As a teen I was a metalhead, always wearing black clothes and listening to heavy metal music on my big cans. I was never able to digest black metal though. It just felt filthy to me, completely the opposite of what I have turned into since I grew out of the metal music scene.

There are so many genres I listen to right now it's really hard to say. There was a time where I went 100% instrumental rock like Mono or Godspeed You and that together with me picking up the bass turned into jazz which I listen to. Reggae has come close to my heart but good old rock music still does it. As long as the lyrics ring true for me. If the singer really has something to say and you can actually hear it (compared to the black metal screams and grunts), something magically happens. Some artists I like are Nahko, Xavier Rudd, Ben Harper, Tinariwen and so many small bands.
