Way back when I was in college a few of my friends were into the band Sepultura. I remember downloading a bit of their stuff and deciding that it was way too heavy for me to listen to and enjoy. I was trying to get into it, but it was too heavy and impenetrable, it just sounded like a bunch of noise and some clown yelling.

A similar thing happened in the first year of university when Adrian bought a Will Haven DVD. This time it was even more noise, and while I didn't say anything at the time I didn't get how anybody could even hear anything musical in there, let alone enjoy it. They might as well have been banging on pans and screaming.

Skip forward to 2008 and I've been living with a bunch of metalheads listening to their stuff all the time, and now the exact same songs that once sounded like static noise suddenly seem relatively tame and melodic. Weird how things change over time.
