Between 2009 and 2011 especially, I spent a lot of time looking for metal, buying metal albums, listening to metal albums, and all the time, there was this nagging, growing feeling in the back of my mind that it wasn't really what I was supposed to be doing anymore. Then I slowly realized I needed to branch out and I honestly feel more excited about music now than ever.
I've never bought as many albums in one year as I did in 2018. I was drowning in awesome music and only a handful albums were metal.
I still love many metal albums, but it's really, really, reeeeallyyyy hard for me to find new artists that impress me.
