METAL!

[PianoGirl4444]

So, Vanessa's music is "a waste of materials, human resources and time that could be better spent on heavy metal" ?

I could think of plenty of artists on the spot who aren't Metal, play guitar, and far exceed the talents of many Metal artists. Conor Oberst, for one, is an innovative and eclectic guitarist; Roseanne Cash is a brilliant guitarist - not Metal. I really don't see either of them doing any metal in the future...

You are my friend


hehe. I do like genres other than metal- I mean, I'm posting on a Vanessa Cartlon board, aren't I?- but I really do feel an affinity for certain types of metal. Lots of people don't get it, but some of it I find, well, comforting. Somehow, it gives me a sense of belonging, like Metallica- I am devoted.

...also, James Hetfield is considered by many to be (arguably) the best rhythm guitarist of all time- not just in the metal genre. As for Kirk Hammett- he is amazing. The solo for One- wow. Also Fade To Black. I can play that one... it's awesome!

Kev222, which bands do you like? I hope you will like my music. It's kinda like metal x classic rock x alternative, with classical influences on the piano here and there. It's dark

Correct

I like,

Classic Heavy Metal: Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Dio, Primal Fear, Helloween, Iced Earth, UFO.
Thrash metal: Metallica (really only the first 4 albums, but they are 4 absolutely classic albums), Anthrax, Exodus, Megadeth
Death metal, Death, Children of Bodom (arguably they aren't death metal), Opeth
Progressive Metal, Dream Theater, Symphony X
Power metal: Dragonforce, Secret Sphere, Kamelot, Sonata Arctica, Gamma Ray
Neo- classical shred metal: Jason becker, Cacophony, Malmsteen
Some new stuff that I can't classify: Shadow's Fall, 3 Inches Of Blood

Basically anything heavy with ripping guitar solos. The more the merrier (like Dragonforce, 16 per song ). I like operatic vocals too, but I can live with grunts and growls if the music is good enough .

I hope you will like my music. It's kinda like metal x classic rock x alternative, with classical influences on the piano here and there. It's dark

If you know what song that is from, I love you.

I don't like Metal. I think the hardest rock type music that I could stand was Def Lepard, Whitesnake, and Twisted sister and that was when I was most of your ages now but I don't think they're considered Metal are they?

[MeganJane]

^... I'd say probably more like "hard rock"... but dude, "I WANNA ROCK!" *air guitars*

[Ryou-Neko]

They were considered Metal in the 80s. Music genres are so polluted now that everything is everything and anything could be anything. Hilary Duff is so alternative.

3 Inches Of Blood

Dude! DEADLY SINNERS!!!!

Great track. I nearly saw them live before they were a very big band (pre-advance & vanquish), but we couldn't afford it in the end

I think Leopard are generally considered more metal than the other two. If band likes Motley Crew are considered metal, then Whitesnake and Twisted Sister can be too. I just call it all glam shite ;-) But at least the solos were good.

I'm a guitarist and a lot of the stuff I like to play are sweep picked arpeggios and alternate picking, more commonly referred to as, Shred, by guitarists. Therefore, I love Melodic Death Metal such as Children of Bodom or Negrophagist. I don't mind other metal bands though that are more mellow such as Opeth.

My favourite shredding guitarist is Yngwie Malmsteen. He is a heavy metal guitarist, famous for making neoclassical music what it is. Metalheads will know who Yngwie is - "that egotistical bastard". Yes, he is very egotistical but he made the genre what it is. I love how he plays purely classical music on electric guitar using alternate and sweep picking.

No....
