The Hip is my favorite band. Them and Led Zeppelin are the most played music i have (White Stripes is actually catching up!). The reason i started to play the guitar was because of New Orleans is Sinking.

Thats probably why i like Led Zeppelin and the Stripes, its somthing i can listen to and the go right to the guitar and play. These songs, to me, really make me want to play.

No disrespect to the hip, i love them and all their new stuff, the only thing that has been bothering me after Day for Night has been the lack of guitar songs.

Maybe its just me but there dosnt seem to be many songs i want to learn from the newer stuff. Sure i love to listen and sing to them, but not really want to play them on guitar.

Maybe its because the songs now are less rocky and/or folky. I have owned their guitar tabulature books and the guitar seems to be just a side insturment to the music and not a forfront member. Songs now seem more complicated and/or are more universal for other instruments.

Thats just IMO. Has any other Guitarists noticed this? Maybe you can send me in the right direction. Open to opinions.
Thanks
