Description: "Led Zeppelin, the Doors, Fleetwood Mac, Rush, Pink Floyd, Peter Frampton, the Beatles, the Who, Elton John (but only the good stuff), the Rolling Stones - these are the names that classic rock worships. But where are the values for which these artists fought? Where is the spirit that they once epitomized? Persuasive, incisive, and drawing blood with every keystroke, I Hate New Music is one man's crusade against everything that isn't what rock ought to be." "Shamelessly retrospective and defiantly reactionary, I Hate New Music examines the sacred cows of the past thirty years - from U2 to the White Stripes - and then slaughters them for their sins against our souls."--Jacket.
