Eh? They arent?KPowerMania said:
. Ok leave Death/Black but what about SlipKnot ? They belong to Nu Metal but still they are not so popular. Why ? Just because their vocalist uses a Death Growling tone ? Or just because their lyrics have more 'fu.cks' then most songs ? SlipKnot has been blamed for inspiring a young teen for murder.... now this is crap BS. What about thrash (your so called great Metallica and IM belong in this one) ? Isnt Slayer been in spotlight for making songs like 'Disciple' ? (The songs main lyrics are something like "God Hates Us All") The song actually talks about the inefficiency of the Government and thats they condemn it 
. Ok leave the genres. I see no point in sidelining Metal as a music genre. In India, Metal concerts are VERY rare and why ? Because of some dumb, and crap culture of God and what not .

Dude, it takes a while to grow into metal^^In my town ==
Coolest artist --> yo man, its teh dumB Emin3m....
The most brutalest/fastest/heaveist/kick-ass artist = Linkin Park
..Eh? They arent?
Maybe because as a genre; they have the following traits.
1. Should be loud to enjoy. Loudness isnt loved by all.
2. Most high-tempoed, not easily understandable.
3. Transtitions within the song maybe difficult to digest.
4. Patroned by a bunch of cocaine-snuffing-emos.
5. Can't be played at wedding parties.
6. Not all people play/understand instruments. And so not all will actually give due respect to the drum, guitar, piano, whatevers played in the songs. Pop, in turn does not need such an understanding.
7. Lyrics are much inhuman, un-productive and IMo worthless. though I do enjoy the songs.
metallica, iron maiden, thats enough for meh.
& after listening 2 them its like ur head really bcome a metal type...
. They deserve it. Their music is much better than the Nu-Metal posers. Doom Metal is OKish. They creat a nice ambience though. But no match to ambient Black Metal and Blackened Death Metal. For more info, listen to Cradle of Filth . Neo Classic Metal.... .
It looks so.
.
^^Leave it. The kids in your house (if any) will start crying

Oh...so dats ur real name..then henceforth i'll call u Paranj...
but where will u go together with metal...
hmm..magic word...So please, remove the above post or I might take it a newer level
Here comes the Metal.
Rightly said....it's out of choice that I listen to Metal (and Western Classical too, not Mozart, Beethoven but other composers)
My my, that resembles my favourites as well. Though I never heard Dream Theater, Anthrax. How do they both compare to say Mettalica; differences? Similarities? Heard people say that Dream theater is real good?MetalheadGautham said:
To you, yes.KPowerMania said:
I also used to think the same way till sometime ago. Now I'd say I love music rather than Metal. I respect Pop, Blues, cuz thats where I started from. ). What about you people?

To you, yes.
Not that they arent enjoyable IF they are good; only that my tastes have chnaged over time, which I'm sure yours have too; cuz you were a LP fan sometime before.

