Individual's Music preferences
Wednesday, August 24, 2005

I am a devoted believer of, "no one in this world share the exact preferences in the music they listen to". Though, in many cases, it might be similar, but the feelings, meanings, understandings, and energies one received from the music should be unique to him/herself..

Music is such a subjective mean as to human's entertainment input... Its variation is as sophisticated as how a human being would be, from a gentle soft touch of ballard, to reckless core of heavy metal, from sacred chants and worships of church songs to uther darkness of Death metal, from simplistic raw percussions to highway personality of jazz.. Just like human and human's life, music is endless and unlimited.

Without a doubt, music could be argued as part of human's creation, but by looking at how it has been evolved since ancient time, from simple wood hitting, coconuts banging, metal striking, bamboo blowing, to the implementation of modern instruments, and how people dedicated their lives to the occurrence of "their" types of music (regardless to intention of making it), you sometimes wonder, whether the people choose their own kind of music, or the music is waiting for the chosen ones to discover and perform them.

Getting rather philosophical aight? Anyway, to cut the crap short, music is unique and never identical to human in their own experiences. A general catogerization of music is needed.. just to ease the process for us to refer to music range, however, one shall not specifically judge a certain kind of music as a "type"
Like human, you shouldnt be stereotypical towards music, as, even rock bands produces strong and good ballads, even church bands produces heavy metal-like church songs.. Music is as volatile and versatile as an amoeba.. one shall not lay their judgment into it, until you fully experience it both as the audience and the performer

Enough babbling on my random thoughts on music, it's time to reveal what kind of music i "truly" listen to since the day i arrived this world, and also i would like to pay some respects to music creators that produce wonderful songs and lyrics after my birth. So, here's the listing of notable rock albums regardless of the specific genres to my preference(as categorized by timeframe, without any particular order in preferrence, like i said, i cant possibly rank them, that's no valid measurement for that)
