Ariel Pink's Haunted Grafitti, "Round and Round"

This song, to say in short, was not my type of song. While I can understand why a person could like it, I myself cared very little for it. The intensity and volume of the instruments raised and lowered many times, making it hard to follow. It also frustrated me that I could not understand the lead singer's muffled lyrics. To me they were a musical blur which detracted from the decent instrumental sounds in the song. These threw me for a loop, especially the first thing, thus developing my bias to this song in its early stages. The change that it created I did not like, yet I know that the change is not the only reason for my disliking of "Round and Round," I strongly believe that I just do not enjoy that genre of music. When the song ended, I was relieved to get away from it because of how annoying and inartistic I found it to be. Most likely, because of my experience with this song I will be subconsciously biased towards not just this particular song but also the genre that it is.
