heavy metal...lol

[CountryWolf07]

I'm not a metal fan, but my boyfriend is. I'm more on the country/rock side.

[Alysser]

I love A Day to Remember, but I am way more into country/rock too.

Thanks for making me feel REALLY ancient. I never heard of any of these bands!

When I think heavy metal - what comes to mind is Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osborne, Metallica, etc., tho I never liked HM anyway. I got bombarded with it from my son when he was growing up (and still do), and now the grandkids too.

I'll take soft rock, folk, etc. I like to be able to actually hear the lyrics that are being sung, and not a bunch of noisy, blaring instruments............

Now bring on Josh Groban or Susan Boyle any day!!!!

You listen to the deathcore junk. I don't much like that.

I listen to more power metal/nu metal. Bands that actually require vocal talent instead of just screaming into a microphone. Bands like these:

Hammerfall
Disturbed
Manowar
Edguy
Helloween
Five Finger Death Punch
Queensryche
Sonata Artica
Alestorm (pirate metal, lol)

And then there's the older bands I listen to:

Metallica
Ozzy Osbourne
Iron Maiden
Anthrax

deathcore isn't junk! screaming actually requires a lot more talent than you think. it requires a lot of concentration to know when to inhale & exhale to make certain noises & whatnot. think about it. those guys scream all the time & never lose their voice. can you do that?
a lot of the bands i listen to don't scream all the time either. they sing regularly during the choruses of their songs, or they do a whole song with no screaming.
deathcore isn't the only thing i listen to anyway. i like disturbed & five finger death punch . i also love metallica & ozzy.
i have a wide range of musical interests. i can go from katy perry & lady gaga, to metallica & ozzy, to winds of plague & suicide silence lol.

Although I meant "junk" in a more sarcastic manner, I still don't like it :P. I've been able to do the scream voice in the past, but not without losing my voice, no. It's not quite natural behavior of your vocal cords to do what they do.

I listen to most any kind of music aside from rap, but metal is my favorite of them all.

I'm in SF and know the Metallica guys. They live near me and though I'm not a metal head...far from..they are great guys. Lars shops at my store every so often and we chat about stuff. Smart guys though again..couldn't name a song off the top of my head. LOL. I'm a pop sort of girl and WAY beyond 18! LOL!

OMG I can't believe you know them - that is so cool!! Metallica is my favourite band. I hope they tour in Vancouver again soon! They've been overseas for a long time on the same tour I saw them at a few years ago.

Metallica is probably either the second or third most famous metal band in the world.

Im a fan of The Big 4 from the 80s, and they are all still performing. Anthrax is still my favorite band. I liked early Metallica when Cliff Burton and Dave Mustane influenced the band, their last album has great promise.

Some others of note...

Exodus
Nuclear Assault
Deicide
GWAR/X-Cops
Biohazard
Napalm Death
Overkill
Sacred Reich
Obituary
Fear Factory
Pantera
Metal Church
ETA: Stormtroopers of Death (SOD)
Method of Destruction (MOD)
DRI


Im missing a bunch, my music hard drive may have died so I cant check.



Does Clutch count as metal?

Oh yeah Iron Maiden, Up the Irons!!!
