i think whats most striking is that the sophistication of vocal content has fallen as if in line with the technical improvement in music production

Fuck melancholy. I'm listening to Tundra 4 and it's not melancholic.

True. I've heard the most boring, rote indie-rock ever, by kids as young as 15... with shimmering, beautifully recorded guitars and crisp percussion. I always hear a lot of so-called ''lo-fi'' which sounds downright polished and sanitary compared to music that was considered ''lush'' and well-produced back in the '70s or sometime.
And I sort of agree with the topic, though not really with the timeframe. Probably been a bit on the dark side for more than 15 years. ''Edginess''= accolades. Most of my absolute personal favorite music has a healthy dose of naivety and charm in it, though.
But there will always be a place in my heart for a dirge...

many techno indus albums were released more then 15 years ago, more dark and melancholic then now i think
popmusic has always his happy moments, as electronica has

the range of emotions expressed by art probably hasn't ever changed... what has is what constitutes these emotions, and how we signify them... and perhaps that's why there is something more disturbingly resonant for us to be found in the current set of melancholy... simply because it is more relevant to our current conceptions of the world...
