Yeah I totally agree, I'm glad that I'm living in the USA now, the music scene is at least more varied over here, in England it's either chart music, or korn klones
I love how they play Ozzy and Sabbath on popular radio in the states, at least you get the classic rock which you dont even get in the UK
All I'm saying is that in terms of originality, I feel that the heavier genres are suffering from a lack of creativity, the music I write is often in direct opposition to what is being released, because that stuff isnt what I want to hear, I just wish more bands would try new ideas, and not realise that it's easy to sound popular, it's hard to sound original
