ok fine fine fine. you win this round.
however the point is a lot of older music i find to be a bit boring or bland. For example, i can't really stand the beatles or jimi hendrix. It's honestly sounds really dated, basic and generic by todays standard.
it seems like a lot of people are closed minded when it comes to new music and if your favorite band was formed in the past 15 years or so you're usually called some sort of variation of scene ***got.
Hell if i were to make i list of my top 10 favorite artists, dream theater would be the only band formed before 1990 to make the list.
