04.19.12 | Metal isn't a genre
If you rule you are metal
if you don't you're gay |
AtomicShane
04.19.12 | only thing i like out of these is deathcore, so their all gay |
eternium
04.19.12 | Hair/glam metal definitely isn't metal.
Led Zeppelin, etc. aren't metal.
Grindcore is sometimes metal, debatable.
Nu-Metal is sometimes metal, depends on how heavy.
Power metal is cheese metal.
Deathcore is the worst genre but sadly counts as metal. |
Emim
04.19.12 | hair metal, easily |

04.19.12 | Damn Hans isn't here to be devil's advocate

UnnamedOcean
04.19.12 | Metal used to be a lot softer than bands are today, so classifying metal by how heavy it is is stupid. |
ThroneOfAgony
04.19.12 | It totally depends. Each genre has its best and worst |
eternium
04.19.12 | Black Sabbath is still heavy and they were the first metal band so.... |
Trebor.
04.19.12 | Yeah |
accompliceofmydeath
04.19.12 | Pretty much agree with eternium, except I don't mind deathcore. |
bowlofsoup
04.19.12 | Hair metal wins for sure |
Hyperion1001
04.19.12 | have you guys even fucking heard motley crue? |
Graveyard
04.19.12 | Hair/glam metal: More about style, than the actual music
Grindcore: obv yea
Nu-Metal: There is so much crap surrounding this genre, if you can even call it that, so no.
Power metal: Depends on the cheesy factor
Deathcore *refer to the nu-metal description* |
Dreamflight
04.19.12 | Can't say I agree with your desc for power metal. I mean if you're reffering to stuff like Edguy, Fairyland, Helloween and so on it's spot on, but bands like Blind Guardian, Iced Earth or 3 Inches of Blood are kinda heavy to me. |
HitlerIsCool
04.19.12 | hair metal for sure |
eternium
04.19.12 | Motley Crue is sorta metal but they're probably the most metal of the glam bands anyway so as a whole it isn't metal. |
Graveyard
04.19.12 | surprised no one brought up Kiss |
imjustthatcool
04.19.12 | hair metal or nu metal. deathcore is like the worst possible metal out there but it can still be considered metal |
Shuyin

04.19.12 | "Metal isn't a genre
If you rule you are metal
if you don't you're gay"
+1 ovrot |
KjSwantko
04.19.12 | Hair Metal is easily the least metal but it still rules, so my vote goes to Nu-metal as least metal |
KSK1
04.19.12 | Power metal is the fucking worst. |

04.19.12 | i don't understand why people say deathcore isn't metal, i mean obviously a lot of it sucks hard but
the term "metal" isn't a statement of quality, its entirely possible to have bad metal. besides, at
this point in its development deathcore has almost no hardcore influence unless you count
breakdowns, but its not like metal and breakdowns are mutually exclusive. i'm playing the devil's
advocate as there are only a few deathcore bands that i really listen to anymore, but still i think
people think of "metal" as a badge of honor when really its just a broad genre term that has no
bearing on whether or not something is actually good.
anyway, i guess i'd say i agree with 1 in that the least metal "metal" is stuff like bon jovi and
kiss that sometimes gets labeled as metal but is really just the poppiest type of hard-rock. and to
me grind can really be broken down into two categories, the kind that is more metal (stuff like
discordance axis) and stuff that is more punk/hardcore (although this kind of overlaps with crust
and powerviolence.) |
TheSpirit
04.19.12 | hair metal is metal, you guys just don't get it at all |
TheSpirit
04.19.12 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Dq-k_jzEtI i mean c'mon listen to those riffs, pure metal. The genre has definitely evolved but to say stuff like this isn't metal is ignorant. It's not all about Opeth and growls you faggots |
Trebor.
04.19.12 | I don't even like Opeth |
TheSpirit
04.19.12 | good |
