It's the same for every decade/generation, honestly. Some acts (and genres) survive and continue on, others die but remain in people's memory, but dozens upon dozens of acts simply fade away and are almost completely forgotten, until you hear one of their old songs on an oldies weekend on the radio and go "Oh yeah, that's right, they were a thing."

It's also the root of nostalgia. We generally remember all the best bands or our favorite bands, and remember a few terrible bands just for the novelty of it, but for the most part we tend to forget about all the lame and mediocre bands that flooded the airwaves in any given era. So we only remember the good parts and overromanticize it, while comparing it directly to the ever-present mediocrity of today.

Every generation does it. Every generation will continue to do it. That's just life.

Yea kinda? I mean just simply it's my reason for "Whatever happened to Sum41"
