I don't get this talk of, "Well, when I was young and dumb I loved that stuff, but not anymore!" I don't get that at all. This isn't food. This isn't something that gave you food poisoning, or a flavor of alcohol that you drank too much of and puked for a week. It's music! It's like a movie! You like it now, you like it later. I've never heard anyone go, "I loved that movie a few years ago, but not anymore!" It's weird.
It's a simple concept really. Some people my only like Korn (for example) because it is the only thing they know, through radio exposure or whatever. Once a person is exposed to music outside of the mainstream, they may find music that is far superior and suits their needs better than the bands they knew. Some bands are just sutiable for getting you into a genre, but once you are there you realize how one dimensional that band is.
I'm not saying this is the case with the Deftones.
I understand that, but does that make you then dislike those other bands? I don't understand how that works. Maybe it's just me, but if I liked something in 1987, I like it today.
