I've heard of most of those bands. I've been hearing Fall Out Boy recently and I think there songs before were better than today. They went on a hiatus, right? I used to love hearing Linkin Park but they got a bit 'softer'. I don't mind the soft rock genre, though. Castle of Glass is just that; it's a nice song but I prefer there previous approach to songs. I've recently also got introduced to Switchfoot; loved their song Dark Horses. Owl City is actually one of my favourites as well. I learned about Deadmau5 after we went to a concert; my friend invited me and I didn't know who the performers were lol.
I usually listen to everything except country (some exceptions like Florida Georgia Line) and BS rap like Lil Wayne, Drake, Lamar, etc. I mostly tend to hip hop/R&B, bass & drum, electronic, a bit of dubstep, and rock music. My sister usually introduces me to songs. I am not really that much up to date with the latest releases. I'm subscribed to YT channels and show the top 50 songs every week so that's pretty much my updates lol.
I have a feeling you play an instrument. Don't know why though haha.
