It's all obviously related to free downloads innit. You get the music for free so it becomes disposable. If you bought the CD, you'd probably me more inclined to give it a fair chance.
And it's not just downloads, it's also f'ing promos. They killed my stamina. Slowly but surely, it's building back up.
In fact, recently, I've been going through old CD-Rs that were sent to me by NAD, Doomcifer, and Erik. 90% of those albums are worth my time of day to just absorb completely.
Reminder: Must BUY "Stormcrowfleet" at the earliest opportunity.
