For the last 7 months, I've pretty much isolated my music tastes to Nine Inch Nails. Trent Reznor is such a genius. My favorite album is The Downward Spiral, followed by Pretty Hate Machine. Is it normal to isolate your music tastes to one specific band?
I find myself doing the same thing, but with movies and TV shows since those are what I like to obsess over. It's OK to have favorites, but when you exclude all other possibilities, you are really missing out on some great stuff. There's always new obsessions waiting to be discovered, and when you find them, you can add them to the ones you already have. That's how people develop diverse tastes in things.
Sometimes you just get obsessed with one thing for awhile. Its called a phase. No biggie. I do the same thing with movies, or books. I watch/read them over and over.
I find myself doing that a lot too. Lately it's been ELO, at least most people know who NIN are.
I think it's perfectly normal. I found myself doing tha twice. one with Prozzak, and again with Three Days Grace
I do that sometimes but with genres, not one single band. Doesn't last that long either.
I did this exact same thing! i just discovered NIN earlier this year and I became obsessed. in the course of three weeks i went from only knowing Closer to buying every single one of their albums. i couldn't listen to anything else for a couple of months. trent is an amazing artist and lyricist. Downward Spiral is the soundtrack of my life!
Nine Inch Nails is a great band, but there is so much more great music out there too. In my opinion, obsessing about a band is perfectly normal but by limiting yourself to listening to just one band you are missing out. I am always striving to discover new(and old) awesome rock music to listen to.
