Five Reasons To Continue To Try New Music - #Music #Blog

Metallica's, 'Cunning Stunts' concert, a great album to really introduce you to this epic band! 
Ok, so first off, I have to say that I to say that until I started this site, I found myself being very set in the type of music that I was listening to... (I know I made it seem like I listened to a ton of different types of music back in the day... And periodically over the years I actually have!) 

But since starting this site I have come to realize that there is so much more music in the world to enjoy! 

And so I thought that I would give you guys my five reasons to continue to try new music... 

At number 5: Being a metal head is cool, but it is not all that is there! 
Being a metal head rocks, but that is not all she wrote!
Don't hate me, but it is true! Besides the obvious, (stuff like Rock 'N Roll,) there are various sub-genres of these types of music, as well as the ancestry of these two very similar genre's to enjoy! 

4: And speaking of historical ancestry... 
Believe it or not, Elvis Presley's music is a great example of the ancestry of both, 'Heavy Metal' and other forms of modern, 'Rock'! 
It is true that all music comes from some where, and rock music, as well as heavy metal music has a rich history of great rock 'n roll/jazz music to enjoy! Stuff like, 'Elvis Presley', etc... And if you close yourself to this bright and beautiful tapestry of music, you will lose out on some of the truly great music! 

At number 3: New stuff!
Deadmau5 may not have been around as long as say, 'Metallica', but there brand of techno rocks! 
Now I have to admit that I have been accused of this in this past, but there is a ton of great new music, some that is great head banging music, and some that will keep you excited... And where as those bands you love should stay like that. If you decide though to ignore the new stuff that comes out... You will miss some great stuff! 

At number 2: Some new and inventive stuff done by bands. 
Metallica's S&M concert was a brilliant, inventive concert!
In the late 1990s, Metallica did a concert with the San Francisco Symphony orchestra, this for the time was pretty inventive and different, and people (myself included,) found that the recorded album is truly awesome! Since then, there have been a ton of other great albums that have done this... Stuff that if you close yourself off to this type of stuff... Well you may end up screwing yourself out of some great music! 

At number 1: Closing yourself off is just stupid! 
Can he see you?
There, I said it, enjoy the bands that you enjoy, but keep yourself open to new music, you would be pretty stupid not to! There is just to much great music out there not to keep yourself open!
