True. Except with me, I thought my generation was just as bad. It was the previous generation whose music I prefer.
but there was guff in beethovens age (daniel steibelt wrote some horrifically bad chamber music apparently, coukd shred a piano but was incapable of playing slow movements. there are accounts of beethoven destroying him in a piano duel, so much so he slunk out and never returned to paris). only the 'great stuff' generally stands the test of time, so its common to look at, say, the 60s (dylan, stones, beatles, etc) and assume it was ALL great - the garbage (and there was a ton) is just forgotten.
i love a lot of blues (magic sam, rory gallagher, albert king) amongst others.
love some more 'now' bands, too. AM by the arctic monkeys is getting slightly dated, but is an absolute pearler.
i also love to put on either of the spice girls albums sometimes, and 'hit 'em up styles' by blu cantrell is grear fun.
couldnt care less how people view my tastes though - i like whatever i like, and ill listen to any style and anyone if it gives me a buzz.
disagree that society and music today is lacking 'testicles' generally, whatever that means, but i guess thats neither here nor there.
sorry all for going OT - i find it difficult not to engage in music convos.
