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 still like to listen from them now and then. Definitely no musical genius there, but it's fun music.

I think Nickelback and Creed are the bridge between 90's grunge and nu-metal. I guess bro-rock would be the proper nomenclature. I thought it would make me happy to see rock bands like that no longer be popular, unfortunately, now there are no rock bands that really get airtime (heck, BR doesn't even catch a rock station anymore). It makes me sad for the genre. Even the "popular" rock bands literally have zero attractive women fans. All the hot chicks are at bro-country shows, so that's where the dudes go to get laid. It is all very very sad.
