As I've probably mentioned before, I like a lot of rock/alternative/indie music from the late 1980s through to the mid 2000s. But for some reason, I've liked very little released since about 2009. A lot of pop-rock/alternative songs from the late 1990s and early 2000s had fairly predictable structures and memorable melodies, such as:

*Untitled by Interpol (2002)
*You Held The World In Your Arms by Idlewild (2002)
*Overdrive by Foo Fighters (2002)
*Clocks by Coldplay (2002)
*Warning by Green Day (2000)
*Shining Light by Ash (2001)
*Bionic by Placebo (1996)

Starting around 2006, a lot of music, including new stuff by these bands, started sounding less tuneful and memorable. I gradually came across music like this less and less, and virtually never hear anything that I like anymore - I can only think of one song from the past year that I like (Sean by Foo Fighters). There are a handful of artists still creating music similar to the songs I mentioned but their members are typically in their 50s, rather than their 20s or 30s. Am I just unaware of young bands that do write songs like the examples I gave, or did these songs utilise a style of melody that 's since gone out of fashion?

I was born in 2000 and heard a lot of 90s/early 2000s stuff when I was a toddler/small child - I immediately grew accustomed to it (and most other stuff from that era; it's a natural trate of Asperger's Syndrome to dislike change) and when music began to change (I was 5-10 at this stage) I continued listening to the old stuff. Why am I still stuck (culturally) in the era I was born when others my age have stayed up to date with the times?

What do you think as to the reason why very few songs are still released that are melodically similar to songs like the ones I mentioned? It almost seems as if songs peaked in terms of tunefulness around 2002.
