Im not overly nuts about most of it. I agree the screamng part is not a pleasant sound.
I might say Metalica might be above the crowd in the metal world. They are pretty good. At least it's all music. Just a different taste. Junk like rap and hippity hoppity is not.
I might also add Judist Priest as real good. Some consider Guns N Roses metal. I dont. If Guns N Roses were to release their first album in 1975 rather then the 90s it would have been just as big a platnum sales record, maybe more. Kiss is metal but are pretty good.
Lol.. I think there are a lot of sub-genres to Metal and if you like music you will def find some Metal worthy of listening to :-) Try Alt-Metal or Nu-Metal it's not too bad!
Screeching electric-type guitar picking, and screaming, sometimes anger-laced (almost always unintelligible) lyrics.
Purely high decibel noise which serves only to incite bedlam and deafen a healthy pair of ears, in my opinion
Anyone else want to come out of the square closet?
I'll join you outside the closet, Mortimor.
All the metal fans can't be crazy (ok could they be? lol) so I guess people like us just stay away from the genre and form our opinion based on a small sampling of music.
Metal - Acid, not for me.
But, I love Led Zeppelin & The Who so it's not a question of noise.
Thanks, FlaGrrrl. I listened to a few minutes of "Numb" and it's not bad at all.
That's why I never say I hate/dislike an entire genre of music because there are always exceptions. I'm not really a fan of Rap music either BUT I do like some and I even enjoy a few of Eminem's songs.
I do think people tend to prefer & stick to the music that was most popular when they were growing up & young adults.
Have a kid & I think you automatically turn into your parents & start thinking to yourself when you hear your kids' music choices, "You call THAT music?!" lol
