a sustained, simplistic, and lingering blues influence paired with a raw, gritty style and good riff work, plus a large number of unrecognized classics like stormbringer, lady double dealer, speed king, and black night will keep your interest for a little while until you suddenly "get over it", briefly become interested in EXTREMELY seventies-period white druggie blues like tommy bolin's private eyes album and atomic rooster's Death Walks Behind You, at which point you will either to continue to fixate on blues/rock and end up with a love of contemporary blues-(ish) artists like Jackie Green and, possibly Clutch if you also veer into Thin Lizzy/lynyrd skynyrd/molly hatchet territory; or you will enact a personal rebellion and reject the blues harder than a Pat boone fan hating on thelonius monk and further develop your love for shit contemporary like the White Stripes, Modest Mouse, and Coldplay, possibly stumbling onto decent Art-pop bands like Trotsky icepick and pride yourself on "discovering" them
