Probably true. I don't even really like Slayer, but I've still owned over half of their albums.

I mean I didn't even like prog for the longest and aside from the prerequisite Pink Floyd and Rush songs on the radio probably the first prog I ever heard was In the Court of the Crimson King, because of course it was.

The first prog I heard - at least in terms of full length albums - was probably Dream Theater tbh. It may or may not have irrepairably damaged my view of the genre.

It would definitely explain why you can't stand the vocals. Or it might espouse that you only listen to genre tags, idk.

James LaBrie is bubonic plague in vocal form. I don't know anything else than that.

You've got the real reason. And please bear with me, I'm still in therapy over it.

Wouldn't a dog or dolphin or whatever be better for therapy?

I'm unsure how well fish or canines are skilled in psychotherapy. I'm not sure I'd give my money to one.
