I think though because the major labels suck so hard, that discerning listeners have to kind of work hard and listen to a lot of music to find the gems that were once a lot easier to find. And I will say that the overall quality of the music I listen to is higher than it's ever been.

I get so much music and I just can't get enough, but I'm not always HEARING it like I should. It's awesome though when an album just hits me months/years after I first heard it, though.

But then so was Paranoid Android, and Exit Music and well... you are right - fantastic album. Karma Police from OK Computer was a song that I could just play over and over again.

I thought it was the best rock album I'd heard in years. Of course, I got a lukewarm reaction from most people...no one wants to admit they still listen to Green Day...or maybe that they ever did. LOL!! But I was vindicated when they won the Grammy's last year. :-) -Darin http://trippyd66.blogspot.com/ I have to say, I listened to American Idiot and immediately started telling people to check it out.

I listened to it...one time. Being a usual Green Day fan, I was surprised. But, the CD did nothing for me. All of sudden, in the last two months, I've been craving it. Although I've come to appreciate the record, I wonder, is this mainstream making its move on me? I care to think not! That would wound my ego too greatly. The CD is good. No doubt. Check out Neutral Milk Hotel, In the Aeroplane over the Sea. http://neutralmilkhotel.net/recordings.html It'll change your life. In a way like Radiohead.
