[QUOTE=Nicholas Sutton]Yeah System of a Down is nu metal no matter how hard you try to say otherwise.

Very good list man...verrry good list.[/QUOTE]

sure, but they still kick ***

[B]Zombiecore[/B]

Sound like Shai Hulud. Have all the members of Shai Hulud. Play metalcore like Shai Hulud, only make it more simple, straight-forward and zombiefied. Rename your band (which is currently called Shai Hulud) to Zombie Apocalypse. Record an album. Kick as[i][b][/i][/b]s.

Prominent bands: Zombie Apocalypse

Uh, Kaden where's Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie in your list of industrial metal? :confused: They are and always be the best of their genre.

It's not a definitive list, so not every band is gonna be on it.

man whatever

Hmmm...
 

nice post,must of taken quite some time but missing some key points
first of all metallica can't simply be in one category
due to the 20 yrs they have dominated they have went through huge changes
metallica is obviously considered thrash and heavy metal,but their new CRAP should be the rest os the ***** NU-METAL bands that fail to connect with teens at all,i am one
NU-METAL is crap and bands like Slip Knot and Papa Roach are an embarassment
Slip Knot is pathetic,go to a concert and ull see why
listen u obviously know ur stuff but come on...
u might as well seperate the categories as metal
and ***** metal,lol

you just had to join musicianforums to say that didn't you?

solo's **** it up sometimes

What?

[QUOTE=Guitar_From_HELL]solo's **** it up sometimes[/QUOTE]


If it is a bad guitarist doing a bad solo, but I will agree some songs do not need them, but they usually sound better with them.

what a lot of effort to pigeonhole every artist

he only did it because of the constantr questions about which band fits into which genre

i said this before but no-one answered, does any know what sikth would be?

good list and klatu is an idiot papa roach just came out with new album and its good im more leanient to nu metal

also what would kittie and otep be under?

Probably nu-metal.

Dom - can't help you on Sikth. They're just strange.

..... which do you think is the worst band ever? i put them into the same category because i dont really know many other bands that infuse melodic classical acoustic passages with metal effectively

....schwein hunt

I disagree with the bands you put down for Nu-Metal. The lyrics in system of a down are very deep and meaningful.

As for slipknot, I think they fit more under just "heavy metal" as they do change style with albums and its really not their falt that losers/teenyboppers are into their music.

I can understand P.O.D and CO. in "Nu-metal".

slipknot really isnt that bad. just get a wee bit repetitive after a while. i like listening to them though. which is your favorite album?

[QUOTE=PIGS(1 different one)]*cough*[/QUOTE]

Slipknot also have a good fan base. I like slipknot myself.

Im just saying a lot of losers are into them too.

So what about bands who do it ineffectively?

Mostly Opeth is about as metal as King Crimson, except ten times more repetitive.

.. :lol: . what opeth have you heard?

maybe your thinking of... *cough* , otep?

either way its still metal so who gives a fuc|(.
its all about the metal and the metal is about to be LOUD

i got a question for u guys.
what do u think of the guitar solo(can u count it as a solo?) at the beginning of lake bodom from children of bodom??i think it's amazing

[QUOTE=bob the ripper apple.]either way its still metal so who gives a fuc|(.

So isn't hardcore punk loud enough, then? Considering The Exploited are louder than Iron Maiden.

[U]Nu-metal[/U]
Nu-metal is the newest craze to hit mainstream rock radio. Without trying to bash it too much, generally speaking the music structure is very simplistic. Lyrics cover subjects that are close to todays teens (depression, abuse, drugs etc). There are very few guitar solos and the one's that are there are typically very simple and short. Vocals can range from the more metal influenced to a fusion of metal and rap. Guitars are often downtuned or drop tuned. This genre is generally not very popular among listeners of other metal music, but it is the newest craze and therefore very promoted and heavily played on the radio. Bands: Slipknot, Mudvayne, System Of A Down, Papa Roach, P.O.D., Linkin Park, Disturbed.

I am not the most knowledgable person on metal music (at all, in fact). But I am extremely positive that bands like slipknot should not be grouped with trash like linkin park and papa roach, there is a huge difference between the types of music. Slipknot is much more "metal" (i use that term loosely), where as linkin park is hardcore (i use that term quite loosely as well). Just wanted to stick up for my Slipknot (grouping them with linkin park is disgusting)

Do you expect Black Sabbath fans to be any less disgusted about being associated to Slipknot?

Again, if being loud and screaming makes you heavy metal, then what is not metal about hardcore punk? Consider yourself logicf*cked.

Ouch, sound painful :eek:

Go away, you read wrong, this isnt the homo thread.

That helped heaps, now i know what kind of metal i like, well at least i have a name for the kind of metal i like. :thumb:

I like rock n' roll put another dime in the duke-box baby.

I totally agree. Putting slipknot and system of a down along with P.O.D and linkin park is disgusting.

Slipknot and system of a down are metal where as P.O.D are a bunch of christains and linkin park are a bunch of rich nerds.

hang on there, System is not metal, it is rock.. and slipknot is hardcore.. what are you on?

system of a down, rock????it's nu metal.just read the nu metal section on the first page of the thread and u'll see system of a down under nu metal

rock is nu metal

...

system of a down - numetal
POD - Numetal
slipknot - numetal
linkin park - numetal


Now shut the hell up.
