then compare like with like. No point in comparing Nickelback or My Chemical Toilet is here? You want to here what the modern Led Zeps are doing? Then you've got to get into Lowrider, Nebula, Orange GOblin - stuf recorded by Billy Anderson.... that sot of music isnt "popular" {in the chart sense} any more. Have to go leftfield to hear it....

Look at Mark Lannegan, Isobel Campbell, SOME QOTSA {but NOt songs for he deaf which is too smashed}, stuff mixed by Alan Moulder, Little Fish and anything else from Tchad Blake..... had my eyes recently opened to modern recordings from Daniel Lanois... Listen to stuf on Rise Above records, In the Red, stuff recorded at Rancho de Luna

there are literally thousands of great sounding things out there.... just not in the market obsessed charts. What has changed is the popular charts are not dominatd by great sounding records - but there are plenty of great , and digital, mixed records {sic} every week..... but you're not gonna find it by listening to commercial radio or stuff mixed by the three letter boys - the JJPs, the TLA, and CLAs..... these guys dont MAKE those records.....
