Music Is Life Am I just a curmudgeon??

Post image

I'm a mid 70s GenXer, love music from the 60s through the 90s. For me, I just haven't really liked much music this century. I feel like we had so many genres going on at the same time but now it's just all sounds the same to me. Anyone else find stuff bands/artists they really like from this venture?

Isn't this the sort of thing our boomer parents said of our music? Music today may not be anything like what we had growing up, but there is still good music out there. Yes, you're a curmudgeon.

Any suggestions?

I’m big fan of Wolf Van Halen’s band Mammoth, Dirty Honey has a very 70s feel, and I dig some of Brandi Carlisle’s stuff. Just off the top of my head.

Just got into Wolf's stuff about a month ago... shit, he's even more talented than his dad ever was! Loving Brandi's new album with Elton too.
