You really have no clue how much music I listen to, do you? I know bands that use tones and sounds that would make your head explode."

That would be really arrogant, though.
I feel like a arrogant twat at times, even though I really am not one. Like when I go to mention a band to someone, and because of how much music I listen to and how much digging I do for my music compared to others around me, i stop and I ask if the person have heard of them before. Either that or I say something like "I'm not sure if you'll have heard of them" or "I'm not sure if you'll like them" because you know, i'm talking to a Pantera fan about Melt Banana or something but it doesn't always come across the way I intend it to.
