I keep slacking off, but currently I am supposed to explore post-hardcore bands that still sound punk. 4000 album results on rateyourmusic for the genre, yet so little albums are what I'm looking for it is really frustrating. Luckily the forums helped me out, but I stil gotta listen. Currently I'm listening to frodus and digging it.
https://rateyourmusic.com/list/dylst...pdated-6_7_17/ describes my issue with post-hardcore. It's a love hate relationship, because some of the most awesome bands I know fall under this, yet otherwise it is dominated by things I am not interested in. **** my music taste sometimes.
Way back I was exploring entirely new genres to me ( funk, jazz and hip hop) but I got lazy and forgot about it. It takes quite a while to get myself to fall in love with unfamiliar music. After a lot of trying I really dig aesop rock now, even the electronic instrumentals, and I'm not a fan of electronic music.
