It would not give the full scope. Would not show you how deep and weird this area of music history goes, but at least you could be proven wrong on your assumption that the entire genre is without merit.
I mean, just take my ill will towards the rock muic genre. Which, by the way, has rubbed Elph the wrong way more than once. Despite that, I still see what's so great about PJ Harvey, and I love Roxy Music (plus I loce some Bowie songs, appreciate a bit of Sonic Youth, etc.). My hope for this whole experiment (if it ends up going anywhere) would be that Elphenor would learn to appreciate just a few metal acts. That's really all.
