It has recently occurred to me that music is like a carrier bag.

Whilst pop music is disposable, I find that Rock and Metal are more enduring. Pop songs are magnificent for a substantial amount of time, then become monotonous; whereas a good Rock song remains exquisite for eternity. When a catchy pop song is new, it is at its peak. Within the first couple of weeks of its release, its radio plays are at its highest, when a DJ plays it at a club or bar, it makes you want to dance, but then its enjoyability decreases at a Tsunami pace. Rock and Metal songs are like a fine wine; they become anthems and amplify.

Take 'Kill 'em All' for example, 28 years after its release, the album is considered a classic, an essential to any substantial music collection. Every track from the album is applauded and acclaimed every time it is played or performed, manifesting its superiority.

Pop music is an irreconcilable genre in comparison; Pop music of the same era is not as eminent or prestigious. With the exception of an insufficient few that are notable by those who are either still living in the former decade or wish they were, Pop songs do not stand the test of time like Rock songs do.

I do not feel antipathy towards Pop music, in fact I immensley enjoy it, but only until its sell by date. I can't get enough of 'Katy Perry - E.T.' today, but I comprehend that next month, I will find it as invigorating as a striptease by Donald Trump. Therefore, pop music is the audio eqivelent of a plastic bag, whilst Rock music is a bag for life.
