Yeah, sorta. I think because I played piano, and guitar at around that time I had an understanding of the skill level required to play metal tracks. Those drummers? Bassists? Vocalists? Guitarists? Are all super talented, it's not all loud noises and screaming. When you watch the skill required from them to play that style, you start to appreciate the skill of the artist. Then if you appreciate an artists talent, it's kinda foolish to ignore it anywhere else. I may not understand hip-hop as an example, but the ability to flow in that manner, I mean I get tongue tied making a coffee order. Once you spot talent, you can't help but notice it everywhere and that's awesome to experience things you wouldn't otherwise have been able to appreciate as much.
