See, I don't care that you have all those guys posing and pretending to be punks. I just think the music often sucks. If it doens't, I don't care how true to themselves they are, I just listen for good sound. The idea of music as creative is reasonably modern also. It used to be considered heretical in Western music to see yourself as a creator, you made music that came from God. Writing good music can, I think, be seperated from any kind of amazing creative inspiration, but rather can be seen as a craft in which the composer looks at how best to portray what they want to portray. Make music that is solid and beautiful in craftmanship. Or make a house that doesn't fall down.
