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'm a mix. I really enjoy finding new bands, even if they're not new bands. Recently I've gotten EXTREMELY into Lorna Shore (Deathcore/extreme metal band). I'd never heard them, they've been around about a decade, but they're new to me! Last year was the year of Bad Omens (Heavy Rock with some metal core tendencies). I've also been liking this synthy band The Midnight lately (like 80s electro pop complete with saxophone solos).

The way I find most of new bands is usually by either listening to bands I already like or have been into forever and using like "radio" feature on Spotify (Lorna) OR by searching out the openers for bands I like and checking out their music Bad Omens/The Midnight). It's so fun to come across an artist you've never heard and dog into their catalogue and realize they've got multiple albums filled with bangers.

The Midnight slaps! Saw them live a bit ago and they killed it
