I like rock music (the beatles, led zeppelin, jimi hendrix, the eagles and more). Those bands are really popular and have amazing musics but funny thing is none of my closest friends or people I associate alot with listen to them. I bet they have never even heard of led zeppelin. I am just so fed up for not having someone with a similar music taste 
I tried listening to supposedly "normal nice songs" that's playing on radiostations nowadays but honestly, it's like only 1% of those songs are bearable. The rest are plain torture to my ears.
I am feeling curious about the few questions below so please do answer them.
1) what type of music do you listen to? (Genre and examples)
2) do your friends have similar music taste?
3) is rock music popular among your friends?
4) do you connect through music with your friends ?(inform them about nice songs/ enjoy listening to music on each other's device)
5) how old are you? Are you currently working or studying?

1) What type of music do you listen to? (Genre and examples) I'm really vast with my music taste. I listen to most genres besides modern Pop and R&B. I don't listen to country or western either. Some of my favourite bands/artists are The XX, London Grammar, Arctic Monkeys, Asking Alexandria, Sleeping with Sirens, Slipknot, Pierce the Veil, Ed Sheeran, Marina and the Diamonds and Lana del Rey. Anything with a good beat to get you moving or good lyrics!
2) Do your friends have similar music taste? Yeah, one of my best friends is as controversial as me and the other likes the same Hardcore bands.
3) Is rock music popular among your friends? Yeah, most of my friends like some genre of rock. Some like modern 'rock' bands that I wouldn't even consider to be anything besides pop, but I won't name any bands.
4) Do you connect through music with your friends ?(inform them about nice songs/ enjoy listening to music on each other's device? Yeah, it connects me with friends of all ages, from my age to in their 30s! I think music can really be powerful with friendships and love because it allows you to get to know the person and what means a lot to them.
5) How old are you? Are you currently working or studying? 16 and studying.

1) what type of music do you listen to? metal, grindcore, shoegaze, classical, drone, ambient, trip-hop mostly, but a lot of artists that defy genre such as The Gathering. I try not to have in my head that I prefer some genres to others as I'll give anything a go, submissions I get for reviews from my site range from alternative hip-hop, to freely improvized Classical Indian/Jazz to modern classical to harsh noise to death metal and more. Give it all a go, like a lot of it.
2) do your friends have similar music taste? Some do, some don't, doesn't really matter
3) is rock music popular among your friends? Again, among some, not among others
4) do you connect through music with your friends ? Those who are interested a lot in music I'll share things with regardless of genre becayse those are openminded people, those who aren't, and will only listen to chart music and don't like to anything remotely new, no
5) how old are you? Are you currently working or studying? 22, working full time while spending most of my free time either listening to music, writing about music at swirlsofnoise.com, or going to see music be made.

1) I listen to everything (apart from drum and bass) for example at the moment I'm really into Imagine dragons, Ed Sheeran, Blink 182, Eminem and Frank Turner.
2) I have friends that like some of the same music as me but no friends that like such a large variety of music.
3) Rock music is fairly popular, it varies depending on the individual.
4) We don't often connect through music, I have done with a few of my friends and my friends and I often sing along with songs we like on car journeys but that's about it.
5)17, studying for my A levels and I'm planning on going to university to study law next year.
