I think I respect you more for liking those bands but also having a good taste of other shit. Some people base their whole taste off of a single bias and the second that is set off everyone goes crazy.

"Everyone claims to love Reggae because they own one Bob Marley record."

Those who consider themselves experts on Funk, on the basis of having heard of George Clinton, and listening to Maggot Brain a couple of times!

And even after delving far deeper into music than when I was younger, most of my favourite bands/artists are still relatively mainstream. Couldn't give a sh[color=black]ite less tbh. A lot of people on forums like this don't like to admit it, but a decent handful of bands/artists out there are popular not because they're "sell-outs" or whatever else, but because they're good.

agree, although there's still the bullsh*t that gets under the radar
