When I was in grade school (I won't say when) I got into 80's rock/metal, especially Poison, Mötley Crüe, Aerosmith, etc. Later on I got into Guns 'N Roses a little bit and discovered Phantom Of The Opera. I tried to enjoy other musics that were going around but I just couldn't get into much of it. At the end of high school I ditched metal altogether for punk rock. I didn't actually like to listen punk rock that much, but I liked the culture around it, and it made me feel one with the culture to listen to it, so I did. And in my local punk scene you couldn't be a punk and a metal-head at the same time, so I chose punk rock. In the band I played in (because if you're a real punk you have to be in a band) we even did a song making fun of metal… which was actually really fun to play…
While many punks certainly took exception to it, our punk scene mostly opened its arms to the rave scene, including trance, house, etc. I had always been a fan of what keyboards and electronics could do in music…
