yup except I got into Illbient stuff majorly and Dub / Jungle and left the
*industrial* stuff behind(unless it's the old guys like RHK/Key/Marcus&Christie
etc.) I try to like the new industrial stuff but it doesn't jive with me any
more...mostly I can't stand the vocals/lyrics.
I'm 26 with about the same amount of CD's etc,. I generally like
cluttered/groovy/dark/layered moody stuff perferably with no vocals for the
most part,
loadsa bass and percussion..but I have my quiet genleter Ae/FSOL times ;-)
