Dude, yesterday I heard a radio ad promoting "vintage alternative" music and it was fucking "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers.
Vintage.
I wanted to throw my geriatric elder Millennial ass through my windshield.
I feel you. The local alternative station played a "throwback" of Macklemore's Thrift Shop.
That song is 20 years old.
Why would you say that?
Because it is a fact.
Slanders, sir. For the satirical rogue says here that old men have gray beards, that their faces are wrinkled, their eyes purging thick amber and plum-tree gum, and that they have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams—all which, sir, though I most powerfully and potently believe, yet I hold it not honesty to have it thus set down; for yourself, sir, should be old as I am, if like a crab you could go backward.
Lies! I can't here you!!!
Don't worry, you can consol yourself with all the great new rock music being made
Tbf, even as someone around the same age as you, I can't even make my own. Like, purely as a hobby but it all comes out as like stuff from the late 60s and early 70s. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't make the rock/guitar music i grew up with.
I could always drown it in fuzz or hide the guitars, like everyone else these days I guess.
I'm just having a moan. I think its partly the emergance of rap etc. but also a generation traumatised by covid might not be into the same leary, brash rock sounds others might like. I mean, hearing it live with a huge crown thats full of energy makes such a difference. I'm hoping when there's a higher percentage who experienced it live during those years instead, it might get better.
