BlastRadius 12.15.11	obvious list is obvious
sumyunguy 12.15.11	agree with all of them except for 1. most glam sucked but motley crue, skid row and def leppard (if you consider them glam) put out some great stuff.
pizzamachine 12.15.11	I like me some 2 and 5.
foreverendeared 12.15.11	Helloween redeems the whole power metal genre.
Hordewolf 12.15.11	"(I might like bands such as Dimmu Borgir" duh.
ValeriusTheImmortal 12.15.11	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gA9lPZSkuDE you're so far away dude
JWT155 12.15.11	I'd be in a glam band if I got half as much pussy as those guys did in the 80's.
Hyperion1001 12.15.11	there are some good power metal bands
Imperial 12.15.11	come on man power metal is cheese but it's fun cheese.
Eulogize 12.15.11	3 rules.
Trebor. 12.15.11	deathcore is the worst genre period glam isn't metal either if you ask me
DoubtGin 12.15.11	black metal
theweightofdarkness 12.15.11	Dragons and eternal glory are fucking legit
geng 12.15.11	Worst metal genres: All of them except for post and progressive
ffs 12.15.11	Insightful list. Thanks muchwise.
Imperial 12.15.11	"Worst metal genres: All of them except for post and progressive" Progressive post-deathcore.
Ire 12.15.11	5 sucks i hope it dies
DrummerX09 12.15.11	Probably Deathcore except for BOO's new album, I like it.
RobotJesus 12.15.11	3 rules. [2]
Imperial 12.15.11	Symphonic metal. What about Stormlord's Mare Nostrum? That album was gooder.
Timmons 12.15.11	ugh symphonic metal. what could deathcore ever do to be good?
D41V30N 12.15.11	I felt the same about 2. Until I heard Blind Guardian. ... Well, I still feel the same about the genre, except for Blind Guardian.
BigHans 12.15.11	oh hey look its someone with death and black metal in their pie chart blasting glam metal what a shock.
greg84 12.15.11	I don't like/can't really get into black metal. Nu metal isn't that bad if executed well.
Divine 12.15.11	Thought you were going to have post-metal on this list, glad you didn't
Jethro42 12.15.11	I have no fun either with black metal
BigHans 12.15.11	black metal sucks
Damrod 12.15.11	You forgot Djent
DoubtGin 12.15.11	black metal sucks [123236456787998795436168769546445]
DrummerX09 12.15.11	Djent isn't a genre. It's a tone that to many people are using.
TheArkitecht 12.15.11	I fail to see what doesn't make djent a genre, a bunch of bands that sound similar to one another with constant defining characteristics? sounds like a genre to me.
Trebor. 12.15.11	Because it's deathcore
Relinquished 12.15.11	"I fail to see what doesn't make djent a genre, a bunch of bands that sound similar to one another with constant defining characteristics? sounds like a genre to me." it's just a guitar sound. and a lot of it has deathcore/metalcore influences. I bet some of those bands haven't even heard of Meshuggah.
Trebor. 12.15.11	It's just deathcore with a really gay guitar tone
Aids 12.15.11	oh god this is going to become yet another thread about whether or not djent is a genre, isn't it? and yeah Power Metal sucks except for Blind Guardian. their versions of Mr. Sandman and Surfin' USA are probably the greatest things I've ever ever heard.
Ire 12.15.11	black metal sux
tarkus 12.15.11	black metal rules
Trebor. 12.15.11	My favorite black metal artist is Vegan Black Metal Chef
BigHans 12.15.11	and yeah Power Metal sucks except for Blind Guardian. their versions of Mr. Sandman and Surfin' USA are probably the greatest things I've ever ever heard. ^ apparently you've never heard of a little band called MANOWAR
Trebor. 12.15.11	I hate when kids call deathcore and djent prog metal
tarkus 12.15.11	Gamma Ray is a good power metal band
Jethro42 12.15.11	One of the very few BM song I love; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvWQQaCpte4
tarkus 12.15.11	Good choice Jethro, Drudkh rules
Jethro42 12.15.11	=] I also like some In The Woods... So yeah, lite BM.
foxblood 12.15.11	Power Metal can be awesome
Aids 12.15.11	"^ apparently you've never heard of a little band called MANOWAR" heard of them, never listened to them though. do they do lots of stuff like that?
Ire 12.15.11	but srsly bm = life
RunOfTheMill 12.15.11	LOL yeah, power metal lyrics fucking blow, but, from a personal point of view, listening to power metal is more about every element coming together and making some really neat stuff. If you look into Helloween, Manowar or early Gamma Ray, it's hard to say it's bad music. And it's bloody fucking fun! Of course, if you look into things lie DragonForce, that's a completely different league, in which case most elements of the music are a major turn off. Especially when they're repeated 20000 times per album.
DoABarrelRoll 12.15.11	Power metal is just cheesy goodness Deathcore is a saturated genre, but there are a few gems Nu metal is something for 13 year old "outcasts" you will love it as a teenager, but once you grow up and lose your angst you'll be pretty much ashamed Glam metal....no comment
BigHans 12.15.11	Aids read my review for Manowar - Kings of Metal
Jethro42 12.15.11	Ved Buens Ende; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMPfYr7JiZM another cool BM song.
