Sucks that the bad stuff today is thrown at people a million ways, but the good stuff usually has to be found.
Old stuff is where it's at, but I wouldn't wanna shut off the new stuff that's inspired by old stuff. Getting your kids on good older music is has to be one of the best gifts you can give them.
Listening to Houndmouth's new album last few days, saw show a few weeks ago near their hometown, crowd was extra good w longtime fans. Think they're set to get popular this year, at least among the alternative crowd. Otis, For No One, Black Gold, Honey Slider probably favorites on there.
You'll probably hate it. Things I like and don't like about this music.
I had this thought the other day that even most of the good new stuff is being made to fit inside a box that's been created by shitty music. I need to go to sleep.

I'll be the first admit, I'm stuck in a box of music.
However, I'm only stuck there because I find genius in it on an almost daily basis.
I'd be worried if I was still listening to Blink 182 and Korn all day long.
I'm not worried that I'm listening to music that is old and dead.
I've been through all of it, Hip Hop, Boy Bands, whatever the frick you call bands like Creed and Nickleback.
It all sucks. A song like 32-20 Blues by Robert Johnson holds more musical genius to me than pretty much any song from the last 20 years.
Maybe Im just weird though.

I think people overanalyze their own and others' music tastes, tbh.
Just listen to a little of this, that, and the other thing, and enjoy whatever gets your toe tapping
