[Red Lion]

It's definitely a physical response for me and not an emotional one, how much I like the music has no influence whatsoever it's just that anything on the grind/screech-ish sound level makes my ears ring and my head hurt, it's almost exactly the same as my reaction to heights, that feeling of being really off balance. I can be enjoying the music and then suddenly just feel like my whole biorhythm has been knocked out of sync. With really screechy grindy songs the effect is instantaneous.

I don't know if that's so weird, I don't like those sounds much either, they don't make me angry or upset but they will get on my nerves. At worst I find those things mildy annoying to intolerable depending on the situation and how I'm feeling that day, I think my least favorite annoyance noise is when someone makes that sound where they make a "Pop" by sucking their lips in and releasing them. Once or twice won't bother me but repeating the noise consistently is just obnoxious enough that I want to yell at the person to knock it off before I come over there and smack them.
