Now playing: Possessed by Satyricon from Volcano
(They call this genre Black Metal)
"Defaming judgement
upon the starving souls
mourning self-made pestilence
Cannon fodder for the

Going away from mainstream will certainly shake things up. You don't have to listen to metal, but you should at least avoid anything that "everyone else" listens to according to marketing.
Go to
Jamendo : Home and get some music with foreign lyrics. At least you wont understand anything... I've found some really nice stuff from that site.
