When was the last time you heard a band spend time on producing an album that told a story with each song as the album went along? (Think Boston)
Cared about sound quality? Adele sure as hell didn't.
Produced actual music and not just the lead singer singing non-stop from start to finish?

You give them credit. You are a generous man Gary. My hat is off to you sir.the same four words.

Unfortunately, things will not be changing very soon in terms of the loudness issue. My son has an album out that we produced. Sounds pretty good sonically but the other new pop stuff is so loud on Tidal and Spotify that his stuff sounds very low. So, he is having it remastered to make it loud for the streaming services. Thankfully, I have the master files so the tracks won't be ruined totally. He appreciates good sound but he needs his stuff heard. Just the way things are today. Her is a live track recorded with an iPad.
Today's music (pop) is no worse or better than the stuff I grew up with. Pop music in general has always been directed at the masses and was never the main source of listening for individuals who play in the high end sandbox and shouldn't be confused with 60's and 70's AOR or similar genres. There are plenty of artists today who would sell well in any era.
I agree with Still. Essentially we have become our parents on likes and dislikes. Not everything but on many issues and choices.
