Hardly. Good music will get the point across without you needing to read up on the members of the band and the things they've been through. It should mean something to you,and not just trigger some memory of something you've read about the vocalist. Sometimes, yes, I get different messages from songs to what other people might get, but that's not because Im closed minded about it, its because thats just what I hear in the song. Music isn't like watching a film, its not straightforward, every single person will hear something different in every song.
