My wife very much likes Leaves Eyes; she's an old Theatre of Tragedy fan from way back, so she loves Liv Kristine. We saw Nightwish with Tarja a few years ago and enjoyed them. I'm not much into Death Metal, though the singer for Arch Enemy is pretty impressive and good.

It's not about the Genres it is about the music.

I too enjoy me some Nightwish.

Symphonic Metal, Death Metal, if it sounds good, it sounds good.

I find that most women that sing in screamo/thrash metal bands sound pretty much identical.

But I like some Symphonic metal with female leads, like Savior, such as Nightwish and Within Temptation.

No that video does nothing for me except make me twinge.

I do like some of the nightwish stuff, but not enough to get bent out of shape over their former female lead singer getting the boot.

If I could meet a female who liked metal... But alas, my search continues.

Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I don't think I've ever had a conversation or read a forum thread discussion between metal fans without someone declaring that something "isn't metal". Sometimes it's not "x brand of metal" but still.

Why does metal need so many fecking sub genres anyway? (It's my secret belief that it's because metal fans enjoy elitism, and the more sub genres you have the more scope there is for elitism.)

This is all, of course, beside the point.
I like female vocalists, and I like metal. So yes. I like women in metal. I also like that the women in metal can usually actually sing, as opposed to just yelling semi-incoherantly into the mic.

More or less goth rock, but I would totally want to make the lead singer of Birthday Massacre sing.

I've also got a thing for goth/scene girls... *ahem*

Maybe you hang out with immature women. Maybe you're attracted to immature women because you think they'll let you shpadoink them.

I'm looking and have been looking since I finished my apprenticeship at the start of February. Job Centre and Connextions are coming up blank and so am I. There doesn't seem to be much need for a qualified desktop support technician.

Birthday money goes towards the crapton of stuff I have to buy (presents for other people's birthdays such as my mum; my dad; my brother etc.), what I have left to spend on me at the end of it isn't much; total I get rarely passes £100. Christmas money is basically a partial refund for the cash I spent on other people and usually runs in the region of £40.

I also don't get paid for oddjobs, since i'm living here and paying minimal rent, jobs I do around the house count as paid rent. Not about to go and clean other people's cars either or walk their pets; i'm not that sort of guy; "you can clean your own damn car and clean up your own dog's crap you lazy fether; why did you get it if you need someone else to look after it?" would blurt out at some point. Yeah, not good with that stuff at all.

Of course, if I get a job I don't like in a career i'm not interested in, I will end up caving in someone's skull in anger.

EDIT: I was close to swearing at my old boss during an apprenticeship placement a LOT of times, and I seriously had to restrain myself from picking up the closest object and beating him to death with it. I used to have a good level of patience, but that was frayed by years of bullying and depression.

A job you don't like or in a field you are not interested in is NOT a career.

It is a means to an end, not an end to itself.


I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
