Random music subject #1

As a kid from the late 90s, I got to listen to multiple bands from video game licensed soundtracks like Road Rash 3D, Wipeout 64, Test Drive 5, Sega Touring Car Championship and V-Rally 2. And Pokemon The First Movie's soundtrack. The catch was I wasn't very enthused about music back then.

Until I was in 2003.

Evanescence, Gorillaz, The Rasmus, The Darkness, Goldfrapp, Keils, Beyonce, Radiohead, Outkast were showing up their music videos on MTV or Much. YouTube didn't exist back then until 2005.

My interest in metal wore down in 2012 and 2013, actually.

I wish I could've abandoned metal in 2010 and get into Crystal Castles music, instead.

Being an teenager with an edgy taste of music sucks, but it had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it worse.
