Whenever I listen to a song by a band I'm checking up on, I usually zone in on the vocalist. About 95% of the bands I listen to have a male vocalist and there's a certain tone that appeals to me. If the tone is too nasally, high, or bland, then I get turned off. Don't get me wrong; I listen to the music as well, ahahaha. For example, Kra's 'Mutaku to mutaku to' or however the hell you spell it . . . . I wasn't really fond of the vocalist, but I really dug the music.
If the music is catchy and has a certain 'something', then I just listen to it however much I want. I'm not one for technical proficiency, either . . . because I don't know anything about music composition and such. But of course, that doesn't prevent anyone from enjoying what they like . . . right?
As for songs I don't like . . . . it would have to be if the song doesn't seem like it's going anywhere and it makes me lose attention to it. So if a song makes me zone out of it instead of into it, then that's not a good sign. Also, some factors in the song that annoy me . . . like, using repetitive parts waaaaaaaay too much or sounds equivalent to 'nails on a chalkboard' kind of thing.
