Reading this, I instantly get a visual of really bitter old curmudgeons with extremely narrow and/or ****ty taste in music who make sweeping assumptions about everything that came out after 1990.

Actually, they were pretty open to music that came out in the 90s as well... so long as it sounded like it could have been written in the 70s.

What's incomprehensible about it?

yes, it's watered-down reggae for the rockists, yes, there are tons other better reggae artists

but how exactly is his music "incomprehensible"?

it's just reggae geared towards rock fans

I saw a Behind the Music it was only in the studio that producer add to the original tapes to gear it for a Rock audience. If you don't like his music that one thing but I think that is unfair to dismiss him and susequently his band because he had some jammin musicians he played with.

i'm not saying that's a bad thing

i'm merely saying there are many other reggae artists i'd rather put on than Marley

I don't think you're going to find many people here or on any general music forum who'll disagree with most of that. Maybe Marley but that's it.

As for a drum roll for Matchbox 20 hahahaha read this

The thing is that I hate a lot of pop. The Beatles? Eh, they're OK I guess, but I find them another overrated band and outdated (yes I went there). At least I can respect them for laying the roots for rock music, and granted, they have a couple good songs, but then there's the matter of ABBA and the Bee Gees. ABBA is sickeningly sweet and happy and they seemed to have their heads in the clouds all the time, and I just don't like that kind of extremely happy feelgood music. I can be very short about the Bee Gees; they have this disco feel in some of their songs (prime example is Stayin' Alive) and I hate disco.

that's only their 70s output

the 60s were pop-rock and some psychedelic pop

My Morning Jacket. Not sure if anyone on MB likes them, or even knows about them, but around Louisville they are THE BEST BAND EVAR to many people. Personally, I think that they are a band that plays super boring, super safe, super unoriginal indie rock. They are okay, but they're really not great. Or good, even. Way, way, way overrated.
