No, the problem is you are too old. Modern rock, like all rock before it, was designed with teenagers in mind. Old foggies never like new rock music since it doesn't sound exactly like the stuff they listened too as a teenager.
If I'm too old, why do I listen to Pop Evil, Volbeat, Five Finger Death Punch, Saving Abel, Avenged Sevenfold, etc? All very modern....problem is, for each of them, there are a dozen bands with next to zero talent. I'm talking garbage like Three Days Grace, All That Remains, In This Moment, Breaking Benjamin, Trapt,....I could go on all day. Most of the new stuff I buy is from long established artists like Korn, Slash, Sixx AM, etc.
Rap is played out....NWA, Too Short, Public Enemy, The Beastie Boys, Eminem were all innovators...but there hasn't been an innovator in a long time Rap either needs a revolution, or it will fade into oblivion...and soon. Kids don't buy albums any more....they download singles.
Rock is dying a miserable, drawn out death. Even Motley Crue is hanging it up after 33 years.
