I hate the term "get it", when it comes to musical tastes. It makes it seem like if only there were some other piece of information or change in our attitude, and we would also acquire this most vague acquisition.
What is this "it" people speak of, when I complain that the noise band is a load of crap and the fans proclaim "well, you just don't get it." It's almost as vague as the terms people use to describe sound.
I'm here to so, there is no "it", nothing to get, you like it or you don't, and if you end up liking it later, well you didn't all of a sudden get it, you just changed your mind, or it took a while to sink in. Some things aren't as accessible as others, but some things are near indigestible.
