Music has survived for a long time.
The 20th century was a big turning point in music, with different genres popping up everywhere, the largest being rock music. It quickly evolved into many different subgenres, including metal, alternative, emo, nu-metal, and so many more. Rock's reign (of terror, as so many parents/priests/elders might say) was the Qin Shi Huangdi of music, except it was a good emperor. Why Qin Shi Huangdi? Simple. A couple years ago, one statement sank into the minds of every person on the planet, young or old, man or woman, SLGB or T.
Rock is dying.
It started the first time a hip-hop song got in the top 40 billboard chart, number 36 if memory serves. People started liking hip-hop more and more, up 'til today, where there are hundreds of thousands of rock bands, but only a select few were actually popular. Rap and pop, on the other hand, has tens of artists, but they have millions more followers than any rock band ever could.
But then, the cure for the disease came, in the form of - surprise, surprise - a rock band. But this one was different; it had a British-American, a Greek-Canadian, a Norwegian-Russian, a Chinese-Japanese, and later, a Danish. This had never been seen or heard of before. This helped them climb to the top. This combination would become world-famous. This would result in insanity. A dangerous insanity. A Calm Insanity.
So… this is pretty much just a modern band AU, except certain teams have certain artists that their songs are from. For example, JNPR's band, A Calm Insanity's most popular song is Feel Invincible, originally by Skillet, But their "meme song" is Down With The Sickness, originally by Disturbed. Also, their albums are named after the most predominant artist in it. For another example, CFVY's first album is named Asking Alexandria, after the very memorable british band. Or, SSSN's K-pop debut, BIGBANG(after the biggest boyband in the world), led into their "A-rock" sequel, Falling in Reverse.
So, what do you think? Leave a review, follow and favorite if you want to, constructive criticism is always welcome! Also, if you want to, you can leave suggestions of songs for me, rock, metal and alternative only please, or suggest a side-story you might enjoy, or whatever! Anyway, I hope you come with me on a journey of a slightly OOC Nora, faunus being the new african-americans, and rocking out. Lot's. And lot's. Of rocking out. Enjoy!
