    Would fit well on the Hardwired to Self-Destruct album I'm assuming this is a prelude to a new album?

    The Beatles have sold a lot more records since 1990 than Metallica.

    And for the record, I own all of the first 4 Metallica albums on compact disc or vinyl.

    All good and well, but I'm talking about musical style. I'm also guessing those Beatles albums aren't selling to many under-50 year olds in 2022. Call me crazy.

    I know that at some point we all stop paying attention to the new stuff and are stuck living in the past.

    Classic rock has made a resurgence. I don't know who buys music anymore, but I know there are a lot of yutes with increasing interest in the roots of all the subgenres of pop music and rock in particular.

    I don't know the specific numbers of how many under 50 are still "listening" as opposed to buy Beatles music. To @chuck 's point, who even "buys" music any more. I don't think hardly any of our member's here do other than me. I'm a vinyl luddite and refuse to go all in on high fi streaming options.

    Looking around on YouTube.com, Instagram, etc, I would say there's still enduring interest in classic rock in general, including Metallica which being 40 years old falls into that genre now.

    At any rate, @JoeEDangerously knows I have Tourette's when it comes to talking shit about technically proficient shredding, even when I own a bit of it.

    Yeah I get there are a handful of real audiophile types buying vinyl and I'm glad for it. I wish I had started that process when I was young rather than pissing thousands of $$ away on CDs, most of which are gone and/or of no use anymore. Of all the things I've pissed money away on that has to rank near the top of the second tier (first tier is Copenhagen and weed).
