I think I've had phases in my life. There was angry gangsta rap phase. There was a short snobby underground hiphop phase. Actualyl...those were my silly highschool phases. I just realized that I was pretty eclectic in my entire life outside of the time in HS where what I was listening to was dictated by what I thought was cool.

Nowadays I'm really drawn to anything acoustic. I was raised on a lot of folk and singer/songwriter stuff by my dad. I'm into a lot of contemporary forebearers of that now. I like pretty much everything (from rap to pop to a heay emphasis on classic rock)...but often get tired of manufactured stuff. I think I often lean to country but am constantly depressed by the manufactured sound out of nashville and country stations. I do like that there's the occasional exception of actual guitar work and vocals in there, though. Perhaps thats why I lean to it...sometimes theres a pretense, at least, of bluegrass and other basic sounds coming from country.

Ha...I don't make much sense..stream of thought all wonky.
