New music, Old music

[Spongebob]

Does anyone else feel like, old music gets preserved well beyond its expiration date? And old bands have been musically irrelevant for a long time, as in, they don't put out good music anymore? And people are trying to keep the bands' legacies alive in an inappropriate manner, to the point that it actually stifles up and coming creativity? Don't get me wrong, there are some old bands that I really love, such as Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Metallica. I just feel like people shouldn't gush over old bands and keep the music scene trapped in the past, always trying to live up to old standards. There are newer artists I listen to, such as Carly Rae Jepsen, Billie Eilish, and Grimes, who really take modern music to a really great place, and it would be really cool if more modern artists did novel stuff with their music. People shouldn't gatekeep old bands, they're old news. Let's bring in the new.

You shouldn't be concerned over what music other people like and want to listen to.  It's none of your business.

Of the three artists you mentioned, only Eilish is remotely "new".

Classical music is definitely good, but also boring.
