there's really not a lot of competition out there. I don't care for the Black Keys, I don't dislike them but I won't go out of my way for them, same goes for Muse but it doesn't bother me that they're popular like a lot of other stuff does.

Dave Grohl and Jack White carry the flag pretty well, though I'm still kind of annoyed at Dave Grohl at the Grammy's slagging off digital music, only to play with Deadmau5, but I digress. Thank God for the internet because mainstream rock is really hurting right now.

I remember Gerrard from My Chemical Romance saying the same thing about digital music, only to also end up collaberating with Deadmau5

How is it hypocritical if he wasn't talking about electronic music in the first place? I don't remember him using T-Pain levels of auto-tune during it.

Also I'm pretty sure he clarified on either his Twitter or during an interview that he likes a lot of electronic music and that he's a big fan of Deadmau5 and Skrillex.

Fair point, a lot of it is likely my negative disposition on electronic music for the most part that bolsters my disappointment in the move. I put that Deadmau5/Skrillex stuff in the T-Pain category but I'm not opposed to the notion that it could be my ignorance there.
