    It’s strange how us older ex-metalheads are the first different generation music wise

    Our parents were horrified by our taste in music. Their parents were horrified by their taste in music, their parents were horrified by their taste in music

    We’re the first generation that listens to our kids’ music and goes

      It’s the same though isn’t it? While it’s not the reason why we liked the music we liked (more punk than metal for me but same difference) it was always a bonus if your parents didn’t like it. That’s exactly the reaction that kids are getting from their parents now!

      I’m really into new metal bands though, because they are constantly releasing stuff. There are bands out there like Black Breath that will still melt your face off, but I really like the more experimental side of metal, with bands like Abstract Void, Unreqvited, and Botanist all pushing the envelope of what metal is.
