There are artists, mostly my favorites, I've listened to so much over a long time that they've gotten fairly played out. But I still listen to them, just not nearly as much. My tastes are diverse enough that I'll never exhaust an entire era.

I thought I had on a couple occasions, only to discover some lost treasure that had previously eluded me.

I doubt I will think I could close the book on an era ever again.

Good point. You'll either start understanding the particulars or it'll just be molded injected plastic.

Yes.

Don't do it! It's a trap! 🤣

Idk - I think I get the concept. Do you really need 100 variations of something great? Like there's this less known band that sounds like this really well known band and there's a couple songs they do that are really killer... idk - I'm not sure I have the energy for that when you times that by the thousands.

So I say that, but the (insert stupid word here) in me wants to actually discover and compare. I think once I'm done at least doing some kind of dive into something and it doesn't interest me at all, well then that's when I'd stop going in that direction and start something new.

I guess I have that "been there and got the T-Shirt" problem.

I mean there's just too much music out there - it's either going to demotivate you because it is overwhelming or it is going to send you on a path of never ending music discovery (both of which have their pros and cons).

Likewise.

There's always something new, no matter how old.

I'm kind of that way with Punk (Sex Pistols and harder stuff) but i never really liked it all that much to begin with.

I don’t mean that you never want to hear it again. I mean that you feel you’ve exhausted a particular era, explored as much as you care to, have arrived at what you like, and have no interest in hearing anything else from that era.
