I was shouting it. It is dead. Everything has it's life-span. There are still bands full of weekend warriors who get together to play dixieland jazz, but it is pure nostalgia and not a living, breathing genre.
The same goes for barbershop, rockabilly, "punk", big band swing, etc. They are all dead, and only a faint memory continues to exist. Soon what we all call rock n roll will be the same.
the sounds made by electric guitars and drums have been bombarding our collective ears since the 1950's, well over 60 years now.
I love rock and noisy rock the most, but I can see the writing on the wall.
I think Nirvana was the last dying gasp at rock n roll relevancy, and it was essentially a funeral dirge....
The music still lives, but the rock n roll culture, if there ever was one, is dead.
