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?

Its a mix. Finding new music is difficult and time consuming. But sometimes I actively try to find "new" stuff. But being in my late 40s that means basically anything less then 10 years old.

Back in "the olden days" the sieve of radio made me listen to a lot of stuff and I could pick what I liked. Post listening to the radio (because these days they are all either just playing the same stuff or gone).

But with a little effort I've found stuff.

I've recently found Bury Tomorrow and I'm liking a lot of their stuff.

On another genre side I've found Hugo Kant and really dig his stuff a lot as well.

I also found a throw back sort of trip hop band called Mirrors for Princes that I like though they don't have many songs.
