Most contemporary music sounds like shit. I try to stay current to at least within the last 3 years, but the older I get, the more it just sounds like shit.
South Park did an episode about it, and they were spot on.
I disagree. Am 40 now and still find new music (and genres) I like.
Oh yeah, I'm the same. It just gets rarer and rarer each year that I find something I can enjoy. Objectively, it has nothing to do with the quality of modern music (well, maybe a little lol) just the styles changing and my taste not keeping up.
If you're into rock, check out The Warning. Three young sisters from Mexico who make very solid rock and are brilliant live!
But 1980-1999 music was Objectively better.
Right?
I love classic rock and older Blues, so Spotify Wrapped says I have the musical taste of a 79 year old
As long as it isn't your health app...
For some reason the music that came out when I was between 15 and 25 years old was the best!
I would like to think so.
In terms of contemporary music, do you mean pop / radio songs?
Hard to quantify it, so bear with me.
Not so much a specific genre or distribution medium as much as "the artist/band was born after 9/11". Like, there are some bands that have been around forever and still putting out new stuff and that's mostly fine (though I don't necessarily like all of it) but anything overly electronic is basically a hard pass for me.
This reads as if nothing of the last 25 years is good to you. What do you like? Do you like rock or metal? There's been like 6 golden eras of heavy metal in that time period. Australian rock and metal has been fire for about 20 years. The rise and fall of Djent as a genre. Black metal finally getting with the times production wise. There's as deep a well in those two genres as there's ever been.
Oh fair enough, I actually wanted to mention some music that you may like due to their uniqueness and raw feeling of pain like STOMACH BOOK, femtanyl but technically they are electronical, so you may not like that.
Maybe you would like Lift You Up by Danny Brown. The beat kinda has a ps2 rally vibe to for me. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=lift+you+up+danny+brown
