    I think the group has done a good job of keeping the discussion civil here. Keep it up guys! I have refrained from participation as my reactions were to "defend" bands I like, or "pile on" bands that have been mentioned.

    For me, I keep bumping up against this:

    But I think folks have done a good job mostly about keeping it about what they don't get. Good job folks.

    I've been tempted to do the same, then I remembered that in many cases, the fact that few other people "get" some of the artists that I like really only makes me appreciate the artist that much more. I've been called a music snob many many times and I've never seen it as anything other than a compliment.

    I find it really fun to notice what some like and dislike, it just surprises me what some think about popular groups of a genre.
