music was seriously tribal when I was growing up. It was almost like you were only allowed to like one band.
doesn’t seem to be like that at all now, which seems like a good thing.

I don’t think these are very representative of the music I actually listened to - I’ve never spent masses of time just listening to my ‘favourites’ and my listening as a whole has always been much more varied than this would suggest.
