You could argue that current popular music is degenerate and we should turn back the time on thematic content and then retrace recent developments in a different way

2016-12-29 17:09:21 UTC  

It's not about reenactment, but about correcting a cultural mistake

2016-12-29 17:09:34 UTC  

And then going forward again

2016-12-29 17:09:48 UTC  

Current popular music IMO, is nothing but a stimulans. It's in world of music, what coffee is in world of drinks -cheap way to swiftly stimulate your senses

2016-12-29 17:10:05 UTC  

Most of it has degenerate lyrical content too

Degeneracy in this sense to be understood in it's most primordial meaning - weakness

2016-12-29 17:10:41 UTC  

There seems to be a feedback loop here, a culture that worsens the art and music, which in turn influences (the more easily influenced members of) the culture.

You need to fix the two simultaneously.

2016-12-29 17:10:52 UTC  

One interesting turn of events is the dramatical fall of music from profitability

2016-12-29 17:11:09 UTC  

And how musical producers, facing the prospect of being completely unable to make a living

2016-12-29 17:11:25 UTC  

Started making this "underground",or "indie" music, or as i like to call it, "music"

2016-12-29 17:11:46 UTC  

Most notable genres so far to me are ambient, dark ambient, industrial etc

2016-12-29 17:11:58 UTC  

There's plenty others, but i haven't really picked up

2016-12-29 17:12:11 UTC  

One striking difference is complete absence of lyrical content

2016-12-29 17:12:20 UTC  

Big words, designed to "inform" public

2016-12-29 17:12:47 UTC  

no more "anti-war" songs

2016-12-29 17:12:56 UTC  

The reason culture sucks is because its apart of the agenda to dumb us down and control us

2016-12-29 17:12:59 UTC  

No more lyricism of social grandeur such as The Queens and such

2016-12-29 17:13:06 UTC  

Have no pride in your country

2016-12-29 17:13:08 UTC  

Feel dumb

2016-12-29 17:13:08 UTC  

No more rock bands and glam bands to inform us in opinions

2016-12-29 17:13:13 UTC  

No culture whatsoever

2016-12-29 17:13:50 UTC  

In Russia, culture is everything, history is everything, literature and art and music is everything

2016-12-29 17:13:59 UTC  

I dont care for art but I love history

2016-12-29 17:14:39 UTC  

So yeah the reason its all Kim Kartrashian and shitty music and constant garbage is just all part of the agenda to dumb us down and make us weak.

2016-12-29 17:14:49 UTC  

Have no mond

2016-12-29 17:14:52 UTC  

Mind*

2016-12-29 17:14:53 UTC  

trance, pop etc, it's just booze music

2016-12-29 17:15:12 UTC  

yeah sure it has its purpose but it's designed to be forgotten about

2016-12-29 17:15:41 UTC  

I like pop/dance music I listen to music most of my day honestly

2016-12-29 17:15:43 UTC  

Another purpose of reenactment is reestablishing continuity with past

2016-12-29 17:16:01 UTC  

Like say burzum

2016-12-29 17:16:29 UTC  

Varg's story is typical of what I'm talking about

2016-12-29 17:16:39 UTC  

Varg simply realized the vanity of black metal

the vanity of "rebellion", which is certainly because he grew older