Trebor. 12.15.11	Best black metal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax8hvI_4IbY&feature=relmfu
Auschwitz 12.15.11	"Any metal that is not Black Metal is white metal which is compassionate metal which is a paradox that is cancelling the whole purpose of the genre. so yea!" youre dumb.
D41V30N 12.15.11	@ BigHans: I've heard of Manowar. I have two of their latest albums. They're good, but for some reason, they didn't appeal to me enough to spark my curiosity.
DoubtGin 12.15.11	power metal is great fuck offf
KILL 12.15.11	agreed
jayfatha 12.15.11	Haha Vegan Black Metal Chef, hell yea m/
Trebor. 12.15.11	Vegan Black Metal Chef was on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, but in the description he was labeled as "Vegan Death Metal Chef" Major fail right there
jayfatha 12.15.11	Pretty sure that's blasphemous
Dreamflight 12.15.11	wow, refreshing list is refreshing.
FearThyEvil 12.15.11	2 doesn't deserve to be here because their are some awesome power metal bands. Agree that the lyrics are pretty stupid though.
Acanthus 12.15.11	Dude get 5 and 2 off here, they are awesome genre's.
climactic 12.15.11	"I might like the genre a little more if not for the gazillion 'br00t4l' breakdowns in each song." so, death metal?
machineknot97 12.15.11	"I might like the genre a little more if not for the gazillion 'br00t4l' breakdowns in each song." so, death metal? Death metal tends to feature solos rather than breakdowns
Recspecs 12.15.11	Most metal in general sucks ass anyways.
Iamthe Nightstars 12.15.11	so far awayyyyyyyyyyyyy
machineknot97 12.15.11	we wait for the dayyyyyy-eeee-aaaaayyyyy
Iamthe Nightstars 12.16.11	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gA9lPZSkuDE
machineknot97 12.16.11	^Cheesier than...something very cheesy
Asiatic667 12.16.11	lol, machineknot97. Born in 1997 Fave bands? probably Machinehead and Slipknot. This list is crucial
machineknot97 12.16.11	Yeah I can admit the username is a little stupid, but we're all entitled to an opinion
Poet 12.16.11	"The lyrics and themes of this genre make are what makes it truly awful. Although some of the guitar work is sometimes admirable, the lyrics soon take away any credibility, usually obsessing over dragons and eternal glory, blah blah blah." Another person that takes it waaaaaaaayyyyy too seriously. And really if you look you'll find power metal bands who have great lyrics that don't deal with all that jazz.
Asiatic667 12.16.11	There were some good Nu Metal albums. Check out Spineshank- Self Destructive Pattern and Static-X - Wisconsin death trip. They're good.
RooseveltsGhost 12.16.11	grind, dude. grind blows and even grind knows it
machineknot97 12.16.11	There were some good Nu Metal albums. Check out Spineshank- Self Destructive Pattern and Static-X - Wisconsin death trip. They're good Yeah I used to really like Spineshank, went off them a bit lately but I still occasionally listen to them for the nostalgia. Can't say I've heard of Static - X though
Iamthe Nightstars 12.16.11	Grind is fun to listen to though. Glam and nu metal are just terrible.
XfingTheSullen 02.22.14	There is some good music in all of these genres tbh
VermTheImpaler 02.22.14	Lol Respect to nu metal, glam metal, metalcore and deathcore usually is hit or miss, there is some shit, that for sure but albums like violence, slave to the grind, the price of existence and alive or just breathing just to mention a few examples are great, there is more material than crap like limp bizkit, poison, atreyu or bmth in both genres. The comments of symphonic metal and power metal are pure gold, I'm sure this dude has only heard through the fire and flames on the guitar hero and I'm sure he hasn't heard properly a therion or a haggard album, still the opinion of a generic black / death metal fan about most of those genre is cliche and comical, I don't hope that those dudes enjoy what they can't understand
CalculatingInfinity 02.22.14	Fucking awful list, especally for number 2. Also WTF with the 3 year bump.
XfingTheSullen 02.22.14	If someone says symphonic metal is bad they sure haven't heard shade empire - omega arcane
VermTheImpaler 02.22.14	This guy was 14 when he made this list. I'm sure he has a wider spectrum
frigyourgenre 02.22.14	Glam metal is far from the worst sub genre tho
VermTheImpaler 02.22.14	Is hit or miss, just fun stuff. Still crap like poison and winger annoys me
Ryus 02.22.14	5 and 2 are not bad at all
VermTheImpaler 02.22.14	2 and 5 are just hated by idiots who still have a trauma with the high school nerds in ther 20's
XfingTheSullen 02.22.14	No idea why I bumped this btw, it just seems to have appeared in my feed for some reason, haha
sixdegrees 06.26.18	interesting take

Sinternet 06.26.18	inspirational
TheSpaceMan 06.26.18	honestly nu metal and deathcore are top tier metal genres
