What happened to the emphasis on music?

The show used to have a real emphasis on music with characters having their own songs in a sense; the songs marked a change in character or an important arc.

Such as:

Clutch - the regulator The song plays as Rick kills someone for the first time, in the episode Nebraska S2E8.

Wye Oak - Civilain 18 Miles out S2E10, song plays during, IMO, one of the best scenes of the series - where Shane stares at a lone walker in a field.

Ben Nichols - last pale light in the west I cant remember what episode this song plays, but its deemed the governors song.

Ben Howard - oats in the water Hershels song. Plays as he re-enters the quarantined area of the prison during the outbreak of the killer illness.

I can name many more as a lot of them are just great songs and artists in general (check all of Ben Howard's stuff out - truly a great artist)

Anywho, these songs had such an impact and really became a part of the character, and besides once in season 9, the music hasn't really been a big part of the show anymore -- yet again, just an opinion. Would really have loved to see those songs make another appearance for us big fans of the show.

Clutch - the regulator should have been played at some point during all out war, would have been awesome.
