Yeah, I've pretty well gone that route. I still love Dead Moon and the Sonics, but I didn't listen to as much modern classical, ambient electronic, or mellow post-rock stuff in my early twenties as I do now. But that's a good kind of getting older, broadening your horizons. The lame kind is the people who become more close minded and reject some of the more interesting or philosophically challenging stuff from their youth.
