I partially agree with this actually, save for a few exceptions. I much prefer black metal, and music overall tbh.( if that makes sense)

What gets me is how devastatingly depressing a lot of this stuff is.
You know, I'm beginning to miss those days when you could just pick a random album off the shelf in a store, come home and just listen to it without prejudice. That's something I should've started doing a long time ago.

So much for black metal being the magical end-all genre that, according to the forums, everyone with a little patience comes to inevitably cherish.

It;s just a phase that nearly everyone who's joined this board, is bound to go through. For some it just lasts longer than others.
But I consider myself fairly open-minded, actually(despite shitting on the majority of established genre classics, hahaha). Why have I punched myself into this dark corner, no idea.

You don't have to switch, music preference isn't exactly a conscious decision
I was a Burzum fan boy for about two years and then I started listening to Erasure. I still listen to Xasthur and all that shit

It's normal to get burned out on Black Metal overindulgence. I did so a couple times, but then I realized that I needed to balance it out with other genres. The first time I burned out I ended up listening to classical music and The Beatles for about a week, then I went out on a limb and picked up some classic doom metal albums, and was incredibly satisfied. Not long later I was back into Black Metal, having established a nice balance.
More recently I've experienced a slight burnout on extreme metal in general, so I'll use that as an opportunity to check out some world music, but more classic heavy metal like Cirith Ungol and Manilla Road. What ends up happening is by burning out on one genre, you end up thoroughly exploited most of them.

...is always best
Every few months I find I look at my collection & cannot find a single album I want to listen to. I'll listen to stand up comedy cds or radio... fuck I've even raided my girlfriends George Michael & Missy Higgins stash in particularly dark times.
Which leads me to my controversial opinion... George Michael is actually an excellent songwriter... middle era stuff I mean.

80s/early 90s pop FTW
Who can say no to a touch of Ah-Ha, or Erasure, or a splash of The Human League?
No one that's who

Boosh!
Dio era Sabbath is better than Ozzy era Sabbath.
Mercyful Fate and King Diamond are both crappy Halloween-themed bands that just need to die out.
Reverend Bizarre, High on Fire, Gates of Slumber, Hour of 13, Orodruin, Witchfinder General, Black Boned Angel, Mistress of the Dead, Voice Transmission with the Deceased, and Men in Search of the Perfect Weapon are all horrible doom acts.
UneXpect, Solefald, Subterreanean Masquerade, and Ved Buenos Ende all suck in comparison to the almighty Orthrelm.
For the first time, I agree with you. Except for the Sabbath thing, Ozzy>Dio.

It's called listening with open-mindedness d00d.
