Music should be about taking yourself out of your comfort zone and trying to immerse yourself in as many different sounds and genres as possible. I am not asking you to like them. Just try them and maybe you will find a whole unexplored avenue of music that reaffirms that passion for music.
I am not for once suggesting that we all get on our knees and fellate every new thread on here but damn is'nt it about time some of you started chucking some names at the more mature of us who are not in the loop?
Is it a lack of confidence at getting shot down if your recommendation does'nt currie favour with all? F uck that. Post away.
Never ever be satisfied with what's sitting in your music collection. There is literally millions of albums out there waiting to be discovered. Go find them FFS.

Yeah, I'm really bad with this one. As a result, I have a tiny music collection on my PC.
It's not so much that I won't listen to new bands, it's more like I go for them if the description of their music sounds appealing.
