“Folk-rock legend Bob Dylan feels modern records sound "atrocious," as they lack good lyrics and music.
Condemning modern music as worthless, Dylan says there hasn't been a single good record in the last two decades.
“I don’t know anybody who’s made a record that sounds decent in the past 20 years," the Sun quoted the 65 year old rocker, as saying.
“You listen to these modern records, they're atrocious, they have sound all over them. There’s no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing, just like . . . static,” he added.”

Do you argee?

Ofcourse. The introduction of modern synthesizers, melody and harmony correction software, pitch correction software - all these things are designed to give more people with no talent the opportunity to make it big in show business.

Damn, more people taking what he said out of context. Wether of not modern music sucks is not the point, although it mostly does. What he was referring to is the mastering process on CDs now. Everything is overcompressed, no dynamics, no nuances.

He is one of the most amazing singer/songwriters/poets of the past century. Go suck an egg.
