It has also taught me to appreciate people with their own minds, regardless of whether they like the same music as me or not as they are few & far between.

That's kind of how I'm beginning to feel. Besides The Fall I really haven't discovered much in the way of artists through this site, that is artists with whom I have a strong desire to explore their entire discography. I've gotten a lot of albums "just to say [I] know about it" from this website but in the last few months I've really began to analyze myself from a musical standpoint and I've come to this conclusion, I'm a metalhead at heart. While I think I did the right thing by exploring indie rock this year, I got a decent bounty of albums, but metal is where I belong.
