    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

        Same with mine. She’s the reason I love Rammstein. We share music with each other a lot, it’s awesome. My dads more old fashioned and likes classic rock but he’ll tolerate me and my brother playing our favourite metal songs for him at least!

          Yeah my father was not having in when I was a teen but thankfully they never tried to get me to listen to something else, it was fine as long as it was in my room lol.

      That’s a testament to the tolerance of millennials. We are more open minded and will at least listen to what our kids have to say.

    • I wasn’t super into metal when I was a kid, I was more into funk and blues. But then my son decided to put on some garbage than he calls funk music. I was disgusted and promptly changed the song to sam and Dave.

      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.
