Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

If you expand your listening style to beyond what is in popular music, you will find a much steadier stream of interesting music. Look into older jazz, tango, bossa nova, traditional music from around the world. Look into alternative music from the 80s and 90s that would not have appeared on the radio or MTV. There is so much out there and there continues to be so much out there.
I agree that pop music has, in many ways, run out of ideas. We keep seeing the same thing be rehashed with a new production style.
You don't have to look at older music. Those genres are still being made and made well. Hell, there's an alternative rock revival happening right now!
