Ever heard the works of Arjen A Lucassen's projects?
Listen to those and tell me metal is dying. Anyway, he uses a lot of computers in his.
Not that they replace real instruments though.

Rock and Metal aren't dying and "techno" as you put it isn't new. They are all huge genres, made more obvious by the recent massive boost in rock/metal festivals in Europe (don't know about USA). What makes me sad is that you can't appreciate other music for what it is. I have a few favourite bands etc, but I don't hate all dance music or hip hop, or blues, or jazz because of it. If you judge everything by one arbitrary designation, you re going to lead an inexperienced (and unfulfilled) life.
Someone should get an image going like the PC gaming dying since 1985 going here. Just stick a lot of ablum covers on it from bands over the last 30+years.
Things were better in the ol' days
Good grief, people have been complaining about the 'decline of X subject' for about...hmm...last time I checked...FOREVER!
No, it's not declining or dieing, and neither is the internet, or videogames, or the film industry, or democracy, or religion, or music, or 'proper' art, or common sense, or goodness in general

Anyway, rock and metal are alive and well today. I've seen amazing concerts this year alone in the US, Germany, Bulgaria, Romania and Spain, and each show has been packed with screaming fans, young and old. It may not be getting a lot of airplay, but if you need the radio to find your music, the radio isn't the problem...
This is a kid's thing? And I thought the Scandanavians couldn't gey better.Guitarmasterx7 said:

I am sick almost to the point of being bed bound of people like the OP.
People that only listen to metal/rock and claim it to be the only decent genre and they always have an air of superiority about them. I will say this once, all genres are great and it's very close-minded to stick to on genre and ignorantly claim that everything else sucks.
Also your rock and metal music most likely used computers to clean up the recording.

I really enjoy some electronic music forms, but Rock is iconic and won't just die.
Some of (in my opinion) the best Electronic acts would be nothing without Rock anyway. *cough*Pendulum*cough*.
