Yeah I also grew up in a red neck town where songs about beer, trucks, and screen doors were local youth anthems. I have a very low tolerance for anything twangy as a result.
Metal is another challenging one, despite how varied the genre is. There are just a lot of different aesthetics to it that I disliked, which at best are present in twos or threes on an album, and at worst, define it. BUT again, if you listen to enough, you'll find something you love. Thank god for blackgaze. Post-rock and shoegaze was my way in. |

Rosa Yemen Rosa Yemen Only release from this minimalist duo with an absolute french fox, Lizzy Mercier Descloux, on vocals. The EP is only 9 minutes long but it's f*cking awesome. It's like if the band Guerilla Toss existed in 1979. |

I don't think anyone could really get me to appreciate hip hop at this point, but my recently developed love for all things Joan Baez makes me think country is still possible. A lot of her folk songs sound somewhat country, so what's a few steps more in that direction...

I get you. Based off of personal experience, I think familiarity is the best way to overcome those types of expectations.
