Being a Musical Connoisseur

Having a 120 GB iPod has motivated me to download all types of music so I can truly represent the title and position of Musical Connoisseur. 120 GB iPod equals 30,000 songs. I only have about 6, 389 songs... not even a third of my new iPod's capacity, har har har. 

The main musical focus, at the moment, is... do I really like Mastodon? Do I like this band enough to get their new record, Blood Mountain for cheap and then follow in with their second record Leviathan? 

Leviathan is clearly based on Herman Melville's Moby Dick so that is an immediate point of interest. I have a fascination with the novel and it's characters but would this be overkill? I think not. After all, I am trying to be a Musical Connoisseur. Also, let's not forget, for me, my ideal apartment needs a wall devoted strictly to music... CD player, a record player and all my CDs neatly stacked and organized. 

I'm willing to settle for a small wall in a bedroom of an apartment I'll be sharing since I can't seem to afford a one bedroom apartment in Brooklyn at the moment. 

WOOOOOOO!
