And therein lies reason enough to know music theory.
I was not saying that Confessor was bad or too technical. I fucking love that band. Steve Shelton is one of the greatest drummers of all time. To be a dick again, I would say that knowledge of music theory has ZERO to do with enjoying/listening to music. Nothing at all. Whether or not you enjoy/appreciate a piece of music should have no bearing at all on what you know about music theory.
