I have some friends my age still listening to the same bands they used to 20 years ago, complaining about how music today sounds all the same. However I discover something new almost every day and I'm not kidding.

It's true that some of my discoveries are bands from decades before I was born, so they can't be considered new, although they are new to me if that makes sense.

What about you? Still listening to the same tunes you used to listen to when you were a teenager?

Yeah they're not my favorite personally. I'm not super into symphonic metal and their particular brand of it just sounds extremely "noisy" to me, like I'm at a festival listening to a death core band and there's a power metal band on the next stage whose sound is bleeding over. I'm more of a Signs of the Swarm guy.

That being said I can't stop watching Ramos' one-takes, and I love the bands' breakdowns (although I'm already seeing their style become trendy and its definitely gonna get old at some point).

I feel like their breakdowns are already kind of old, like they force the same half time into half time into half time break for every song. But on the flipside, I love the symphonic blend and how they mix in a lot of technicality and melody into their guitar and drum parts. Different strokes!
