@Gabe, I think it's really an acquired taste. You either love it, you hate it, or you get bored of it after a while.
I would probably be the final choice, where I like it for a little but it gets boring. |

it's better than a lot of genres, but I feel it's kind of overrated rarely does a blues song ever go out of the twelve bar blues progression the lyrics can generally follow the same theme the only thing that can be interesting in it jamming and improvision |

| @civilization, "overrated"? I wouldn't say that. It's not popular enough to be called overrated. |
