My counter point is music is way easier to consume now. You can find no name bands everywhere. Durry is a great example of a band born out of the pandemic. Older group that is anti "normal" life. Seen them in concert amd have really hit a groove in their music. Indie bands have a way as before you heard them on some AM station.

It feels like less and less big artist are less vocal against what is happening. They will speak or make a post but their music is still the same ol same ol.
