WBIMDJ said:Take KSJO Channel 92.3 off my list. Yet another great station Clear Channel has screwed up, they have now recently tweaked their playlist (for the bad, of course). Gone is the good alternative music they were playing before from new and upcoming acts like Hockey, We Are Scientists, Miike Snow, The Gaslight anthem etc. As well as great older classic modern rock from the 80's and 90's, including deeper songs like Love and Rockets "All In My Mind", The Clash's "Police On My Back", that were in rotation, among others. Added instead now are the crappy active rock artists from the corporate cookie cutter playlist including Shinedown, Seether, Evanescence (puke). As well as your hourly dose of the overplayed Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stone Temple Pilots, Linkin Park tracks we've all heard 10,000 times. With that, the station is bland as hell now. In other words, it sounds like every other crappy station CC runs. I remember when 92.3 first launched and I heard how good it was I knew it was only a matter of time before they ruined it.
Clear Channel sucks!!!
This same thing happened at 103.9 in Phoenix at the beginning of 2010. Prior to the move, hearing Iggy Pop "Passenger" on a Tuesday at 2PM or Siouxie & The Banshees or new music such as Hockey etc. was great. Unlike 94.9/San Diego, they didn't give the true alternative sound enough time to take hold. Enter the cookie cutter stuff you mention which rolls on to this day on that station.
