My music taste seems to be getting heavier and heavier over time, and not only that, it seems to be going back in time too....
I've always liked bands like Rammstein and Fear Factory, mixed in with a lot of other, softer, alternative music.
Then I got into Cradle and Pantera, and Japanese metal :p
Then my boyfriend took me to an Iron Maiden concert about a month and a half ago (I abhorred Iron Maiden for a long, long time) and suddenly the world of 80s metal is my oyster.
Can't get enough of Maiden, Priest, Metallica, et al.
Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and also if anyone can recommend any bands to check out? The next band I wanted to chack out properly were Slayer - anyone give me an idea where to start?
Cheers smile

I wouldn't particularly say that my tastes have gotten heavier, but I do now have a a broader taste that extends towards heavy, abrasive, and atonal music.
Growing up, I mostly heard pretty sweet, melodic pop music. My mom, being a Detroit native and a teen of the 60's, was really into Motown, and later, into more folky pop. My dad never really listened to music until he was in college, at which point he listened mostly to pop music. As a kid, when driving in the car with my parents, I'd hear a lot of BeeGees, Supremes, Elton John, Temptations, Barry Manilow, Billy Joel, the Mamas and the Papas, the Carpenters, and Abba, among others.
This was pretty much what I listened to until I was in late middle-school, when I started branching out and looking for artists on my own. For a while, only obviously melodic music attracted me. Over time, I grew more patient of other types of music.
It's really only been in the last year or two that I've started getting into industrial, noise, no-wave, and other abrasive genres.
