This a bit too abrasive?

I like this sort of stuff a lot. Gets the adrenaline pumping a bit, although I also like a lot of the softer stuff too.

Sounds too generic and plastic to me.

I'm hard to please what concerns music recommendations.

I have been fortunate I haven't damaged my hearing over the years.
I usually listen to music at about 135db when out walking, have blown 3-4 sets of speakers in my teens and
even caused a set of headphones to nearly catch fire while using them.
I kept turning them up until they started smoking and popped but then again I had the hooked up to the speaker
jacks on a 120w stereo.
The AC/DC concert I went to in 86' left my ears ringing for 3 hours! :D

music with sustained sound pressure levels of 1 acoustic watt or above [in the vicinity of the listener, approximately 110 db], for any period longer than an hour. music or musical noise with prominent ultrasonic/infrasonic content will do the most damage in the shortest time.
