not sure where to put this but.....
any smashers that listen to METAL here
(glam dose not count)
UP THE ****ING IRONS!
And what about early Pantera, does that not count? Powermetal was a good album.
I pretty much listen to it all
Progressive Metal, Alternative Metal, Death Metal, Black Metal, Power Metal, Speed Metal, Thrash Metal, Post-Thrash, Melodic Death Metal, Pirate Metal, Volk Metal, New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, Classic Metal and I'm sure there are more that I missed and combinations of all those genres plus a lot of prefixes.
I listen to everything from Alice In Chains to White Zombie.
I've got a ****load of metal that I need to sort through, tag and organize.
The last concert I went to was 3 Inches of Blood & The Black Dahlia Murder. It was at a small venue, but the moshing was great. It was also a steal $15.
I really want to see Maiden this summer and of course Ozzfest. It isn't quite Wacken, but there is no international travel required for Ozzfest.
Also, if you like smash and you like metal then I suggest you check out Stemage who does some awesome metroid music only it is METAL. Another artist I really like would be Gore******* (I'm guessing that last word is censored, think illegitimate child) on newgrounds who is an F-Zero fan and does a few covers from F-Zero and some other video game stuff. Devil's Forest doesn't even need a cover to pretty much be metal though.
Favorite metal band would have to be Iron Maiden.
I don't like Slipknot or Korn or anything close to them. I don't care how fast Joey Jordison can play the drums, I'd take Brann Dailor over him any day of the week.
I'm also a bit tired of Dragonforce fanboys. I also don't like the elitist metalheads that go on how Dethklok is a complete farce. For one thing Gene Hoglan is a beast on the drums and I doubt any of them would bad mouth Death. Brendon Small is very talented(Being able to do voices on Home Movies and then also be Nathan Explosion). He graduated from Berklee College of Music and is a good musician and comedian. Then for their live shows they have got some guitarist that played with Frank Zappa. It is definitely solid melodic death metal, but it also humorous at the same time.
