mostly 2nd choice, but I haven't downloaded a few that sounded like there's no way in hell I'd like them. So, yeah, probably like 80% so far, but didn't get back to comment on all of them yet.
Are you listening to the recommendations?

I try to listen to as many as possible and leave my impressions, but I'll be honest and say that I haven't bothered with the ones that are too far out of my element, whatever that means. As for sticking to metal, I disagree (big surprise there, lol)...some of us have no chance in hell of recommending metal that the majority of this board hasn't heard after all...

Shit, I even downloaded and commented on the Tuvan throat singing folk/punk group. There may be some reco's that I just think 'nope, no point even bothering', but generally speaking, I like to give everything a chance.

i must agree with the squid. ive been checking out the non-metal recomendations far more often than the metal ones, but i try to check out anything that sounds interesting.

With the first round I downloaded and listened to all of them. This time I'm picking and choosing. Frankly, I too am probably more likely to check out the non-metal recommendations.

perhaps - no, you're probably right...but at the same time there is only so much money and time in the day, and after nine hours of work, a nice nap when I get home, family errands and reading books, I have not the inclination to inspect every fringe Danish black heathen national tree-worshipping band out thereDemilich said:
I'm fairly adventurous even despite the above, in my office of 100 people, for instance, I am clearly marching to the beat of my own drummer. In fact, the only people I know who are as metal as me are the two sons of one of our supervisors...and that is not a boast but rather a sign of the low ebb of metal in america.

you know what, I never got it...I emailed them and they said, "well, you should have gotten it by now."
no way can I prove they didn't send it, and I'm not going to spend another 20 euros

actually I stumbled on their board purely by accident and noticed that so many of the board members were from Boston, as is the band, and that's my hometown, so I tried them out.
Ellestin, actually I think I might just email them back. thanks.

To be honest Im not really interested in non-metal stuff right now. I check out one or two of the non-metal reco's and most of the metal ones me thinks.

I think there are too many recomendations at once; with the current rate even one recomendation per person would be a bit over the top. Eg I don't have time to give it the proper attention and only pick the stuff that sounds interesting judging by the description, had there been more time I might have been more open-minded
