I didn't listen to them much growing up either. In fact, I came to know about them only a few years ago, though I had listened to some of their songs before as a kid but didn't know who the artists were behind those songs.

Even if I hadn't known the band for very long, it still felt like there was a strong connection as soon as I found out about them. It was almost unreal to me. You find something new that you love and can relate with, and watch it fade away just as quickly.

But I did eventually accept what happened, and it brought some solace, which was much needed.
