Music Snob

I find as I get older, now approaching 10 years since I graduated from college, I am getting oddly reminiscent about that age I dismissed at the time. I find myself drawn especially to music from the 90s. Music that, at the time, I dismissed as inferior, though secretly enjoyed.

Music like Collective Soul, Beck, Live, and Smashing Pumpkins. Part of it is that 10 years is a benchmark time in my life away from college, but also because there is a channel on Sirius devoted especially to that music, Sirius 24 Lithium.

But what I find strange is that the majority of that music that I now enjoy listening to was shunned by me at the time as inferior, shitty music. Now I like it, go figure.
