Every modern "rock" song has a nearly identical chorus

And almost every one of them kicks in at 1:00 on the button.
1. Slow down the tempo.
2. Do some vocal harmony effect.
3. If your vocals aren't clean, they have to to be for the chrorus.
4. Same with the guitars. Turn down the gain and don't play power chords.

I am very proud to say that The Hellacopters are the most "Modern" band I listen to.

I'm not sure if this stuff, or the 20 billion bands that sound like that shitty band with the banjo or fun. Is worse
Also all the songs in the op are like 8 years old

not the current stuff sounds much different

modern = not classic rock
That's radio terminology, not mine.
I just went and checked the playlist for my local radio station and even checked some statistics for who gets the most spins.

You're local radio station plays juicer????
Our "hard rock" station pretty plays all the stuff in the op... Hence why I avoid the radio for the most part. Our jazz station is fucking awesome though

There was an computerized analysis done recently of all the pop songs over the last 60 years or so and it was determined that it's essentially all the same shit. Structure, chords, melodies, pretty much the same still today.

Just making a point. I like Gluecifer, but I never got into them the way I got into the 'copters though.
I actually dig TN more than Gluecifer too.

Are you suggesting Soilwork as another example of formulaic garbage?

They've been churning out the same entirely unremarkable bullshit pretty much since A Predator's Portrait. At least on APP it seemed they half-attempted to hide it.

It's Nickelback's fault, they have had great commercial success releasing the same songs on every album.
