A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Because mosts music tastes stagnate after your teens, you are actually admitting your parents music is better - because they are the ones making it. (self.showerthoughts)

Equally when music "used to be better" it's your peers churning out this garbage not your parents who knew better.

Your parents had better taste in music.

I politely disagree.

I used to love pop in my teens year

Transitioned to rock afterward.

Discovered heavy metal in my late forties and now listening to 2000s prog consistently.

I still love some "old" pop/rock songs, tho.

Which prog bands?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Mastodon Opeth Gojira Dream Theater

Yeah, quite mainstream stuff, at least for experienced metal listeners. Always looking for something new, anyway.

Night Verses, Cloudkicker, The Algorithm -Brute Force, Sgaile, Wintersun, and then to mix it up a bit: Standards, and Lantlös
