Favorite Kind of Metal

What is your favorite genre of metal?

Mine is definitely Thrash.

odl school metal, ozzy, judas preist. but im not a huge metal fan. i hate all new metal.

Progressive

old school metal. megadeth,alice cooper, black sabbath, ronnie james dio

Mostly old school stuff like BBT. I like a little prog metal but not much, like Protest the Hero. For southern metal ish type stuff BLS. Maylene and the Sons of disaster are decent. Right now though I'm in a Guns N' Roses/Aerosmith/Hendrix type of feel. I just like that not overly fast, bluesy, in your face **. I think it's a lot more my kind of style than metal [although I do like listening to metal].

I can't decide. So I'm gonna go with saying just Metal.
New, old, well I can't listen to some Metal, cuz most of it is just power chord+blast beat+ guttaral vocal. So anything that isn't like Grindcore.
Any metal that has something constantly going on, I really dig prog.

Apocalyptic Thrash!

well if they had folk metal or maybe country western metal I'd be into that.

In all seriously I used to be int Thrash back when metallica, rocked, and anthrax raped. oh those were the good old days.

That's later thrash.

This is pure.



I was at this one.



This is just awesome.

brutal technical prog death metal ^^ this is some awesome metal !

Power and thrash metal. Also doom.

I'm with EMB and BodomBeachTerror on this one, the old classic metal:)
Maiden!

I am in love with most thrash, melodic, and heavy, but I am also into Metalcore, and Death Metal.

@ Tele - Actually there is folk metal. I'm not sure it's what you think it might be though,but heres the Wiki page to get an Idea of some of the bigger bands of the genre.

BTW, Some good thrash metal news for Megadeth fans.....NEW ALBUM IN SEPTEMBER!!!! It's called "Endgame". Not much other info, but If I hear anything I'll tell you all. Or you just keep tabs on their Myspace or fansite.

Ozzfan486, you my hero. I really like the sampels of folk metal wikipedia had. Very interesting idea. I just need to mind one in english.

Thrash, Progressive, Heavy

favorites in the respected genres

Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath

Haha, yeah. When you get into metal's subgenres like that it's mostly foreign stuff.

yeah i heard some samples from one of the new megadeth songs, i caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaant wait!!!

Where'd you get a sample dude?

i think it was off their site, ill try to find it again



one thing i gotta say, chris broderick kicks friedmans butt, if i may be so brave to say

Dude, that was KILLER!!!!

Wow I am so stoked for that to come out! Just that little clip sounded sick. That's so awesome. I saw deth in 08 also league. One of the best shows I've seen even though the crowd sucked. Every time I hear a new deth song I get chills man. Daves rythm (hate that word) are so hard I'll never get over it.

Anyways I don't exactly know what metal is my favorite. I suppose it would be thrash, but with other elements mixed in. I love the amount of solos in UA, and I love fast and with feeling. I absolutely hate any singer that just moans and screams into the mic. Why even have lyrics when no human could understand them? "Musically intelligent" metal just hits the right spot.

Oh, and I can't blame you for liking him over Friedman, bodom. He had his ups and downs. I liked what Pitrelli did too a lot though. Really I just love megadeth other than '97-'01.

The System Has Failed was good imo. idk

there is a live leak of Headcrusher on youtube now

you can also call {866.597.6342} and press 1 to listen to the studio version

Whenever you hear Mustaine's guitar work you immediately know its him. His style is so progressive yet you can still mosh to it.

The System has failed has really good songs that I would consider classics but Megadeth still hasn't gone full thrash.

The drums on Headcrusher are just so ****ing great.
