I started listening to rock music

I started listening to rock music when I was young. My brother used to buy cassette tapes of 90s rock, grudge and alternative rock music. My ears got used to the rock rhythms of different genres. I also got introduced to original pinoy music such as parokya ni edgar and yano. For me rock at that time is the popular music. I disliked RnB, rap and those 80s pop. When my brother bought a guitar I tried learning it too on my own. I played creed and incubus songs over and over for hours until my fingers started to hurt. I enjoyed playing guitar at that time. I am playing only for myself, not thinking of any goals of improving. When I entered high school, I got surprised by the fact that most of my colleagues are also fan of rock music. They also play guitar, planning to set up bands and stuff. We share rock band stories, opinions, and disagreements. I continued to play the guitar. First time I heard a song from Thursday, I said it was 'okay'. Many years have passed and I gave Thursday another chance and try to listen to their second album Full Collapse. I end up being so addicted to the band it became one of my favorites of all time.
