20 years ago I was mostly listening to 60s, 80s, and 80s. In the past ten years I have found a crapload of current artists that I love. In the last 5 years I have leaned into bands from 20 years ago that my friends were all into and I have huge nostalgia for. So, listen to what you want. If it's good, it'll be good in any year

No

Me too. Saw them open for yonder back in the day and I was hooked by the second song. I literally just stumbled across this 10 minutes ago from a post in the Stones sub. Never heard it. Not bad at all. https://open.spotify.com/track/4o8N2eXLAHM3ZWR0cqFqRC?si=Wvq4OWcuRg-j3l-OO-o-fw&context=spotify%3Asearch%3Atorn%2Band%2Bfr

I love Blue Mountain.

Nope, it’s pretty cool! Rock on!

I agree with you so much

I had heard the album hit its name from needing to keep this a secret due to royalties/not being able to include the song.

They do a Doors show and it goes a little like this.

The Shape Of Punk That Never Came references the singer Dennis of Refused as well as Refused's most critically acclaimed album The Shape Of Punk To Come which itself was a play on The Shape Of Jazz To Come.

No Life by Slipknot mentions Cool J and Chuck D.

Most hip hop artists give lyrical mentions to other rappers. Kendric Lemar referencing Yeezy's first album on The Art Of Peer Pressure being just one example.

Sum 41 sang about "Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised" on their debut single Fat Lip.

NOFX wrote a song about pop duo Teagan and Sara. I forget the name of it though.

Grimes sings about Bullet With Butterfly Wings and Stupid Girl on her song In The Dark. Those songs being by Smashing Pumpkins and Garbage.

Taxi Driver by Gym Class Heroes

The DJ on the album is played by Michael Mckean. Chuck Mcgill in Better Call Saul

Thirteen Silver Dollars by Colter Wall. About a cop hassling a homeless guy, and part of the lyrics are “I just looked him in the eye and sang Blue Yodel Number 9, he didn’t catch the reference, I could tell” and that song’s about a cop hassling a homeless guy

Rock and Roll Heaven by The Righteous Brothers

I got a blue and red Adidas bag and a humongous binder

I'm trying my best not to look like a minor niner

Went out for the football team to prove that I'm a man

I guess I shouldn't tell them that I like Duran Duran

Blue Mountain has a song called ZZQ that mentions like 15 other songs

Make and listen to music that has soul in it, passion. That's the whole point. This new music is fucking dog shit

Dead Milkmen from Punk Rock Girl

"We went to a shopping mall
And laughed at all the shoppers
And security guards trailed us to a record shop
We asked for Mojo Nixon
They said he don't work here
We said if you don't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin'"

nope, in high school I hung with people that listened to Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd and the Grateful Dead 24/7

Maybe just enjoy what you like and let other people enjoy what they like. Music is subjective. Or option B is don’t care what people think about you and enjoy life!

It's not weird, it's borderline cliche

Okay, first of all Queen is an 80s band. Second, it's cool to be into 90s music if that's what you enjoy, and also if you are open to other eras.

You hear a lot of the good stuff now but a lot of the stuff that was crap you don't hear. It's like what my Mom told me in the 90s about 60s music, the good stuff has survived.

true

Currently they are playing ALL of the music that’s out right now but they only play the good songs from the past. There is a ton of great music being made every day.
