The "New" Shit Category and List

Okay, so the "new" shit list is of stuff that will probably survive, in some aesthetic way, up to through end of the decade I feel. I guess I would like to include people like Animal Collective and Black Dice, or some Japanese producers, or Questlove and Jim O'Rouke, or Mike Patton, but now that I think of it, (and this applies to Danielson and Sufjan Stevens also) I doubt they'll keep having the effect they've had up til now...Neptunes and Timbaland included, for the time being. NOW music for me, last era, was The Eclectic. White Rock purity would be left to the masses. Beck's slowed-down, NIN put out a hits comp,Cake's last album was boring. The 'Lips and Built to Spill, Modest Mouse (and the like) have all slowed-down and/or lushed out. And there are, and were, more.Then again it's always hard to call a change like that when you see it happening; the further we get from the nineties and this decade, the more opposition we'll have to define it by. For an update on The Canon, now (maybe), take note of the attitude at places like www.posteverything.com, where Music A.M. is being sold. At least in the literary world we have McSweeney's 'The Believer' on pop newstands, whereas online you can't help but check in with the pretty-yet-deplorable (is their problem a cuteness complex?) gravitational force of Pitchforkmedia.comAs many of these musicians have lushed their eclectiveness out, there are still a bunch of groups dealing with this "so eclectic that we're over being eclectic" thing, which for some reason has a lot to do with emotive, visceral performance; mixing the digital and the acoustic; and acknowledging space in arrangements, so as to expand what 'rock'/pop is. Or I guess, what pleasure is.
