dude, static-x, Wisconsin Death Trip was like the best stuff ever. I like the newer one Shadowzone a lot too... Havent listened to the newer stuff in awhile though. Mudvayne and Static-X still rock my speakers from time to time. Im also into the German stuff, i.e. Rammstein, Megaherz, Eisbrecher, Oomph!, all that stuff. I listen to that or hardcore

in two thousand four, it was HARDCORE

METAL & HardCore all the way
thats my saying ^^^^

hardcore and metal are kinda the same really... just opposites

HardCore - bounce round ya room with a HUGE smile on ya face!

Metal - bounce round ya room pissed off and trow the coffie table out the window!

S'all good :)

Plus Metal ent all the same ya know, there is some metal i don't like, but i love most of it :) its nice to just go to a club and mosh then get trown across the floor. but the thing is you always get helped up (unless its a slipknot gig or something) so they ent that bad at all!

Like you say there is loads of variation on any genre of music really. Not all metal has to be angry, wack some power metal on enjoy the spped and constant double-bass, but it isn't angry stuff, can be quite mellow at times!

like said above, not all metal has to be about violence and agression, there are metal ballads aswel, gothic metla that speaks of emotions, epic metal that tells stories and all kindsa other stuff.

It's true that a lot of people that like metal will also enjoy a fair bit of techno or gabber.

That's a good question: Why is metal appealing?

I believe it's appealing to some of us, because metal is almost the musical interpretation of Nietzsche's nihilism theory, which puts up front the fact that we human beings are mortal and that we have a finite quantity of time here on earth, and no "other world" after we die. Those who appreciate metal are for the most part, accepting the fact that them too, are mortals, and thus decide to live the life they want the way they want it. People should stop thinking that metal is all about death and destruction (even though I aknowledge thay some of it does). In fact, the nihilism from metal is more of a positive message, as it tells you to live your life to the fullest since you're not here forever.

Moreover, metal music has some of the world's greatest musicians, which make its music one of the most complex and beautiful to the experienced ear that listens to it ^_^
