I didn't realise hairlessness was a bragging issha in the rap community... ;)
Rock's got a shelf-life like anything else. It's morphed into a bunch of other things. There's room for other music. You don't want to be like one of those indie dewds who thinks that all music is Indie + a Hyphen + Random Word. Just look at what there is now and embrace that, or yeah, get into origami. Music isn't everything. Though each country out there tends to have their slightly unique aesthetic and perspective on this music lark, so maybe do a bit of digging into something abroad if the U.S. and England are disappointing you.
ETA: By the way, obviously the reason why the sales have gone down isn't because of the quality of the music itself, so much as everyone and their mother being aware of alternative methods of getting that music.
