Same. I’ll rarely put on music from my teen years (90s for me), but for the most part I’m listening to stuff released from the past 5-10 years, or older stuff I’ve recently discovered from before my time. There is great music (and shit) from every decade.
Comment on Music just isn't good anymore

Man I must be an outlier apparently, I don’t listen to any of the music from my teens or even my twenties except in rare nostalgia trips. I’m constantly finding newly released songs that I like and even cringe at some of the music I liked as a youth. I don’t think I can even define an era of “best music” - there’re so many great songs across all music.

A few months ago I decided to listen to a few albums I used to be obsessed with as a teen. I just… didn’t feel anything anymore. The music used to vibe with my teenage angsty energy, but being in my 30s now it just doesn’t hit the same.
Meanwhile, I still rock out to classic rock and oldies from before my time. I was just singing Steve Miller Band and The Beatles on my way home from work - no radio, just felt like singing.
Though some stuff I listened to in my youth is more relevant now than ever. Songs written during the Bush era criticizing politics are as cathartic to scream out as they used to be…
