I'd always said I would never be one of those older guys that complains about modern music, but I am haha. But then again the ease of forming bands, creating music, videos, gaining followers, etc... has drastically changed more than any other time in the history of rock. It is also the longest "dry spell" in the evolution of metal, ever. Metalcore got big when I was a teen and it grew more commercial and popular. 20+ years later and it's still the top metal variation. But has grown very little. In fact it's coming full circle. It started out heavy, got commercial and singy and melodic. Noe the trend seems to be more old school. Speaks volume about the industry, style, and makers of metalcore that they have changed so little over such a long time. Utter stagnation of a genre. There are some I like, quite well. But metal was more varied and did more growth in the past. So, for me, it's hard not to look at old bands. Or to expand into styles I never would have listened to as a teen. So there is that positive from it all.
