I disagree. Year could be ok I guess but genre tags sometimes discourage folks from clicking on something they otherwise would if it’s not immediately appealing to them. Sometimes less context is best context.
I think people have the right to choose if they want to listen to something within their comfort zone or not. People have a generally good idea of what they like and don’t like, and it’s very reasonable for people to want to discover new music within genres they are familiar with.
You’re making some assumptions about how people operate that I’m not sure I agree with. But maybe you can make a different community - genre-specific or something. Or just live dangerously and click the genre-less links.
