You guys wait until I get my podcast stats for the year
Podcasting died 10 years ago, whenever Cum Town realized you can go zero effort and people will still listen regardless. and then all their friends followed suit.

I listen to some shows on and off, and I'm sure theres good stuff out there, but I wouldn't be able to do a top 5 for each year.
 
I guess if you've built your entire identity around a handful of bands that you liked in your teens I guess new music would be quite confronting.

Wasn't there a study once that concluded that the bands/artists you loved from your teens to early 20's will always be your most loved regardless of how you want to appear as a hip old geezer into new music.

I used to like stuff like Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth in my teens. Circle pits in Devildriver.

I've mellowed.

They say that what you listened to at the age of 14 sets your music taste for most of your life.
Not necessarily that you stick with the same bands/songs, but that style of music is what you follow.

I did laugh at the hip old geezer comment but why is it that listening to new stuff viewed so negatively?

I could easily and it would be the same a the year before probably

Maybe it's the Boomers who jump on bands like Greta Van Zeppelin & announce to all and sundry "These kids are bringing back real rock & they play instruments GEE GAW GAH" who sully the waters.
 
Now that the conversation has followed it's predestined pathway to spotify sucks and podcasts are all shit (results skewed by Ozzy dying):

I'm not saying I completely agree, but I would say there's bands/artists that become base camp in your musical DNA.

edgie never leaves base camp perhaps

I'm not here to force a post about me listening to a variety of music, that's ****ing lame. People talking about how they like a variety of styles. Pure cringe. People can believe what they want. I'm not here to shatter images people have in their heads either. If I feel like talking about something out the blue I will raise it, not because there's a few bad attempts at bait.
 
Music is weird though a song you should hate in terms of what your taste is generally like can stick like shit to a blanket in your mind if it has a memory attached.
Most of those memories usually revolve around teens getting laid, or some sort of event leading to it.

Trust me, I never had to worry about that. There's not much nostalgia for me.

Lot of nostalgia about walking to the top of the line of lode and belting out the Blues Brothers though.

Ahh fellow BtB appreciator.
Need to add some of The Dollop/weird little guys to your list.
 
I was thinking more of Sailing transporting me back to sitting in granpa's car on a Sunday & I'll randomly start singing that fukcer at odd times. TAKES ME AWAY......
The only thing I got from grandpa's car was third degree burns from the vinyl and belt buckle.

And I still do.
 
Anyone here with a tradelink trade account? I am after caroma contura stuff for my renos and tradelink seem to be the only place that stocks plenty of caroma stuff.

Highgroves looks like great value for basins and things but i dont know i trust the tapware.
