synth pop and "indie" rock both suck for the most part, though so does Rush

Sounds pretty autistic to me honestly.

Simple shit can actually be harder to make, and imo it sounds better a lot of the time. E.g. Nirvana.

you're either autistic or a teenager, you have/had a narrow view of music and just need to listen to more to expand your understanding of various types.

there is beauty in all sorts of music but it sometimes takes time to understand it or to get the kind of response you're looking to get out of a particular type of music. just keep listening, you'll get it the more you do

In my first four or five years of playing guitar I would listen to a lot of technical stuff mainly to inspire me to learn it and improve, but I don't think that meant I lost appreciation for simpler stuff. And in fact, nowadays I don't really listen to nor write anything particularly "guitary", but I'm still glad I'm proficient as I tacitly learned theory etc through playing

I kinda getcha in that when I first started playing I'd mostly learn Vai/Malmsteen/general guitar wankery stuff to try and quickly boost my technical ability, but at the same time once I started playing music I also started to develop a more open musical palette. The "simple" music that used to bore me became more intriguing once I was able to hear what was actually going on in a song. Nowadays a good chord progression stirs me up more than a complex melodic line.

just realised I basically copied your exact comment after posting mine

Studying any aspect of music closely will deepen your appreciation of it, but as this anon >>64244959 said, it doesn't mean you can no longer appreciate simpler stuff.
