Seinfeld Is Unfunny/Music: Difference between revisions

* [[At the Gates]]'s riffing style has been [[Follow the Leader|copied]] so much that AtG's album ''Slaughter of the Soul'' might seem predictable to a first time listener who's already acquainted with the over 9000 knockoffs.

* [[Barbra Streisand]], [[Cher]], [[Madonna]], ...three leading ladies of the music industry, almost all possessing huge gay followings, who also spent a fair bit of time doing things in the movie biz. Hard to believe they're some of the most innovative girls around, considering (at least in Madonna's case) every blonde pop singer from the nineties onward is compared to them or called their Successor.

** The Beatles do, for the most part, avert this trope, though - while people may not always recognize today how groundbreaking they are, they continue to be one of the most popular and beloved bands of all time, and their albums continue to sell out nearly a half-century after they were originally released. And every generation of teenagers seems to re-discover The Beatles (see there was the popularity of ''[[Across the Universe (Film)|Across the Universe]]'' and the Beatles edition of ''[[Rock Band]]''). And it's rare to find anyone who actually denies The Beatles' influence. Even a lot of the [[Hype Backlash]] will still admit The Beatles were innovative, just that they weren't the only ones pioneering those things and don't like how they're often discussed as though they were.

* [[The Beach Boys]]' "Pet Sounds" used groundbreaking techniques that are so common now listeners unfamiliar with their history might not recognize how revolutionary the album is.
