What are your thoughts on metal music and all the variants like death & black? I personally think this is the worst genre in music and should be eradicated from the earth. I really love country so maybe im being subjective. Interested to hear your thoughts.
Just because you disagree with someone doesn't mean they're wrong. Is it my music genre of choice? No. Just because I don't enjoy the music whatsoever does not mean that it should never exist. Plenty of people do, and who are we to tell them that they are wrong. My personal thoughts are that it's alright, wouldn't really go out of my way to listen to it though.
Besides the obvious troll baiting in this thread, metal music is the most diverse genre with the most loyal and die-hard fans. I enjoy death, thrash, speed, stoner, blues, and many of the 'cores'. Metal is not for everyone, but it is a very accessible and accepting genre where if someone is looking they can generally find something they like. New country is tantamount to the same mass market pop trash played on teen radio the world over in that it has lost all roots to the real music and is nothing but a marketing ploy to rake in money. Classic country is where it is at.
i like some metal but mainly just pleb surface of the water type stuff. Big fan of the entire Megadeth discography. I also like Tool a lot, Protest the Hero, metallica, some Burzum, etc. just whatever catches my ear
It's a rather diverse genre, that reaches out and blends with other genres so beautifully. I really enjoy it.
I'm not the biggest fan, but there was a time I was really into alternative music, which made me expand to genres, such as metal. To say the least, I enjoy few metal songs.
Its hard to get into if your not part of that lifestyle IMO. But regardless, I'm a fan of smooth music like micheal buble, so no metal for me.
I don't like it, as I only listen to opera and classical, but I don't feel it should be eradicated from the earth. Everyone has a different taste, and is not forced to listen to any genre they dislike
My girls brother opened my eyes to metal and its different genres back in 2010. Took a lot of getting used to but its my favorite music now. Ever since i cant stand listening to the radio or the teen pop shit shit splattered everywhere. I legit spend half the car rides between my music and my girls music. I spend her share of music time making fun of it lol.
Metal is horrible only emo goat screaming you can't relate to at all and words you cant even comprehend. Makes my ear bleed, satans music.
Midway through a metal song I get the urge to stab my eardrums. The genre does have a diehard fan base without a doubt.
This. You of all people should know there is plenty of GREAT country coming out right now! Hell country is actually some of the only music I would say isn't stagnating into complete monotony. Granted we aren't talking clear channel commercial bro country bullshit. Back OT. I fucking love metal, I'd say "metal" is the absolute broadest base genre THERE IS. Not implying the people who are claiming they dislike would change their minds regardless but I can say with 100% confidence you haven't even scratched the surface of the genre.. let alone the dozens of legitimate sub-genres.
I'm a fan of alternative rock/heavy rock, so a little bit of screaming isn't that bad. But when the whole damn song is screaming 24/7 I can't be bothered. Examples of heavy rock bands that incorporate a bit of screaming, but not too much: A Day to Remember Bullet for my valentine
Both of those are alright bands Ronaldo, but I love screaming! LOVE IT!!!! Cradle of Filth is my all time favorite, as far as screaming goes. I swear that Dani Filth can screech high enough to break class and growl low enough to make you shit your pants! lmao It all depends though... my mother likes some of the musical parts, but hates the vocals simply because she can't understand what they're screaming. I wrote out some cradle lyrics once and she said it was beautiful and asked if I wrote it... I turned on the song and she couldn't believe her ears haha This isn't my absolute favorite cradle song, but it's one of the most popular... Maybe this video will convert some screaming-til-your-eyes-bleed-haters. lmao Spoiler: Lyrics for those who cannot understand the beauty that is Dani's voice "The Moon, she hangs like a cruel portrait Soft winds whisper the bidding of trees As this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart And the Midnightmare trampling of dreams But oh, no tears please Though fear and pain may accompany Death But it is desire that shepherds it's certainty As We shall see..." She was divinity's creature That kissed in cold mirrors A Queen of Snow Far beyond compare Lips attuned to symmetry Sought Her everywhere Dark liqoured eyes An Arabian nightmare... She shone on watercolours Of my pondlife as pearl Until those who couldn't have Her Cut Her free of this World That fateful Eve when... The trees stank of sunset and camphor Their lanterns chased phantoms and threw An inquisitive glance, like the shadows they cast On my love picking rue by the light of the moon Putting reason to flight Or to death as their way They crept through woods mesmerized By the taffeta Ley Of Her hips that held sway Over all they surveyed Save a mist on the rise A deadly blessing to hide Her ghost in the fog They raped left... (Five men of God) ...Her ghost in the fog Dawn discovered Her there Beneath the Cedar's stare Silk dress torn, Her raven hair Flown to gown Her beauty bared Was starred with frost, I knew Her lost I wept 'til tears crept back to prayer She'd sworn Me vows in fragrant blood "Never to part Lest jealous Heaven stole our hearts" Then this I screamed: "Come back to Me for I was born in love with thee So why should fate stand in between?" And as I drowned Her gentle curves With dreams unsaid and final words I espied a gleam trodden to earth The Church bell tower key... The village mourned her by the by For She'd been a witch Their Men had longed to try And I broke under Christ seeking guilty signs My tortured soul on ice A Queen of snow Far beyond compare Lips attuned to symmetry Sought Her everywhere Trappistine eyes An Arabian nightmare... She was Ersulie possessed Of a milky white skin My porcelain Yin A graceful Angel of Sin And so for Her... The breeze stank of sunset and camphor My lantern chased Her phantom and blew Their Chapel ablaze and all locked in to a pain Best reserved for judgement that their bible construed... Putting reason to flight Or to flame unashamed I swept form cries Mesmerized By the taffeta Ley Or Her hips that held sway Over all those at bay Save a mist on the rise A final blessing to hide Her ghost in the fog And I embraced Where lovers rot... Her ghost in the fog Her ghost in the fog
