hi im new, i was just curious is anyone here listens to metal?

Currently,

my favorite band , at least this week would have to be "Hellyeah"

okay...that was supposed to be:

"I was just curious, does anyone listen to metal?"

yeah sorry. im tired.

depends if im pissed off

I listen to some metal... I'm into punk more than anything, but I dabble in thrash, black and death for something different.

i listen to all types of metal...but i love my metallica and def leppard. i know they arent metal but they were part of the heavy metal craze.

well if you consider epica metal yeah

how metal should this metal be to be considered metal?

every once in a while, i like to hear the sound of aluminum foil. although occasionally i like to run in to a steel support beam, it makes a sweet smooth low tone.

seriously though, i guess i listen to metal, and all sorts of related, loosely or closely, things. lol actually, and i'm not sure how this will make me look in your eyes, i've been looping the dethklok album lately. but i also have some atreyu, fear factory, rammstein, and sins of thy beloved in the mix.

i think not all people have the same idea when they say metal. i tend to prefer the less brutal and more melodic, possibly symphonic, with a twist of industrial, hopefully female fronted metal. xandria, within temptation, theatre of tragedy, stream of passion, after forever and such. if you can tell, i love arjen's stuff like ambeon, ayreon, and star one as well.

GO INTO THE WATER FRECKLS.

Do the Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Queensryche, Dokken count as metal? They use to. Would they be considered 80's hair bands?

haha

oh and my actual favorite band of all time is depeche mode. actually, shiny toy guns just played in gainesville a few days ago, and when we cheered them on to come back on stage for encore they played 'stripped' and i wet myself almost literally.

hellyeah is gonna be in austin, texas in coupla weeks--may be going there--
