Does anyone here like bands like Lifehouse, We The Kings, Coldplay, etc? Because I like a lot of it.
Ahh yess. So much ANGST^ Animal I Have Become is a pretty good song
Yes this is the main difference I noticed between 2000s and 2010s music in the mainstream. 2010 music was very hungover sounding. Billie Eilish as one example.The 2000s had so many awesome adrenaline/heavy songs. Doesn't seem as common these days, at least not in the mainstream.
early 2000s, not late 2000s
2000s basically perfected heavy music with poppier aspecct/mainstream appeal. Perhaps no song demonstrates that better than this one. It's polished chaos.
