Adapt or Die? do we have to accept the dumbing down of the metal scene?

Does the old school metal scene and music industry in general simply have to accept the dumbing down of the scene through the influx of content creating gimmick bands or is it possible to resist? As it's clear that within an ageing scene there needs to be new blood right? Yet the new bands who uphold the old school values and worship the riff! are fewer and further between and certainly and sadly not the biggest bands in the field anymore...not even close. This, why does summer touring not work in Europe and a brief moment of positivity near the end about how we might see a small but aggressive luddite-esque resistance to AI art.....if so make me the Mayor in this new principality....oh and why Irish people don't belong at the beach. the show is looking for sponsors....if you think this is something you are interested in, get in touchAlan.averill@gmail.comfollow menemtheanga_primordialprimordial_officialon the gramsupport the show over at :https://patreon.com/AlanAverillPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialor email alan@dragon-productions.comPrimordial cds/lps available fromhttps://www.metalblade.com/primordial/my other musical projectsdeath metalVERMINOUS SERPENThttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTAdoomDREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXAgothAPRILMENhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.
