    Default whats your favorite mettal?

    the death metal thread got me thinking dang theres a lot of metal out there, so whats your favorite kind of metal, give a band example and a vid link if you can.
    personally i dig thrash metal. and a thrash metal band that doesn't get enough credit is overkill.

    Metal in the veins of Strapping Young Lad and Machine Head. It's hard to define, but it's very, very heavy.

    I know. But today, they do fall into the Metal genre. Zeppelin is also been classified as metal, if you can believe it.

    Does anyone know who's mother puts music in these classes???

    What? stainless steel just sucks; you could be listening to galvanized high carbon steel if you'd spend a little more.

    The main difference between hard rock and metal is the scales commonly used and the lyrical themes, it's the difference between Van Halen and Iron Maiden. I don't think Zeppelin can be called metal, a few of their songs maybe, but not the whole band.

    Recently I've been listening to a lot of Disciple. They are really good and I like music that has the whole package. Something that's both excellent musically and that's actually saying something with the lyrics.
    For me it has to be both, I won't be satisfied with a band only good in one area.
    Guess I'm just picky about that! Haha.
    In truth, Rock music is the most pure and honest art form ever born.

    Hmm... i like metalcore, viking metal, death metal and thrash... maybe a bit of black metal or grindcore if i'm feeling EXTREEEEEEMMEE

    Fav bands: Slayer, Exodus, Lamb of God, Cradle of Filth, Behemoth, Soilwork and Turisas
    crazydrummer: Metal sounds like someone is rampaging through a pig pen with a machine gun....

    Shazane: They are firing that machine gun at a perfect 380 BPM in 7/8, while the agonized screams of the pigs are flawlessly harmonizing arpeggios at 20 notes per second.

    I dig thrash/speed metal. Can't go wrong with Slayer, Anthrax, SOD and the older Metallica.
    I like bits and pieces of death and black metal. Most of it is too monotonous for me. Good, but monotonous.
    I really dig more of the grindcore, grindgore, metalcore and similar stuff as they have elements of most forms of metal and change things up quite a bit.

    It's nice, but I like aluminum as it's lighter weight and looks good in any finish. Stainless is a bit to much when polished.
    This is actually what I thought the thread was about.

    So don't listen to the gothic stuff. It's lame anyways.

    Accept????? My favorite is Breaker. I used to have Restless and Wild and Metal Heart on vinyl. I recently ITuned Breaker. Just had to have it now!

    Testament, I've heard of them. Their guitarist was Alex Scholnick. I used to read his articles in Guitar For the Practicing Musician. Thanks. I should maybe ITune them!
