If this ever happens to you, it's important that you act clueless and wary.

But then find your ticket stubs from the Curiosa Festival tour in 2005. The night your got daughter was conceived.

I’m excited for when this happens to my. My wife is super close minded about music and won’t listen to anything not on the radio and I’m the opposite. My hope is at least one of my kids will be into weird stuff. If I’m lucky it’ll be both.

"Go back to listening to your old man bands like The Normal and Alien Sex Fiend or whatever."

The Cure has been around for several decades. Only way not to hear of them is to be neck deep in country or bluegrass

[–] kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

I never heard of them, and I very not 11, and deeply into Belakor, Breakdown of Sanity, Inflected Mushroom

You seem Deeply Disturbed. Like the kind of person who would be caught Converting Vegetarians.

I don't get it. Young people are listening to our music it is odd.

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I grew up listening to my dad's music (eagles, Steve Miller, Blue oyster cult etc...) so it's not that unusual that your genetic offspring might gravitate towards certain tastes in music. That said I mostly embraced punk music and my daughter has embraced Sabrina Carpenter and the likes... Not that I want her to enjoy my music, but the stuff these days is largely trash and covering topics that are hollow and pointless. And yes I know not all modern music is that way, but the stuff being shoved in their faces through multiple media sources largely is.

Didn’t Trent Reznor have a cooking show? That sucked. Which makes sense.

Kids don’t listen to the cure or anything real anymore. They listen to electronic computer music that has weird anime like singing

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Nu metal got popular again a couple of years ago, teens are literally making tiktoks about Deftones.

They’re also making TikTok’s about the kind of music i just mentioned, it’s also why baby metal is so popular, because they appeal to both. I have kids and they all listen more to the stuff made on programs and apps. Mostly small self hosted stuff and that’s great. I’m not trying to hate, i don’t know why everyone is so offended because most kids don’t listen to the cure, which is a true statement
