Is Rock Music Dead? Slash Thinks Rock N' Roll Has Become A Bastard Stepchild, What Do You Think?

Slash thinks rock n' roll has become a bastard stepchild, what do you think?

It is becoming harder and harder to ignore the facts, but as fan interest seems to dwindle, rock n' roll seems to be a thing of the past. Even though there are bands far and wide waving the banner of rock n' roll, are things becoming too safe and diluted? 

In a recent interview with the Manchester Evening News, Slash of Guns N' Roses fame stated "Rock and roll definitely needs a movement. It's become kind of the music industry's bothersome step child and what it needs is someone really committed to come and shake things up who doesn't give a shit if they make it." Is this a war cry for up and coming bands to realize their potential and to make rock n' roll dangerous again? We sure as hell hope so.
