Now everyone knows that heavy metal music has a ton of subgenres, but which one is your favorite? Also you can talk about anything metal related such as a new band you discovered, music videos, an album you own, what you like/dislike about metal, etc, etc...

However Heavy Metal!
Do you mean hardcore punk or extreme metal? Extreme metal genres are doom, death, black and thrash, these are subgenres of metal that are considered more hardcore than your typical heavy metal.

Yous sound like Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister.
It's just overthinking something as simple as metal. Anything that makes me bang my head is good enough for me.
Me being compared to Lemmy? I am touched!
Well Lemmy never considered Motorhead a metal band he always classified the band as good ole "Rock n' Roll". When asked if he has a problem with Motörhead being called a metal band, he replied: "I do, because I come from way
before Metal. I’m playing Rock n’ Roll and I think Rock n’ Roll should be sacred – it is to me. I don’t see why it should not be for everybody else." Yeah I agree for something as aggressive and simple as metal it has a ridiculous amount of
subgenres, oh well it gives you something to poke fun at, at least. Plus once you familiar with the different styles of metal it's not to hard to distinguish one type from another.
Thrash all the way! Speaking of which, anyone else going to the Big Four live theater broadcast concert on the 22nd? It's going to be possibly the greatest metal concert of all time. OF ALL TIME!!! (but Kanye jokes aside, it really will be mind blowing...)

Where are Thrash's big four playeing?
I heard they were all going to be at sonisphere in august.
I voted thrash although i agree with the sentiment of anything that i'll bang my head to.
Multi-chioce would have been good too.

Expect my posts to have a bazillion edits. I miss out letters, words, sometimes even entire sentences in my points and posts.
I'm not sure whether Fintroll and Enseferum count as Viking Metal or Folk metal, but they are two amazingly awesome bands. Look 'em up!
I would've liked an option of 'Death-Viking-Folk-metal', but I just settled on folk. Anything I can headbang to will suit me though, as long as it's HARDCORE (and not Iron Maiden. Preparing for barrage of insults and hate mail for that).
P.S: Also, Meshuggah is pretty freaking hardcore. Check 'em out!
Hmm no setting for gothic? I suppose its classed with the fusion or somesuch.
I'm in the Lemmy catagory.... Its all Rock & Roll.
Metal is metal... I will listen as long as I have ears.
