My local rock station started playing straight-up modern pop hits a couple years ago. Could have at least left it at pop rock, there’s no shortage of that …
Though they never pretended to be brutal, they were always about classic rock and 90s pop rock. AFAIK they didn’t even play Black Sabbath.
If it’s anything like I hear they just play Enter Sandman and Nothing Else Matters and lump it in with Ozzy’s Crazy Train and consider that their hard core “classic rock”
That’s depressing. My local station is still rockin’ hard with “A Little Bit Off” by FFDP on repeat, with some Metallica and Black Sabbath sprinkled in. They do the cringy “we do things the other stations won’t” innuendos, but they don’t gave a morning show and don’t play ads on my drive home (except for their own station), so I’m happy.

All your favorite classic rock hits from Nirvana to Metallica!
If only, Metallica is way too hard for them. Their main thing is 70s rock, minus Black Sabbath and punk.
Nirvana and Metallica are considered “oldies” now, and that makes me feel really old.

Oh yeah, I forgot that Metallica had a buttrock phase …
Sadly, they are probably more known for that shit. I don’t think I have liked any Metallica songs since the infamous “black album” came out.

Gross.
Yeah, I hear it 1-2x/day, and I only listen for about an hour. That’s a pretty high hit-rate when there are so many great classics.
But at least they’re still playing rock instead of throwing in random pop stuff.
