Why is '86 the cut-off? Arbitrary? I grew up with 50's, 60's & 70's music and it was grand. But I would never claim that good music no longer exists. Perhaps not as prolific as back then? Then again tastes have changed between generations as well. I hate rap and think it awful music but I wouldn't deny that it brings as immense joy to those who enjoy it as 'my' music does for me. In the end that's all that really counts. (I might deny someone playing rap in my presence, though, LOL.) There's plenty of new music that is as good as anything I've heard from back in my day. If I had to I could post endless examples. My 30 y.o. kid was here with me in Thailand on and off for about year and a half. He greatly appreciates a lot of the music that I grew up with but it wasn't enough for him. He wanted to hear new tunes as well. Rightfully so. So for a year + we scoured YT looking for 'great' music. I was amazed at how much we found. Here's a single example, Empty, by Ray LaMontagne recorded in 2006, 20 years past the 'good' music expiry date. Not only is it a beautiful song but the lyrics are as good as any that came from previous eras. Take the wise advice from the old(est) sage we have on TV (he moonlights as a deviant as well) . . . keep tuned to this topic and you might be surprised... Peace, man, and invite me over sometime to listen to some tunes on your most excellent audio system (a bit green with envy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippaporn Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Absolutely great new music (in my ears). Timbre Timbre's Demon's Host recorded in 2009 from the Timbre Timbre CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 A bit harder rock? The excellent psychedelic rock band out of Austin, Texas, The Black Angels, on Young Men Dead from their 2006 Passover release. A great song for testing your speakers. Can they handle it?

Tippaporn Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Russian Moscow based post punk band Manicure off their eponymous 2009 debut. The lyrics are limited (hey, they're Russian) but this song has a killer riff. I could blow a pair of speakers with this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I have two pair of Series IV's and wouldn't part with them, like my 1965 GTO, it's in storage, my brother is waiting for me to die so he can drive it. BTW Bose re-coned all 8 drivers in each speaker for free, 22 years old and they re-coned them for me, even sent me proper shipping boxes to Fedex them to the BOSE factory in Framingham, MA. all I had to do was pay shipping - now you can;'t get a warranty like that anywhere these days.
