Mostly from the Ros Serey Sothea, Pan Ron, Sin Sisamouth and So Savoeun era. I hadn't heard any modern stuff and if this album is any indication of what's considered the popular music scene today in Cambodia, then I am horribly disappointed. <br /><br />This is just overproduced corporate nonsense. The bands sound completely the same, and none of them play an original note - it sounds like there was only one arranger/composer for the whole bunch and every song is a ripoff of what they think they'll be able to sell - like the band on American Idol. <br /><br />It's horrible. And it's terribly sad, considering that Cambodia had one of the best scenes for Rock & Roll going ever - comparable in creativity and talent with anything ever produced anywhere. There may have been music just as good as the old Cambodian stuff from the 60's and early 70's, but there sure as hell wasn't anything better. This is awful.Dolmancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17785557686091385828noreply@blogger.com
