I've been thinking over the past couple of days that a lot of music I've been hearing recently is just really, how can I put it - Crap! I feel nothing anymore. I love discovering new stuff but a lot of the mainstream stuff is just so uninspiring and similar.
I was going through the music on my computer and MP3 and I have found that I am no longer so excited as it has been a while since I've added to the collection. It's lacking something - I need to discover new artists and material that touches me. I remember years ago I'd listen to Sigur Ros, Keane, Coldplay and other random songs and cry...some of those songs were so cathartic. But now I am looking for new stuff that will capture my imagination and take me somewhere else - provide me with an out of body experience but just hitting a brick wall instead.
Recently I found that I am discovering things that had been released years ago - harking back instead. I think that's the way forward really because a lot of what I have found that is apparently 'the future' is just absolute and utter bull.
But I won't stop looking; it'll be difficult to find decent stuff but I'll keep at it and hopefully discover timeless gems.
