Don't really listen to the metal genres too much nowadays cos they can bring out the OCD in me lol. Guys, you talk about being a "music snob"? I used to be very much one in every sense of the description. For practically all genres of music, truly esoteric ones too. Just as an example I went through a phase where I steadfastly refused to listen to anything that was recorded after the 1920s Just to throw some random names out there: Dock Boggs, Charley Patton, Mississippi John Hurt, Fletcher Henderson etc. etc. etc. etc. ad infinitum. Being a Scorpio, I can be kinda complex: I was a jock, but I was also that guy in the used CD store rummaging and looking for the most esoteric genres and CDs ever. It became exhausting. Unbalanced my life.
Nowadays I'm much more "mainstream", part of my way of blending in I suppose. For example, was just listening to Liam Payne and Rita Ora's "For You" Surprisingly good effort, as is Taylor Swift's "Style".
Anyone familiar with the Jump Blues genre here? Wynonie Harris one of my favorite artists of them all.
