I think when some people find a new style of music they can tend to go head first and mad into it for a while. I've certainly done that a few times. I think if people are really passionate about music as opposed to an image that may be attached to that sound or scene then you'll find aspects of all music interesting and enjoyable.

Having a diverse interest in music informs your broad understanding and develops deeper understanding of it.

for the record: when i'm at a karaoke box

it's always The Clash
