Turn down that loud rock-and-roll! @#%$%!!!
Check out this segment on All things considered where:Robert Sapolsky, a distinguished neuroscientist in his 40s, had a young assistant who played different music every day, from Sonic Youth to Minnie Pearl. That made Sapolsky crazy -- and curious about why his aging ears still crave the music he loved in college. Is there a certain age when the typical American passes from the novelty stage to utter predictability?

I think the problem is with the pop-music cycle. If music tastes oscillate every 15 years or so, then by the time you're in your 40s, music would be the polar opposite of what you grew up liking. My parents weren't so big on hair metal, but they can see the value in Sufjan Stevens and such. Maybe I just like the idea of Dokken having a revival tour. see you in 2021 boys!
