I had assumed that it was common knowledge that modern mainstream rock has gone down the crapper in terms of general standards. We don't need to look much further beyond the sort of stuff that makes the top 20 in order to verify this as the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

So no, it's not just you. As a fan of rock music, I fully concur with your sentiments.

No comment on Metal, though. I'm not too sure what to think about modern metal. There's too much variety to make any very sweeping statements, unlike in the case of mainstream rock.
