    I’m absolutely “the gatekeeper”, but these days I like to keep the gate open and welcome newcomers who are interested in hearing an old man’s ramblings.

      This is where I fit - really obscure tastes, but instead of gate keeping, I’m like a Jehovah’s witness showing up at your door, pushing bands on you if you show even the slightest interest

        I am very interested.

        But usually I like one or two songs from one interpreter, there are very few albums I like whole (Wintersun by Wintersun is the main exception, that is amazing from start to end).

        So it’s hard for me to find new music that I like.

          I’ve got a bunch of recommendations scattered throughout the post. Give them a whirl

      I’m the gatekeeper, but I only listen to death, grind and doom. Everything else is more or less bullshit. Especially melodeath.

        You’re telling me you never get in a silly mood and put on some In Flames? But only old In Flames, not that new shit.

          I used to be an In Flames fan when I got into metal, but I grew out of it and can’t stand that shit anymore. With maybe the exception of a little Amon Amarth.

        That doesn’t seem fun at all. I listen to what I like, independent of genre and just respect people that have different tastes than me. Except gatekeepers, get outta here with that snobby attitude.

          I do listen to whatever I like thank you, but it happens my tastes are limited. And I don’t give a shit what others are listening, as long as they don’t force on me.
