Well. I think you should really draw a distinction between American and British rock. While I think a lot of British Rock could have made it on the American Charts based on the quality of the music alone most of the bands didn't want to break big in America. Not so much because they didn't like America but because they really liked their country's music which they felt was being tainted and debased by globalist forces. It really wasn't until Tony Blair co-opted Brit-Pop that the underground in Britain really broke in America. I honestly think Jarvis Crocker is based as fuck for a Brit. I can't name a Pulp song I hate. The song "Help the Aged" is hilarious. All that being said I like my fried chicken trailer park music like Run Fat Boy Run by Nine Pound Hammer or Monster Magnet a little more than the Brit stuff as underrated as it was. I think being proud of your country's music. Art music or pop music is a good thing. You can't play Stone Roses at a monster truck rally though and get them same reaction. lol
The music industry became a Cabal money-laundering facility in the 90s; that's why shit bands everywhere were suddenly triple-platinum with obviously phony numbers, and formerly-independent radio-stations were bought up & merged into networks that played the shit and ignored the promising new talent.
100% That happened in Britain and America both for sure. I think it happened in Britain faster than here. Though it honestly happened in both countries simultaneously. Almost like clockwork. It's like the people that did it KNEW free speech is best practiced in rock n roll and sought to get rid of it from mainstream radio. Even the college stations that carried the music though the 80's were neutered.
Britain is a test-bed for what they'll later try to get away with in the US.
In terms of current events, music or both?
