For instance, I listen to many different genres despite my preference for numerous types of metal (Symphonic Metal like the band Within Temptation is one of my favorites) and hard rock, from classical to swing (fast and slow), American folk, blues (I love me some Leonard Cohen), Rat Pack, Electronica (Daft Punk comes to mind), punk (and oi!) and limited dubstep (Lindsey Stirling namely, but she's on the mild end and is an amazing violin composer).
Bear in mind, I'm a dreaded Milennial.
Maybe you should start listening to Pandora Radio and broaden your horizons. It's free, and it opened me up to a lot of bands and artists I would otherwise have never heard of. It plays a song based on an artist, genre or song you tell it you want to hear similar music from, and you tell it whether or not you like the songs it chooses. It then provides you with a random playlist based on the components of your preferred music, and it's more complicated than simply choosing by genre.
I enjoy all genres of music, from rock to pop, from classic to country, from oldies to opera, most jazz, etc etc etc. But I draw the line at what gives me a headache thru dissonance and pure volume. Grunge, heavy metal, blowout jazz noise etc... that’s why there are “off” and “change channel” button and dials.
I will try Pandora, at your suggestion; thanks.
