Yeah dude all those bands you listed are like 20 years old or older…

Well I guess seeing as you can’t name a band either we know the answer

Ok, name them. That’s what I’m asking. If there are new rock bands that formed in the past 10 years that have achieved high commercial success to the point of say the top 100 bands from the 90s to say 2005, what are their names?

The question, I guess in a roundabout way, meant to ask if it’s viable for record companies to invest in new rock bands. Seems as though the answer is no. There are big bands from 15-20 years ago that are on tour obviously doing well but it seems as though record companies do not want to invest in new rock bands as evidence by the fact that no one has been able to name a new rock band from the past 10 years that’s well known, doing well commercially, or charting.

Yeah but can you name one band that started in the past 10 years that’s as regarded as highly as the other bands I listed in the post? I’d imagine most if not all of those concerts selling out are from bands formed 15+ years ago. My thought was that record companies aren’t looking for rock bands anymore because they don’t sell like pop/rap do these days.
