Writing off music without ever listening to it is being close-minded. Listening to it and forming an opinion is not being close-minded. See the difference?
How many people here would honestly sit down and listen to a jpop record from beginning to end, even if a lot of trustworthy good-taste-having people would reccomend it to you? Pretty much none of the board. "Duh, it's pop and bright and happy fuck dat shit fuck dat." No interest whatsoever. I actually sit down, listen to a song or two by an interest, and then form an opinion about them before I reply to threads. It's something I do.
Besides, I already said.. you actually listened to them. So, you have your opinions. That's great. I wasn't even referring to you in my post anyway.
