If you feel the need to reinvent yourself, I would instead recommend that you search for a new perspective. A new perspective is far more beneficial than a reinvention.

We all could. What is your problem? Do you feel that you coud enjoy music more, or that you could enjoy more music?

I can't be perfect... life itself would lose a little of its essence if we could be perfect. There has to be constant betterment and I feel I could be doing better in music.

I've been thinking about this again so rather than starting a new threadI'll bring this one back.

I don't think I have found a great deal of change in the past few months. Still... I have a feeling I am doing something wrong. I should be finding new ways to develop yet I feel I am remaining static within music.

So perhaps I should reinvent myself again?

Will do. The most I have been into hip-hop was between 2008-2009. Although even then I only ventured into Eminem, Cypress Hill, Kanye West, Nas, Sole, Jay-Z and The Notorious B.I.G.. While I still have many of the albums, the line went dead somewhere in 2011 and since then I have none of the mentioned on my mp3 or occupying my CD player.

Thanks for the support but I want to be different. I want to try make myself new somehow.

How would I be perfect in the musical sense right now? I tend to be on the chaotic side and lots of users have much more harmony between the albums in adjacent posistions. They seem more natural whereas mine looks nothing like them. There is a definite room for improvement somewhere.

I have tried 3 albums per artist at my lowest but found the entries between 91-100 were albums I wasn't listening to a month or two afterwards.

I am always looking for new artists I can say I like more 4 albums from. I like having favorite artists like that. Although I have been looking at artists with little albums lately following Japandroids becoming one of my favorite artists ever. These ones include Metz, Cloud Nothings, Big Troubles and No Age. Even Titus Andronicus and The Hold Steady who I haven't been big on in the past I have started to appreciate more now. I would love any recomendations of artists or bands which sound simular to the ones I have mentioned in this paragraph.

I mean, I haven't been around so long so I really can't make the best judgement, but I enjoy your forum presence and how you uphold yourself and your music, I think you're just fine as you are.

Stick with what you know and love. How can you truly rate anything else?

Not a reccomendation, but I found limiting my chart to 2 albums per artist to be very therapeutic. I was able to see how so many albums I adored by were overshadowed by some obvious choices.

Your chart is very heavily Manic Street Preachers - perhaps try a limit. It creates a level playing field for any other artist and I've found I appreciate other artists much more since.

I agree with this. I remember when I was like 8 Beatles albums on my chart, I felt like I had to have them there because I was still chasing some kind of objectivity back then... I take the chart less seriously now, I think, and it's just a much better time.

But yeah, no worries, you're fine!

You let Chairlift and Fun into your world. I'm not sure if that's a good thing 😄 It does show that you're not locked in a box however.
