Foo Fighters are a basic bitch band - perfect for our times, and definitely perfect for Pat.
Musical artistry is dead. Nobody does deep dives anymore, and the concept of the "album" is dead. All anyone wants is 4 or 5 catchy singles, and then you become a "brand" rather than a "band", and you're set.
It's even retroactively affected vintage bands. The Beatles and The Stones have all ready been mentioned, but another good example is Queen. They were around for 20 years, had a variety of styles, but today they're just "Bohemian Rhapsody" (Pat's jukebox story - again, basic bitch), "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions", which for whatever reasons are now played as one song.
Pat's tastes are a testament to the dumbing down of our culture.
