The same quality, substance and complexity with meaning is still there today, the only difference is that you have to dig much deeper today to find it. Thanks to internet and if you know what you`re looking for you can find it. Complex music with real substance was at its commercial height in the early 1970s with genres such as krautrock and prog rock but by the end of the decade it had died as a commercial music genre. Since then complexity has taken more of a back seat as far as the music public goes, but the quality bands are still there, as said you just have to look for them.
