    Lies, I still listen to dirtbag punk music like FIDLAR, the Mean Jeans, and Lambrini Girls.

    Similarly, math noise rock seems to be alive and well with those weird polka-dotted fellows Angine de Poitrine and electronic noise rock groups like Black Dresses.

    Anamanaguchi was also back with a rock soundtrack for the new Scott Pilgrim games, more good rock tracks that aren’t strictly metal.

      You’re right in that this person is out of the loop, but they’re right that the mainstream has moved past hard rock for the same social signifiers they used hard rock for. It you want angst and rebellion, putting on an oldies band like rolling stone won’t have the same impact that it did back then.
