Who likes metal music??

Confession: I lost my taste for metal music. :judo:
I just don't have any desire to listen to screaming metal.
It gets in the way of my Yoga. :badbone:

Once sent from the Golden Hall.
I used to listen to a lot of the grim stuffs. But now a days I'm taking it a bit more easy. At the moment I'm listening to Sentenced. Viking/folk is where my metal heart lays now (Pagan fest next month whoot!). Back in the day i used to be all about really grim black metal. But I've always been open to anything. I hate when people back music if its just not THEIR kind of music.
Deadsy used to be my favorite band and now its Amon Amarth.
 
I just started listening to X Japan, ever since I heard they're having their reunion tour. Oh well, better late than never, I guess.

Like would be an understatement. Been listening to metal for close to 20 years. Though I also listen to classical, classical/flamenco guitar, old country western, baroque guitar, folk (not the 60's crap) music, etc.
 
Wow, I'm actually surprised to see a bunch of decent band names being posted on here, Meshuggah for one! They're so intricate with their variations, and when bands strive to catch up to them, they're always 3 steps ahead of the flock. If there was a 2001: A Space Odyssey in metal, it'd be Meshuggah. I watched Fear Factory play yesterday, and their set was pretty good, mixing it up with their new album and songs off Demanufacture.

Did anyone go for Maryland Deathfest this year or any of the bigger concerts? I wish I could travel to Europe for the Mountains Of Death fest or Obscenefest!

I listen to a lot of DM (Old School/ Tech/ Brutal and all of their sub-sub genres haha), and Doom, few select Grind/ Thrash/ BM/ Viking/ Folk bands. I can't stand Powermetal or Hardcore or Heavymetal per say.
 
:ubik: I'm a huge metal fan. And this and the last year were amazing! I mean Converge with Axe to Fall ripped off every head! Kreator, Slayer bombed the shit out of me! Thrash Metal is back. Destruction, Sodom, Kreator, Testament, Death Angel, Exodus.
Black Metal got a new hope. Watain's Sworn to the Dark was unbelievable phat! But now the album is kicking even more asses! Mastodon defined how progressive metal has to sound today. Ihsahn's After was a masterpiece. I'm speechless! Anyway! There's one thing i don't like in metal. And that's Power Metal. Can't stand it. Okay i like Jag Panzer. But that's it. No other band could get my attention of that genre. Just songs.

I'm not a fan of the current decades screaming vocals, I guess I'm too 80's thrash. But I'm not a huge fan of a lot of these weak radio rock bands either. Its time a new band comes along and re-invents the music industry. These mediocre rock bands that haunt the air waves make my daily commutes depressing. I'm actually listening to pop now because I can't stand it. (I'm a huge Rihanna fan now! :void:) But that's partly because I dance a lot. But even pop can have you pulling your hair out sometimes. I guess, its just maintaining a balance, at least when it comes to me.

I do keep up with Dir en Grey.

Metallica still stands as my favorite band of all time.
 
Hey Death May Die, maybe you should try Airbourne, Biffy Clyro (the last two albums for you), Arcade Fire, The Gaslight Anthem, Danko Jones, Electric Eel Schock (japanese rock, very solid!! and live unbeatable!!) and Volbeat. That would be some bands that could help you going through this disease ;) hrhr

Your painting with a broad brush to say all current screamin metal bands need to be re-invented. Some of the new stuff blows away a lot of that 80's bullshit. If i may make a suggestion, try listening to It Dies Today http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbianwyeqy4 - this song is what I imagine to hear during the apocalypse. And even more recently there's this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYTzcubws7Y&feature=avmsc2 The devil Wears Prada - Assistant to the regional manager lol

Hope this helps. There's so many more too. Personally I love the new generation of screaming post hardcore bands. Unfortunately, it died down a lot, but a few bands keep it going and still have some stuff coming out in the future.

I apologize, but I think you misunderstood me. Although I don't prefer screaming vocals, it wasn't particularly that I wish was re-invented. When I said I wish the industry would be re-invented, I was directing it at more so the rock/metal mainstream radio world. I'm talking about something along the lines, like when Nirvana came along and ended the entire hair metal band era of the 80's. (For better or worse.)
 
hair metal aka glam metal was destined to vanish! Because it was shitty music by people that dressed sometimes cool and sometimes not.

@Oburi, okay that's not metal, but cool music. Just cool music to chill.

@DMD There is some Metal that is very oldschol, like ASG and The Ocean. They may be something you cold like. It is Stone Rock/Metal with clean singing. But Riffs that are heavy as fuck, real sludge!
