Somehow, the greatest music ever made is always from your senior year of high school.

Been really getting into playing drums on Clone Hero recently and it's given me a chance to rediscover so many songs that I haven't thought about in years.
Been listening to a lot of breakdowns of intro guitar riffs and synths from ‘80s and some ‘70s music. That shit is still awesome, especially seeing as so much of it was still brand new and experimental with the electronic side. Really hits the nostalgia button hard, though.
My dentist plays a '70s soft rock channel. It's really impressive how good the production is on that stuff, and people could actually legitimately sing! No autotune or melodyne in sight.
Nah, I had great taste, I still listen to Pink Floyd. The only thing that has happened over the ages is I've become more open to different kinds of music, where I was more closed minded when young.

When I was a kid I discovered Poison the Well and Thursday. Which led me down a rabbit hole, and I never turned back. I still listen to and love those bands as well as a lot of heavy music.
I think the biggest difference between old me and young me is that I’m not afraid to like music people think is bad. My friends at the time were very disinterested in screaming.
Damn, haven’t seen Thursday mentioned in the wild in years! I used to go to their annual holiday/New Years concerts every year.
Pop in full collapse :)
Let's see... Metallica, Testament, Saxon, Black Sabbath, Blind Guardian, the offspring, bloodhound gang, Eminem, Dynamite Deluxe, die absoluten Beginner... Those are the ones that immediately come to mind. I'm fine with that. Still listen to a lot of those today.
I still have a soft spot for my high school playlists. Its still not making to my frequently played lists, but its worth a stop every couple months
Um, okay, I'm pretty sure I'm still going to love Dashboard Confessional.
Totally off base! ..... Except for Hollywood undead.

Nah my music was better then. Now I listen to whatever slop the algorithm feeds me because I dont have time to build and maintain a curated offline library like I used to.
