I guess I could say something similar about myself. Though I like thrash and the big three trad bands (Sabbath, Priest, Maiden), I don't like any of the rock that influenced metal (which just about everyone else here seems to like). That's why I made the Zeppelin comment in my first post.Man oh man. For worst, speaking as if I was in other peoples shoes, I would say me. Not because the music I like is bad, but because the music I don't like
How is this a reliable measure for good/bad taste?Man oh man. For worst, speaking as if I was in other peoples shoes, I would say me. Not because the music I like is bad, but because the music I don't like, most, if not all of you like (i.e thrash metal).
Yes, I hardly listen to thrash metal, thats not to say I don't listen to heavily thrash metal influenced stuff (Bathory etc.). Just look at my collection, and you can see how little thrash metal I listen to.
If by good you mean broad, then me
I like thrash, but it's not for everyone. What I don't understand, is if someone likes both death/black and trad/power, but not thrash, which would lie in between. I like everything from brutal death/extreme black to trad metal, and everything in between, but nothing softer than trad metal (ie no rock).I just never got into thrash, it's just one of those things that isn't for me.
Best taste: V5, Childrengrinder, Ozzman
Worst at everything he attemps : Wires and Waves

swizzlenuts (because I've been tutoring him), MalignParadigm, Jean-Pierre (we've had similar taste developments for the past, like, 5 years, so it's not that surprising), DarkBliss, Death Aflame, Rumpole, Crimson Velvet, Scourge Of God, Cythraul, The Gheys
No offense intendended to: cookiecutter (for Brutal DM), V5, Staffino (is that his name?), Zephyrus (I don't like Symphonic BM), IWP, Faith No More
Best: Doomcifer, IoftheStorm, Dodens because they are the ones I know that likes traddoom alot. Fotmbm, J., Crimson_Velvet, etc. has nice tastes too, for other reasons though.
Worst: I don't really keep track on people with bad taste but because The Ozzman bragged that he had so broad taste I checked his last.fm and it was neither particularly broad nor any good. ;D
