My biggest turnoff this millenium

has certainly become the persistent idiocy of people going "This is the new Joy Division!" with every band that stands a bit stiff and standoffish on stage, whose harmonics consists mainly of bass, and has a singer who sings low and with disinterest. It's not because you look and sound like JD you are anything more than early New Order. What you need to be the new JD is the brilliance of Curtis' lyrics, and I haven't seen those in any of the cases. What's wrong with the eurotrash scene? I didn't hear anybody try and explain how 50 Cents is the new Public Enemy when he was debuting, so *exasperated* why? How? Do these people even listen to music/the songs? Or has the constant barrage of information affected people even worse than simply their ability to focus on a book; can't they even focus on one song--music and lyrics included--anymore?
