Chapter
Playlists replace record-store clerks; guitar albums still reach headphones via Bandcamp, Spotify, and festival bills. Tame Impala builds solo psych with drum machines and layered guitars. Fontaines D.C. show post-punk cadence still carries city reportage. Bands after Radiohead inherit permission to mutate form without quitting guitars. Modern rock here is not nostalgia cosplay. It tracks how the format adapts to streaming economics while drums and riffs still lead the mix.
Sound: Bedroom psych production, festival PA scale, post-punk reportage vocals
