Bob Dylan Says Modern Music Is Worthless

Dylan, who released eight studio albums in the past two decades, returns with his first recording in five years, "Modern Times," next Tuesday.
Noting the music industry's complaints that illegal downloading means people are getting their music for free, he said, "Well, why not? It ain't worth nothing anyway."
"You listen to these modern records, they're atrocious, they have sound all over them," he added. "There's no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing, just like ... static."
Dylan said he does his best to fight technology, but it's a losing battle.
"Even these songs probably sounded ten times better in the studio when we recorded 'em. CDs are small. There's no stature to it."

OK, Bob really should listen to something other than what is played on MTV; either that or go out and make a decent record himself. Still, I do agree with him about the mainstream rock/pop sound - it's... not too loud... but too blended - yeah "There's no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing, just like ... static."
