Please shoot me when I say, "I may be old, but I saw all the good bands.". Throw in, "for $5," and you basically have my dad during late middle age.

ffs. It's this isn't it.

Like a signpost in your brain. "This is it, shithead; middle age. No coming back from this..."

I don't like Fleetwood Mac aside from some of the Peter Green stuff, so there's still hope.

By this measure, I've been middle aged (or at least very uncool) since I was 25.

But, come on. Those Christine McVie songs suck. The other 2/3s of the material is great.

I keep thinking I should try to get into Tusk, but haven't put in the listens.

Actually recently I’ve oddly started enjoying Black Metal, especially contemporary divergences like Mizmor. Even Immortal and Bathory.

Anyone else’s taste getting money extreme with age?

I've grown to like louder, noisier music over the years. Years ago, I remember listening to stuff like Slayer for the first time and being like, "this rules!" I was never into metal (unless you count Metallica and whatever MTV showed in prime time), but I've become more of a fan of it. I like about 15-20 Cannibal Corpse songs, and have seen them twice live. Black metal hasn't really clicked with me yet, though I enjoy Deafheaven every once in a while.
