This might come to a surprise to you, but YES, I actually LISTEN to them. Having said that, I am also deep into the visuals of things esp in the Ks......for example, if I'm looking for a good new band, I tend to 'study' the artwork of their album(s) to see if it's worthwhile, on the basis of MY personal tastes, to actually follow that band or not.........90% of the time, if I dig the artwork, I also end up digging the contents as well....of course the merit is NOT mine, but of people who do the artwork on the albums:):)
