anybody stop listening to “edgier” music as they aged?

I’m a :marseyzoomer: and my tastes were groomed by /mu/ and related outlets (rym, Needledrop, a good bit of r/*heads subs).

In the past 3ish years I’ve found myself unable to handle “experimental” or “noisy” bands. I used to enjoy just throwing on Sunn and chilling but now I’d rather listen to Steve Winwood.

I can’t put my finger on it exactly but it seems to be a mix of not having the patience for atonal music or really over listen to someone drone on about how life sucks.

Another big change is I can’t listen to a lot of politics heavy music. I think I’m realizing being good at music is probably antithetical to having fleshed out political opinions. Being masterful at communicating universal human experiences like love seems like a much more worthy goal than singing about how incels are bad.

Anybody else have a big shift in their music tastes over time?

what kinds. I can’t find an exact pattern. For example, I haven’t even bothered to listen to Swans based on some short sessions

I never got into real punk for some reason. Always the offshoots.
