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?

Not new bands but new to me. I managed to be a mild metalhead my whole life yet never listened to Iron Maiden. I started on their music a few months ago. I can't believe I waited until I was in my forties to pick them up. Amazing guitar work and great vocals.

I rented their Live After Death from Lovefilm about 15 years ago, and that's what got me into them. Couldn't believe I'd written them off as an 80s band I wouldn't like.
