Not every, no. But the majority, yes. Context is crucial in music, wankery just for the sake of it isnt good, it never has been and never will be. Music should take you on a journey, I want to sit back and feel the music, not have to listen with the intention of getting into a debate. It is only made worse by a large number of music fans as well, who in the hunt for the most obscure music have stopped feeling the music, and just consume as much music as possible without ever really stopping to take it in, just so that they can stay one step ahead of the rest of the world!

And maybe it is a generalisation, or maybe it is a bang on analysis of the problems in rock music these days
