Of course you love the music. You grew up with it and it was scientifically designed to hook your subconscious using centuries-old cadences, metronome-perfect timing and binaural drones. My point is that *mainstream music* is controlled and heavily regulated. And there are very few exceptions where a musician achieved fame to the point of radio play via an actual grassroots following.
In that sense, classic rock is similar to modern pop music (especially the oversexualized lyrics). Music played with real instruments is obviously better. But if we were to only listen to radio for our music today, it would be very similar to the monoculture of music that was the 60s and 70s. Then basically all of them started experimenting with *disco* and using synthesizers. Fans hate to remember the dark, depressing, disco era that transitioned their beloved "classic rock" (pop) music into the slop it is today.
