Do you listen to any new bands? Or just same as 10 years ago? (beehaw.org)

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 browse Rateyourmusic for new releases that seem interesting, but less and less seems interesting to me nowadays. Maybe that's the first sign of me getting old...

But I thought the first sign of getting old was making those noises when sitting down, etc.

I have never used rateyourmusic to check new stuff, but it was mentioned before in the thread. Is it good?

Yeah I regularly check the top albums of 2023 to see what's popular now, maybe while filtering out some genres that I'm not super interested in, and on the forums people talk about some lesser known new releases too.

Of course, the website is filled with slightly pretentious music nerds, but that's exactly how I like it.