BTW Guys; I really love when black-metallers cover the songs of bands like Iron Maiden. Like Hallowed be Thy Name - Iron Maiden - Covered by Cradle of Filth.And plenty more. Its just gives a new aura to old songs(though Metal never gets old.
. :- :-
..Just listen to them ..read their lyrics translation frm herzeleid.com and u will feel in heaven..Read my blog *musicworld15.blogspot.com for more recommendations ...
Well Paranj
lemme tell u ..evryone has got their own taste
So when my frnds say "ye kya dhai dhai sunta rehta hai ? " I say to them F**k you
Only some people like us have the power to enjoy the beauty of metal whatever form it is Death, industrial, Nu, Black, Thrash etc etc
I am a big big fan of Rammstein
but I dont listen to metal everytime..I listen depending on my mood. I listen to every type of music like love songs ,ghazals (Jagjit, Ghulam Ali, Mehndi Hassan),kishore da, Mohd rafi, hindi,english,rock,pop, spanish and german music
I mostly listen to metal when I am feeling angry/depressed/frustrated or sometimes I wanna
My choice of Songs :
1. All Rammstein songs
(Spiel Mit mir, Feuer Frei, Engel, Du reischt so gut, Mein Teil, Heirate Mich etc etc)
2. Hallowed be thy name (Cradle of Filth)
awesome when church bells chime..and all the screams ..eeeeeeeee
3. Iron Maiden like Fear of the dark, The Phantom opera etc etc
4. Dirthouse , Speedway by Static X
5. Chaos AD by Sepultura
6. Metallica songs like cyanide, Sad but true, The God that failed etc etc
They rock !!
and ya IronMan has given lots of valid and hillarious reasons that why Metal is not main stream..
IMO the reasons :
1. Not everybody has the patience and power to listen to this genre
2. Metal is considered as Anti Christ
3. Its considered loudest music which ordinary ppl cant understand.
4. Listening and headbanging to it ..can break ur spine and head
5. It contains the most violent and gory topics like blood, g*y, incest relationships, cannibals etc etc so most ppl stay away frm it (although they dont understand lyrics)
6.Its considered as sign of distorted violent mind by Junta so...
But if u get addicted to it..there is no stress reliever like Metal ...
Hail METAL
.
^^^hahahaha..ridiculous Paranj....
Metal is part of my music life not my life
and ya Variety is the spice of life...u shud listen to any music in this world irrespective of genre, language,country etc
U will not understand it now....jab bada ho jayega na like 20-21 tab samjhega
OK have u listened to Rammstein (my obsession) ??
RAMMY ROCKS !!
*upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f3/Rammstein-flamethrowers.jpg
). BTW, awesome pic. And ya, I do listen to some Rammestein but dont like them much as their songs are in foreign language .

.
Yes and no ..Yes because their shows have a lot of energy..
Dude,
I luv Madonna. wtf?
despite being in for too long, she got the tricks.
U listen to one n you've heard 'em all.
Its my view man....if you like her music...then Okay.... I'm not botheredI luv Madonna. wtf?
Anyways; you guys heard Lamb of God?
Thats the main reason most of the people stay away from Death, Thrash metal and our beloved KP is into it.
exactly.U listen to one n you've heard 'em all.
Thats the main reason most of the people stay away from Death, Thrash metal and our beloved KP is into it.
But I do like LP, bcz it was my beginning, and my first love to ROCK. How can I forget 'em.
But @ MetalHeadGautham, ur choice(the bold ones) matches to my interest. I like to call myself a beginner in ROCK/METAL. Not like a pro. I search for a good melody, rhythm and lyric with obviously Guitar riffs.
Thats d reason I've, Nirvana, GnR, IronMaiden, BlackSabbath, Metallica, DeepPurple, Eagles, LedZepplin, Ozzy, Santana etc. in my list.
exactly.
Got hold of some videos from these bands, Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, Black Label Society, Bleeding Through and then listened to SlipKnot(only for KP, he is so mad abt it, and I had to know wat SlipKnot is) and found that they all play like same, sing like same.
Seriously it didn't appeal me. Sorry KP, but it didn't.
So she cant sound like the rest.so here we have people advocating LP(MAINSTREAM....) and Slipknot(Mainstream again.although i love Joey).a couple of pro n00bs advocating more Mainstream rock/metal=Metallica, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple,Led Zeppelin,Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy,etc.
u may be forgiven just becoz u r an indian rocker or maybe u've been listening to music as long as the 14yr kiddo but here's a fun fact.ALL OF THEM ARE MAINSTREAM!!!!!!
so quit whining about them not being mainstream.u f'n are living in India not UK or Sweeden,Finland or USA.how less mainstream can it be that u can buy a COB t-shirt over here!
one thing that 've realized listening to music(which i hated b4 i got into rock) that mainstream is here to stay and wont ever go away but always appreciate and promote artists who sincerely make a record and dont have the biggest labels to show their talent.coz these are the gems u don't wanna miss.
and it's not like u r going to buy the album so why not listen to something different which maybe be equally complex musically.stop being fanboys and listen to whatever good is out there.
finally metal is mainstream enough but you surely don't want it to be tainted.aren't we guyz happy that we know so much of tech and everyone asks our advice before buying something or that we like to label almost 99.9% people n00bs bcoz they are that
if PROism would be mainstream(common)there wouldnt be enough n00bs.would any of us like that?
