I was thinking the same thing. I'm not an avid listener of meral, but the last thing I believe it does is rot the brain.

Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, BWV 565

Desensitize, then?

Desensitized to what?

Boring music. http://www.atheistnetwork2.com/image...ace_smiley.png

To softer music that can be equally intense.

Your move...

As time goes on, I learn to appreciate both harder and softer music. When I first started listening to music seriously, I had a small range. I was listening to somewhat energetic rock music but couldn't do anything heavier like metal, or anything softer like folk.

But, eventually, my musical taste expanded in both directions, so now I can listen to a full of hell album and a fleet foxes album in the same day.

I see no reason why listening to harder music excludes softer music.

This has nothing to do with your comment, but Full Of Hell is awesome their new record was one of the most intense records I've ever heard.

I'm the same way. My tastes run from one end of the spectrum to the other. But I never overdo just one genre.
