Metal rulez. I listen to Disturbed, Drowning Pool, 8 Foot Sativa, Rammstein, Korn, Rob Zombie, the list goes on...
But my fav would probly b Disturbed
ewwwwwwww, i prefer hip-hop, but it is fun watching those guys make fools of themselves and beat each other up.
to post below:well i didnt really say anything bad about metal, other than ew, but tahts the first time iver heard hip hop called pansy music. i guess people can relate to different types of music.
Argh, i personally think hip-hop is pansy music lol, no offense, everyone has their own preferences. But you never get the same vibe Metal tracks hav to offer
can u dance to rock no? can u dance it hip-hop yes.
Dance to techno/trance. Anyway, who needs to dance when u can just go mental with metal
Umm correct me if i'm wrong but didn't Terra say this was a Heavy metal Thread not a "I dont like metal, give me Dance music thread" So if you dont have anything to say about Metal music then dont post it.Originally posted by: hiddenpookie
can u dance to rock no? can u dance it hip-hop yes.
As for me, I love Distrubed, Metallica, Drowning Pool, Hatebreed, the list goes on and on.
probably the most retarded thread, but whatever [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
i like goth rock, which could be, in a way, classified as metal. nightwish, after forever, stuff like that. also, prog metal like tool and stuff. i like classic rock the most, the who and jimi.
'can you dance to hiphop'? maybe. you sure can dance to hip pop, though. 50 cent is not (read: NOT) hiphop. him, eminem, ja rule (recent crap), nelly, all those idiots, are backstreet boys with gold chains and a curses.
if you like 'hiphop', i suggest you check out groups like jedi mind tricks, binary star, outerspace, talib kweli (his stuff with hi tek), and ye olde gangstarr and wu tang.
just say no to mtv, you just might avoid going to hell [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
lol i dont understand how this thread is even the slightest bit retarded. I get your point about hip-hop though.
I'm not sure if it fits in the same catagory (probly more rock than metal), but my all time favourite band Linkin Park is definately worth mentioning. Their tracks are just awsome and their live performances are even better.

My favoritte metal bands atm... HmmMz!
1) Linkin Park (Is this metal acctually... wheren't sure.)
2) Korn mayB (I know one who knows the singer there )
.... 3,4,5 i cant decide...
But I have been at a korn konsert in Oslo spektrum that was way too fun so I'm goin' to go to norwegianwood festival www.norwegianwood.com there Korn, deftones and soulflies comes at this one day I'm going with some friends \m/.
I have to admit, my favourite "metal" or "hxc" or "rock" bands in general are mostly local bands around where I live. That's most of the stuff I listen to. I mean, sure I listen to Tool (which is my all-time favourite band), and Evergreen Terrace, and Bullet for My Valentine, And Hopesfall (the older), and Bleeding Through, and Atreyu, and bands like that.... but most of what I listen to are local bands: MSD, Incursion, Antikythera, (intheclear), Five Bolt Main (which contains members of Flaw), 7DaySun, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, A Present Day Nightmare, Straight Line Stitch, Arcane Saint, PUC.... and I can name a lot more.
Anyways... while much "mainstream" metal is definitely worth listening to, I find local music fresher... 'cause there's really no boundaries. And band members treat their fans as equal; you can chat away with any of the band members at a show or online or even at their place of employment (yes, they have other jobs). So, while the rewards aren't as plentiful as "making it big", the lifestyle is much more appreciable.
I'm completely lost on what I'm saying now, so I'm just gonna shut up... haha...
I hate local bands. I'm going to be honest and tell you why. I AM FUCKING JEALOUS. Every time I see some "regular guy" standing on the stage, I get pissed off. So until I actually have my own breakthrough, I will never be able to appreciate local music acts. They are too close. I can't take it. Fuck them.
Ehrm, anyway, did I mention that the new Eternal Tears of Sorrow album is out?
I've waited sooooo long for it... it's called Before the Bleeding Sun and I recommend it to all fans of melodic death metal with lots of keyboards.
I listen to pretty much everything now but when I was younger (~'92 to '97) I used to listen to nothing but heavy metal. Favourites at the time were White Zombie, Pantera, Sepultura, Megadeath, Metallica, Ozzy. I also listened to Manson but I'm not sure if you can call him metal...
White Zombie was by far my favourite. Even now Astro-Creep: 2000 is an amazing album. If you haven't listened to this album then you're really missing out. I have Rob Zombie's first solo album, Hellbilly Deluxe, but I was a little disappointed. Despite still being pretty good, I felt it didn't quite match up to Astro or La Sexorcisto.
EDIT: Rammstein's stuff is also pretty good, from what I've heard
Now, Haggard is my favorite band, but Nightwish is fucking amazing too, especially live. I love metal bands with good female singers (any suggestions?). It's too bad almost no one in USA has heard of these bands. Check it.

Nightwish rules, one of my favorite bands ever, loved them since '98. Too bad many people are calling them sellouts now because they have been getting more attention. People suck.
Porcupine Tree is cool.
Mastodon.. I never really saw the appeal. And on top of that the first single from Blood Mountain I don't care for.

linkin park live performances? hehe.. i respect your taste and likings, but you've got a lot to see and learn [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] compared to some bands, LP looks like n'sync onstage. hmm.. dream theater and opeth, anyone?
by retarded i half-jokingly meant the spirit of the thread, 'WOOHOO YEAH ROCK!!!", regular teen stuff [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] it's just how it struck me when i first read it.
Get the fucking hip-hop crap out of my metal thread you fags!
Only metal-heads need apply here, the rest of you can create a thread of your own; especially with an argument like 'you can dance to hip-hop'. Well, can you headbang to hip-hop? It's just as stupid to say. In any case, get out.
I'm not much for nu metal (Linkin Park, Korn) whatever... I prefer power/symphonic & melodic death, but I guess only people who read about metal knows what I'm talking about.
In Flames 4 life clayman rulse it all, everything before clayman is super alsow. cob follow the reaper and somthing wild are number 2... other wise i just started listning to Devildriver, good alsow... \m/Ò_ó\m/ o saw in flames in stockholm the best anyhow... later...
