It's not weird, but remember the bands you listen to now probably grew up listening to the likes of Maiden, Motorhead, Saxon, Angel Witch and so forth, and based at least some of their sound on the bands who had paved the way, so it would be nice to give them a shot. Jansz was like you, then he listened to some NWOBHM (Tyger of Pan-Tang I believe) and seemed to really like it.

Mind you, if it's not for you that's fine, as long as you don't put it down ("Oh I only listen to current metal: old style metal is crap!") --- if it's not your thing that's fine. Nobody's gonna look down on you for not listening to it.
