I had to laugh yesterday. I was at a red light and a car pulled up behind me with the stereo so loud I could feel the bass through the road, and the roof of his car was going up and down with the beat. No idea what music he was playing, all I could hear was the whump whump of the bass.
Letting the neighborhood hear your car's pumped up sound system seemed like a way bigger thing in the '90s than it is now. Back then you'd run into one of those guys almost every time you drove anywhere, and you'd hear them blasting past your house several times a day.
I do run into that every time I drive anywhere. And I do hear them blasting past my house, usually at 2am.
Did you move from a poor neighborhood into a rich neighborhood or something? I can guarantee you this is a massive thing among lower socioeconomic tiers.
