If there's no melody or harmony, I wanna punch someone...

Oh, but there really is so much melody and harmony, there really, really is.

try 'Creep' by Radiohead;

Two great songs. I never ignore modern music. I love the radio and am constantly turning the dial to EVERY station when I am in the car. There are plenty of great new songs to enjoy. I'd hate to be stuck in the past musically.

Ha, modern music. To think these are more than twenty years old.
I used to love Pearl Jam (and Nirvana, Smashing Pumkins etc) as a teenager and back then they used to be super-cool grungers with their long hair, cut-off jeans and lumber jack shirts. You see them today and they're still great but they're grown-up respectable parents with sensible haircuts and tidy clothes.

also Soundgarden and STP (however much hipsters of the time were apparently spitting on STP but i loved their songs and they were great in concert).

many of those from the 90s who survived are ageing nicely and figured out how to still stay relevant and making new music. catching Chris Cornell when he does solo acoustic tours is a special treat - his shows make it very clear why live shows are worth it as opposed to just listening to the recordings, and of course his is still one of the best voices in rock!
