It's just a fact that some eras have better music than others.

produced by Dave Latchaw. Song written by Scott Stambaugh Slide Guitar by Jon Vitas

Oh I don't need no radio
just to hear those shitty songs
You'd have to listen to like 20
before a good one comes along
All the hits now really suck
No matter what some douchebag said
He doesn't really know no better
He's only lived since rock was dead.

I was raised when the music was good
Yes, I was raised when the music was good
We watched those records spin whenever we could
oh that's because back then, the music was good

I'm so sick of dance routines
These songs all sound so much the same
I'm pretty sure they're made for morons
The state of music is a shame
Where are all the good songwriters
probably on some indie site
It's pretty clear that any good songs
are not about to see the light

I was raised when the music was good
Yeah I was raised when the music was good
There ain't one good song in your neighborhood
hey Music mattered then because it should

I was raised when the music was good
I was raised when the music was good
I'd change it back to those times if I could
to disagree with this is a big falsehood

What a stupid argument
how every era's just as fine
but listen here you twat you're full of crap
the past has left the present far behind.
You don't have no hooks, you have no soul
You'd rather play some video game yourself
In your lame tunes there's nothing there
so you leave your CDs on the shelf

I was raised when the music was good
I was raised when the music was good
With anyone half cool it's understood
Back then and unlike now, the music was good

I was raised when the music was good
I was raised when the music was good
You claim you wouldn't change it if you could
but if you weren't a lunkhead, hey you would

oh I was raised when the music was good
oh I was raised when the music was good
You'd go out to buy records whenever you could
Go back, hear what you missed you know you should
it'd do you good

I was raised when the music was good
I was raised when the music was good
With anyone half cool it's understood
oh c'mon lemme tell ya, the music was good

Song Comments

Prime Cuts
A real band here, great guitar work, bass and drums in the groove, power vocals, takes you back to when music really was good.

Great solos
I can't get the solo out of my head.

Witt's Picks
Fun bit of social commentary on this one.

The Best of Time's
Opinions are like assholes but this one is right on.

VISITOR CENTER
Many Indie artists at IMP look back to certain inspirational eras of music but that doesn't mean that IMP is stuck in the past. The idea is to acknowledge the legacy of old music but move forward with new ideas, technology and a new audience.
