Re: Let's take a Metal Poll...
I don't even know what half the metal bands I like fall under. I just like metal in general for the most part.

Re: Let's take a Metal Poll...
A good chunk of the bands I enjoy are Black metal.
Black Metal Burzum Nokturnal Mortum Mayhem Dark Funeral Chthonic Gorgoroth Emperor Death metal Death Morbid angel Obituary Acheron Thrash Overkill Slayer Testament Death Angel Sodom Power metal Kamelot Rhapsody Blind Gaurdian Sacred dawn Prog Dream theater Elctrikchair Mr. Bungle(Softer but oh well.) Opeth Grindcore Anal Blast Unmercyful Napalm Death So I guess most of the music I enjoy is Black Metal. |

Re: Let's take a Metal Poll...
dbziscool - Newer Kamelot are starting to display more prog tones alongside their power metal roots.
Also, Mr Bungle isn't really Prog-Metal. They are everything. I mean none of their albums could be called metal. California is calm bit of everything. Disco Volante is messed up avant-garde mixture of everything and their self-titled is crazy avant-garde circus music. Though if you listen to their debut ep "The Raging Wrath Of The Easter Bunny" that's pretty much death-metal (what they started out as). |

Bungle is everything there for can be considered a form of metal. Yes, alot of songs are Rock or chaotic but listion to songs like My ass is on fire or most of their first self titled album. The song Travolta though soft can be considered a form of prog metal due to the fact it is slightly to heavy to be considered anything else(Also during the time it was quite heavy even compared to most american mainstream bands at the time. Mr. Bungles later stuff 1995 and beyond is were they started geting weirder. Plus after meeting Mike Patton himself in Beverly hills he himself declared that they were once considered prog metal from the start to 1991. There for they can be considered prog metal. For example, Testament is very well known as a thrash metal band. How ever There later music is similer to Old school death metal. does this mean they are not considered thrash? Of course not. even Sodom can arguably be considered death metal. Translation: Due to Bungle being considered Metal at one point in their time, you can consider them as prog metal due to how heavy the self titled album was. Take a listion to track nine. It has plently of thrash elements to it. |

Re: Let's take a Metal Poll...
Death metal is still supreme over all other genres in my opinion. Exception for Iced Earth.

Re: Let's take a Metal Poll...
I love every type of metal but metal is metal. So why classify it when you can just bang your head to each one till you puke
Weather the genre sucks or not, It's attracting more metalheads. Hopefully hip-hop/rap will die because I hate it. That's just my opinion. -XxXmetalheadXxX |

Re: Let's take a Metal Poll...
The only thing death metal excels at it being generic and repetitive.

That certainly goes without saying, but I bring it up only because frankly I think the gems are common enough to make it worthwhile and be my favorite metal genre as well. I mean, can you tell me something like Altars of Madness or Left Hand Path or practically any Bolt Thrower album aren't just absolutely astounding? This is true, though I'd hardly use Blind Guardian as an example of a generic band since they're positively brilliant. And again I'd probably agree that death metal has more terrible bands whereas power metal might just be saturated with mediocrity.

It's true though, that power metal has an incredibly amount of generic bands, but I'd say DM has more, because they all try to be brootal and agressive like the early bands but only end up playing the same riff over and over again. But if you want to start listing generic bands, you'll still be there tomorrow.
