I have some friends my age still listening to the same bands they used to 20 years ago, complaining about how music today sounds all the same. However I discover something new almost every day and I'm not kidding.

It's true that some of my discoveries are bands from decades before I was born, so they can't be considered new, although they are new to me if that makes sense.

What about you? Still listening to the same tunes you used to listen to when you were a teenager?

I still listen to new music, but most of it is related to stuff I listened to as a kid. I was big into 90's alt rock, and there's so much of it that I keep finding stuff I hadn't listened to from that era. Right now Butthole Surfers have been getting a lot of play; they were always kinda on my radar, but the name really put me off. Can't believe I missed out for this long.

I've always liked folk punk and alternative country, but there wasn't a ton of it when I was younger. Now there's so much more so I've been discovering lots of new bands. Blackbird Raum is pretty great, and Amigo the Devil might be one of my new favorites.
