb corporate music machine, more than ever. Poor kids.
