Yeah sadly. Studies have shown modern music causes fatigue and I think some people at least realize that now. Radio rock is always going to be a sausage waveform. Gotta go underground for good stuff usually.

What's a sausage waveform ๐Ÿ˜‹??

Maybe that's why I'm stuck on soma.fm "eighties underground" all day long (not very underground, just good eighties/early nineties music), when I listen to other radios it's quite tiring in the long run, especially if they jump from say -92 to -98 or 2010 and back, the sound is completely different and saturated.
