it's okay, nobody grows up anymore, listen to whatever you want
>>
why not, a lot of that music is for drinking and being depressed, its universal to the human condition.
not like its rap, where its about hoes, money, and cars, and you have to be 16 years old forever
>>
Corgan said his music is for people between 14-24. I'm 23 and I try to listen Nirvana and Pumpkins as much as I can and then stop once I turn 25, so I can always associate their music with my early 20s. I already associate 1979 and Tonight with the time when I graduated the equivalent of junior high at age 15.
>>
What the fuck dude just listen to shit you enjoy motherfucker stop caring so much about /mu/ stupid ass pretentious niggas that's such a bitch attitude
>>
>>127579749
I'm already behind in life and it's weird attending (alternative) concerts where most people are under 25 (and occasional Xers who come for the nostalgia). Maybe I should apply the 'move on and grow up' thing to music as well.

not reddit. reddit would tell you to stay a man child forever
>>
>>127579895
yeah, you're right because obviously reddit is one person and staying a man child forever is the exact same thing as listening to certain music
>>

Why
>>
>>127579859
Whole lotta fuck it
>>
People listen to their childhood genres, which is why Nirvana is dadrock and why whatever is your favorite band right now will inevitably turn into dadrock too. So feel free to continue listening to your favorite music because it'll turn into dadrock without you needing to do anything.
>>
>>127579706
Ofc, you can even watch teletubbies when you're 80, but I never got why people like grunge, it's so grating and unmelodic...

Man it's really easy to tell when people barely listen to rap other than the crap they put on the radio. It's like thinking country is only stadium country.

>>127579706
You are way more of a faggot if you have to constantly mask and construct a fake socially correct personality to impress people who do not give a shit about you. Listen to whatever you want, I'm past 24 and I listen to whatever I want no matter how embarrassing it is. I will, of course, won't play certain playlists in front of certain groups.
>>
>>127579706
AIC and Pumpkins are eternally based but listening to Nirvana after 18 is embarrassing
>>
This OP was the strangest one I read today
>>
Pumpkins is faggot rock idk what psyop /mu/ tryna put through treating this shit as based
>>
>>127579706
what kind of question is this? What the fuck am I supposed to listen past 24?
>>
>>127580066
pumpkins and nirvana continue to filter many people. you never really got their sound
>>
>>127580087
Corgan said it himself.

Nirvanas really good, another /mu/psyop pretending is that it sucks.
but pumpkins actually annoying asf even 12 I couldnt listen to them

Only this and above.

>>127579933
So one day Olivia will be dadrock too
>>
>>127580087
It's the truth. You are supposed to become busy with work and girlfriend/family once you are in your mid 20s. The themes discussed in alternative music are not relevant to your life any longer
>>
>>127579706
Only Rage Against the Machine is unacceptable for a self respecting adult to listen to.

Just off yourself now and save yourself a lot of grief. Unless you have actually have a great piece of art in you. Then instead make it and THEN kys.

There exist Disney adults and Funko Pop collectors. You're fine.

Nintendo fans, Harry Potter fans like man you're concerned about a non problem
>>
>>127579706
Don't listen to any of these fucks on here. Their opinion is invalid because they simp and praise the likes of Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina carpenter (pretend songwriters).
>>
>>127580380
I can't believe there are people who like this. A great prank of the time.

>>127580300
sounds kino

>>127579720
FPBP we live in the age of the man child for better and for worse. Many older Zoomers and later Millenials still live at home or rent out a shitty flat. Society has failed us, why should we add extra suffering to our lives by removing mundane things we enjoy like music when there's nothing meaningful to substitute it like a large house and a mortgage or a wife and kids? You're just being retarded at that point.
>t. 25 year old Zoomer
>>
>>127579706
No, you'll get the living piss beaten outta of you if you listen to alternative music past the age of 24 in public.

I think younger people care more about what other people think when it comes to their tastes or try to project a certain image. The older you get, it's like, whatever. You figure out what you like, and whatever you like = it rocks. If you don't like it, you're not interested. My dad is 70 and listens to a mix of Tool, some Woodstock stuff, a female Led Zeppelin cover band, and progressive house mixes on YouTube which he has on in the background while playing around on his computer.
>>
>>127580482
I am loathe to agree with a zoomer, but this is about as on-point as it gets.

What are you going to listen to otherwise? Jazz, Classical, Ambient and Blues and Deconstructed Club? While living with your parents, or renting some shitbox with bad pipes and chipped paint? You’ll never smile ever again.
>>
>>127579706
Whatever, they play that shit on the radio. Nobody cares
>>
>>127579706
>Nirvana
>Smashing Pumpkins
>Alice in Chains
>Alternative
If you only listen to mainstream radio, then you could call them alternative. Nevermind by Nirvana is as unalternative alternative as it gets, every normie knows of Nirvana.
>>
>>127581885
Alt-rock was a label that described the formerly underground currents of rock (college rock, punk rock) that gained mainstream recognition in the early 90s.
That's why it's called alt. It was alt to the previously mainstream forms of rock. So it's a tag that reflects those times, not in perpetuity
>>
>>127579706
Stop looking for other people's approval you faggot. Growing up isn't about music taste.
>>
>>127581885
not really. SP is the definition of alt rock.
>>
>>127580640
I think when you get older, you just learn to mostly not tell most people what music you like, thereby freeing you to listen to whatever you want, Better that than trying to actually make elite taste your totally lived reality by always avoiding non-patrician music, or only listening to "mature" music.
>>
>>127579706
In utero is better

This

>>127580087
It's the time to make your own music and not longer listen to other people music, loser.
>>
>>127580482
thats kind of dumb. so you would listen to different things if you had a house?
>>
>>127580087
Unwound, Cocteau Twins, Natural Snow Buildings, King Crimson, and Boards of Canada
>>
>>127580090
pumpkins and nirvana are nothing alike you fucking retard

Probably not as much because I'd be busy plus I don't want to leave a bad impression on my kids (until they're teens so I can save them from getting into niggerbabble)
>>
I can tell you haven't grown up yet
but let me tell you anon
maturity means taking ownership of yourself and knowing who you are
take pride over the things that make you you and have the confidence to get rid of the things that don't
and if alternative music is a part of that, then fucking own it
>>
>>127585068
illiterate
>>
>>127579706
Alternative to what?
>>
>>127586575
originally? Hair Metal, new wave, synth pop
