I feel bad for GenX'ers that missed out on the 60s and 70s.

Brings to mind that wonderful line from Keenan Thompon on SNL, mocking grumbling Boomers and their whiny Millenial children: "I’m Gen X.  I just sit on the sidelines and watch the world burn.”

Same with metal, most pass n say not music.

for those like me, it was amazing, from79-93-ish, it was simply amazing, 

Metal these days is just this screamo eejits , you know who u are

most or all of these 3 word bands are just an embarrassment to the metal I grew up on.

 Bring me the day? Really?  They use 2 singers, some do, one singer is descent, then at parts they use other guy to just scream, and it’s awful.

 Sure, metal is a acquired taste, 

pit sure has changed since 1982-3

bullet for my valentine

5 finger death punch? Tripe

plus most incorporate rap style lyrics, and the same tone changes, so monotonous and bleh!

if this is your thing, enjoy, 

I was told limp biscuit was metal, and Deicide was just hitsay, I didn’t know what to say to the lil bopper  except popping in satan spawn;the cacao demon to prove my point.

lil sally boy about cried……too much I think for the lil easily offended mite  

I rested my case.

 I listen to satellite metal channel, a lot is just garbage.

if you hrew up in the 80’s and listened to metal, and compare to the so called metal these days, there is no comparison , maybe it’s me?

 I’m old, but still play darkness descends, Melissa, welcome to hell, bonded by blood as loud as I can!

 I don’t know…………

60's-70's-80's-90's-00's...all are perfect, if you search deeper a lot can be found, the point is how young you feel to follow and how opened minded to accept.

Just had an article pop up in my pocket feed about "the 40 most important guitar solos of the 20th century". My first thought after dismissing it as Boomer clickbait was simply, who gives a crap? The guitar solo itself is an antiquated musical construct. Music has moved on. And yes, there are many solos which are absolutely beatific, but holding on to that musical paradigm as being the be all end all of musical existence just marks you as a dinosaur bound for extinction.
