There's things I don't like about Gen Z, but most of it I understand the reason behind it. The not liking rock music thing is too bizarre though. Everyone liked rock music. If you were in grade school in the 2000s, you were liking music from the 70s, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin - through the 90s.
It seemed like every generation appreciated rock.
But I've heard that Gen Z does not like rock music. I don't get it. To me that's like "not liking apple pie"; it's such an American cornerstone that it's baffling.
There isn’t much mass appeal rock for us Zoomers on pop stations. It’s all electronic pop or some variety of rap. The few who do listen to rock usually transition into metal, metalcore, classic stuff exclusively, or some other more obscure genres of rock/metal.
What bands and music do you like?
Some highlights:
Rock - All Good Things
Alt-Rock - Course of Nature
Hard Rock - Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows
Metal - Light the Torch
Metalcore - Moodring, Suasion
Classic Rock/Metal - Pretty much anything popular + the first Dio album
