This is the less-detailed, overview graph of everything we listened to in 2009. The resolution is 1439x788; about 1 megapixel, versus the 27.7 megapixel detail graph.

Basically, the Top 15 bands I listened to in 2009 are graphed at 2 week intervals, and normalized so the shape is approximately rectangular. I then hand-edited the labels to make them easier to read.

Most of our music habits were influenced by the 10 shows bands we saw in 2009, and you can actually correlate the graph with the dates of the shows we went to. When we get tickets for a concert, we throw that band's discography into our playlists until the concert. When the concert is over, it comes out of the playlist. This is very visible on the graph.

Major concerts this year included:
Kreator
Nine Inch Nails/Jane's Addiction
The Church
KMFDM
Pixies

And yes, I realize that all 5 of those concerts are pretty much completely different genres. [The closest 2 bands are KMFDM and NIN.]

P.S. Forgive the January discontinuity; a Winamp upgrade made my www.last.fm/user/ClintJCL plugin stop working, and I had to start using their 3rd party utility to log my tracks. It took me 2-4 weeks to notice I wasn't logging my songs.
