I used to listen to a lot of loud, angsty metal from Scandinavia when I was younger. I still like that music but I have found myself drawn to quieter stuff. I got into hip-hop listening to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, which really shows my (lack of) age. I try to seek out new music to broaden my tastes, but it feels more like they are just moved around a bit and stretched from time to time. New music gets pushed out as new ones appear. The good ones leave something behind in the mind. Maybe the changes in mood that we expect from music are more important. Some music is angry and provides catharsis, some music is soothing, some music is especially intellectually stimulating? This sounds like a possible topic for another hubski thread.
