I would rather everyone listen to what makes them happy rather than try to prove how much they know and everyone sucks because they listen to some shit no one else listens too.

Just listen to what makes you happy, even if no one else has heard of/likes it.[/quote:eee32]

Exactly, but... it seems the less known the artist the more 1337 it makes your musical preference here @ times. I am not saying they aren't good most of them kick ass... but it makes having a favourite artist who is mainstream a taboo here. loney:[/quote:eee32]

I think the main reason i listen to mostly underground stuff is that its different. Its stuff that you can't find on a radio that usually surpasses them in some way. May it be lyrics, musicianship, or even shock value. You will NEVER hear a 20 minute Dream Theater song on the radio as you wouldn't hear Gwar - Fish Fuck. If you can be satisfied with on the radio, so be it. However, it doesn't hurt to try something new.
