That band you fear you will never get into

   I say fear, because its not like you dont have any interest in getting into it, you do, you want to...but somehow you cant. This music, this band you want to get into and cant must have something for you to want to understand and appretiate, something that atracts you... cause if you hate punk, and want to get into Sex Pistols...well, this is a bit mezmerising. But if you read or hear a lot of good things about this band, you become interested...and yet, the result is something your ears cant bare.
I have that porblem with Meshuggah...specially cause I is held so high as one of the best compositions heavy metal has to offer. But then I listen to the sample songs from PA...and no, I dont like it, and I think I wont for a very long time, if ever! But you see, this is not the first time I had problems with a band. I used to hate grwing, and not understand why a band with this type of singing gets so many compliments...but I persisted, and now Opeth is pretty much my favorite prog metal band. But this is different, here there is nothing I like, no matter how much I want to...

Has this ever happend to anybody? Im pretty sure there must be a lot of people in the same situation.
