Metal; anyone listen to this?

Thu Aug 24, 2006 8:04 pm

I'm not much of a metal fan, but I do listen to the odd tidbits now and then.

Personally, I prefer Black & Death metal; and perhaps a bit of heavy metal every now and then.

My favourite metal/BM/DM bands have to be:

Black Sabbath,
Led Zepp,
Mayhem,
Gorgoroth,
Burzum,
Amon Amarth,
Akercocke,
Deicide,
Norther,
Venom,
Finntroll,
Carcass,
Endstille,
Darkthrone,
Bilskirnir,
Metallica,
Iron Maiden,
In Flames.

What about you?

Can't stand the stuff... esp. death metal argh! Makes me feel like crashing into a tree.

Okay, I admit it, I am a self-confessed metalhead. I'm more into the classic thrash stuff though; the only bands on your list I consistently listen to are Maiden, Metallica and Sabbath. I occasionally go for black & death metal too but I'm not a big enough fan of it to identify all of the bands on your list. Stuff like Megadeth, Anthrax and Overkill are more my speed.

Old school in the hizz-ouse.

Classicaly metal.. oh the irony of it all!

Yeah, depending on my mood I can be into metal - love it... although I must say that it's not the only music type I like.

I listen to metal, mostly Thrash and Death. I can't stand Power metal though. My favorite band is Metallica, and I was lucky enough to meet them a few months ago. :D

Thanks Yukio - but if you other guys don't like it - just refresh ;)

Anyhow, back on topic - I'm a mega kerrang and MTV2 fan... if there's no real tv to be had - I shall have either of them.

I personally prefer Scuzz to Kerrang.

In regard to Iron maiden and the like I present this.

[Iron] Maiden are the musical equivalent of the war vet who demands you give up your bus seat 'because I was in the war'.
Maiden were pioneers, and have inspired a number of subsequent bands; but they've done nothing except try to relive past glories for a good few years now. They're in danger of becoming a rock novelty act.
(See 'Fade Away, Better to burn out than')



And yeah, I prefere Scuzz too, theyre both horrendous for playing utter garbage, but Scuzz has the funky Barbed wire thing, and they tend to play more of what I like aswell.

Circle Of Dead Children is a pretty intense band.

Maiden's tunes still work, at least in my books; they still have a huge fanbase.

Scuzz ocasionally plays rubbish too, Scuzz: "home of metal", was playing emo music. ugh.

Roadrunner. :D That reminded me of Facedown Records for no apparent reason. XD
Comeback Kid = awesome.
