It doesn't have to be the old scene.

When I was a teen, I was heavily into this, The Style Council and the like. Thinking I was turning away from my dad's obsession w Northern Soul, I was just digging an updated version.  Lol

Sheermaggedon

Sublime title and content that actually spoke to me. Others have vomited over the barrage of Sheerness but it made me squirm. We are getting older and more distant from current pop culture. We can critique (and we should) but it only accentuates our age and distance from the product.  We need to distinguish ourselves from teens (urgh, ok, target audience sounds easier on the ears). As a parent I feel more aware of how differently I approach (current) music. The way my kids seem to care less about the artist itself nor the connections to others/the past. (Daft Punk helped out the Weeknd, so what? Rihanna was supposed to do Shape of Whomever Is Filling In That Spot)
