My country reminds me of The Rolling Stones. They started out very derivative but showing much promise (12X5, Aftermath). After some time and internal strife they came together for a period where they could do no wrong (Beggars Banquet to Exile on Main Street). Then the they got full of themselves and went way overboard and lost their way (Black and Blue or Dirty Work anyone? anyone?). Now they just continue on doing the same old stupid stuff without doing anything that takes real effort or has much worth (touring and multiple “live” albums). Eventually, they’ll just fade away, full of rust. By the way, I’m from Canada.
