| Post subject: | Albums from modern bands and the future's perception. |
Sifting through my collection of As I lay dying and older melodic death metal albums from my younger days prompted a question, while those albums are indeed worthless other than for nostalgic yuks- what value in terms of monetary yieldings will today's music be valued at fifty years from now? When the metal scene looks back on your respective picks- what will they think of our recording techniques, our scene, and the bands that influenced them. Is this a pertinent question while we judge these acts in our reviews and articles, or will we have to wait and see before we make any judgement calls? |

It's definitely nothing one can prophecize. There are still a lot records that were made 15-20 years ago and even much longer than that that today are overlooked and ignored by the typical metal fan. Although those interested in the history of music will find a lot to love from the 15th century until today. |

Sez the one with the almost-nine-posts-a-day post average. Not that any of them are of any substance.

As for the question at hand, it's too hard to say. But if a piece of art is genuinely good, it is usually timeless. |

I think today's metal scene will be mostly forgotten 50 years from now. |

And indie rock will be remembered, Noodz? I think a lot of metal will be remembered. In black metal alone, people will remember the notoriety...and quality of the Norwegian period and can trace all the wide permutations of the genre from there. |

I wouldn't like to predict it. Either this will all be long-forgotten, or it'll be the roots of a musical empire that will last a thousand years. If I had to bet, I'd say it'll be exactly the same - we'll still be moaning about the same sort of thing. |

I think most of the music that's been released recently will be forgotten in 5 years. Maybe 2. |

To me it seems like 50 years is a long time and when I think about the music from the the 50s that's remembered, it's either because it's considered high art now (jazz) or it's the root of a huge part of popular music (early rock and roll). I don't really see metal falling into either of those two categories. And musicians have been acting like psychotic douchebags for eons so I don't think black metal's shenanigans are particularly special. My grasp of what's popular is admittedly quite poor, but that's how I see it. More generally, people will probably associate nowadays music with auto-tune, sorta like how the 80s have synths and drum machines. |
