CRAZY-HORSE Wrote:I listen to ALL genres of music because occasionally I find something from a genre I normally wouldn't listen to that I like(rap and metal mainly)...
I also listen to artists I don't like on the whole because its possible to like an album from an artist you don't like....I guess its the music I listen to, not the artist.
a couple of examples over the last couple of years are:
I cant stand Bieber or Miley, but I love their respective tracks "love yourself" and "wrecking ball", and I I refused to listen to them
because of who they are I would have missed those two great tracks....
I always say: that to appreciate music fully you need to listen to everything you can(others may disagree, but that's me).
I also try to listen to one album online,mainly Spotify, every week, I usually try to pick an artist ive never heard of just for curiosity value....
this year I discovered several artists with back catalogues i'd not heard of and ended up buying their album release rom 2015...
those artists are:
Nathaniel Rateliff
The Sword
Blackberry Smoke
Eagles Of Death Metal
Stratovarious
Leaves' Eyes
Shane Nicholson
my collection would be boring if I only ever purchased or listened to artists I love so im always on the look out for 'something new'....!
I don't really understand your view but from what I did understand, I think if you looked more into these guys, you would probably dig them. But from what you said how you don't like metal or rap, I would find that more challenging than the usual person because they're a little bit of a combo of that except not so much metal. Don't get me wrong is dislike metal too but these guys are ane exception for me. I've only heard like 2 songs with them using some scremo but its only for a little section of the song. Maybe you just need some maryjane to kickback and listen to them also :music:
