or maybe its becuase i like Phish, The Dead and the Dave Matthews Band then smoke weed every night.

my musical tastes really should have little impact on how much i fit in.

Ha. You think so??

Oh 'only' 2? Congrats, that's an infinitely greater degree than I do.
Anyway, I was only pisstaking with my comment, although your response has less than endeared you to me - but man, it's not like my tastes fit in here. At least, not all of them. I like plenty of indie rock and all that shit. I just also like other things, shock horror.
bbqrocks:
Metal is just noise? Well, sure, lots of the more extreme subgenres will sound like noise to the untrained ear but I see no reason why power and heavy metal will sound like noise.
Nodaisho:
Methinks that person listened to the wrong kind to begin with, power and heavy would be best, like you said, though whenever I have to introduce someone to good metal, I start with Maiden, over any other bands.
StreetSpirit:
28.72% - not too bad, but I am amazed by how much French music I listen to, since it was the second largest word on the visual spread of my taste - cheers?

well, metal never did anything for me. it hurts my ears, ive tried. i agree that some of the "tamer" stuff isnt terrible. but some of the hardcore crank up the distortion makes me feel bad inside. its probably becuase i like hearing clean guitars and have the bass be sublte. so i dont understand people who listen to metal and go "man this is amazing music" it just boggles my mind. i dont really make fun of them for liking it though, i mean the guys who wear spikes i think are funny. of course i also think frat boys are funny, guys with mowhawks, tight pants, baggy pants, pot smokers at Phish concerts (RIP Phish), drunk 25 year olds at Eagles concerts (WTF?) this guy who consistently needs to meet his friends in the front row. oh and Bow and Luke Duke from the Dukes of hazard.
Basically, a band that really gets me going is somebody like Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Not just because they are a 'jam band' but the fact that everybody in that band has more talent on thier finger than i do in my body. thats the music i appreciate a lot. im not so into the indy thing that seems to be on these boards, but thats more to lack of exposure than taste though. generally speaking, illl enjoy everything. except metal, it just wont happen.
