This is really weird, because that's exactly how I used to feel. Check out a new metal release, music sounds great as it goes through the intro, then someone growls, hisses or screams and I hit stop.
But over the three years Metal Month has been running, and with the help of people like Mondo, Frown, Jansz and of course Batty, as well as mythsofmetal and grindy, among others, I've learned not only to tolerate those sort of vocals but to actually enjoy them. This is the whole reason I was able to get into doom, black and death metal, insofar as I did. I'm glad I did, as I would otherwise have been missing out on some amazing music.
