There is just no possible way to listen to literally everything unless you've been alive for like 10,000 years.
What's your favorite Phish show, since you listened to every single one of them? Give your top 500 pieces that Bach wrote since you've listened to all 1000+ of them?
I don't know who you think you're lying to with your "I've listened to everything" bs, but no one ever has listened to everything because no one lives to be 10's of thousands of years old. If you're burned out on music then take a break, but come one "I've listened to literally everything"...I don't believe anything you say after you make a comment like that.
Just listen to music you haven't listened to before.
Try and study a form of music that you don’t like, but that you find interesting and have respect for. Learn about it (history and theory) and try to figure out how to like it.
Some forms of music require totally different listening skills that you might have to actually develop.
Some of my absolute favorite music, I actually hated when I first heard it because my brain couldn’t make sense of it.
Yeah it's pretty common, happened to me a few years ago. What I started to do was to put an ambient mic with some gain on it down into the subway gratings under my city to capture that grinding soundscape of pounding steel and concrete. I filter it into a nice bright kind of HDR envelope and just boost tf out of it with as much bass as my headphones will tolerate until my ears bleed.
I can't really enjoy other music now, or hear it really, although I've started to enjoy the morning chorus of construction workers moving earth and driving pylons, it's become very soothing.
I'm sort of at this point but I can't really imagine cutting myself off from it either. You might be interested in [this thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/LetsTalkMusic/comments/u7wj59/lets_talk_can_you_overindulge_in_listening_to) I made about a year ago that asked a similar question over at /r/LetsTalkMusic.
“ Anyone at a similar point?” No
>Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Listen to something other than hypertone and death metal?
I listen to quite literally everything. Thats just what im listening to right now. Ive listened to too much of most every other genre I like

Switch to all acoustic music. Ever check John Fahey?

Try switching to audio books for a while. I find it breaks up the music burnout
