I have just started using Spotify on my smartphone to stream music on headphones while I get some exercise.

I have the ability to create my own playlists and, at present, only have 2: Classic Rock & Modern Rock.

A quick look at my 'Modern' category shows me that most are still well over 20 years old: Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, STP, The Cult etc. Even AC/DC Blow Up Your Video is in my modern category for fk's sake.

Anyone else stuck in the past?

The modern stuff I do find myself listening to sometimes is by Audioslave, Royal Blood, Rival Sons and whatever the latest Foo and RHCP album is. That kind of stuff.

Are there any/many bang up to date rock outfits that would tickle my fancy?

I appreciate that, just like PH, music aint what it used to be, but surely there must be a modern Vedder, Cornell or Astbury.

Yours,

An old fart.

Glad I'm in such illustrious company smile

The E39 come t above made me smile. I've just driven to the office in my E39 listening to Charlatans Melting Pot on the CD changer. If it ain't broke...

Thanks for links above, will have a listen later. Also a friend has just suggested Foals. So far liking their vibe.

They sure ain't no Cornell though.
