Metal is probably the worst music genre out of all.

[Magikian]

Think about it.

A huge emphasis on electric guitar, completely retarded fanbase spanning almost every sub-genre and a horrible stigma.


What the hell is there to like about it?






Why in god's name do I love it so?

 

[Duality Jack]

Because its fun.

Rap, Country and Gospel are worse still, as are the associated fantards.

Don't start that.


I can counter country right fast, in fact direct your eyeballs to this motherfucker.

Crunkcore screamo. :V

Oh, come on, Gospel is great.
Gospel is the thing from whence all rock and roll and devil music flows.

if you abandon gospel and country you lose most of the stylistic approaches of pretty much every genre
and if you abandon rap, well you're just a bad person

 

[Taren Fox]

Metal > J-Pop

 

[Kelo]

I agree with OP and I also agree that Gospel, Country, and Rap are not bad, just cause a genre is flooded with bad talent doesn't mean there are not good artists that actually sound good. Same with metal I consider the skill and sound of Dragonforce and Apocalyptica to be quite nice and very pretty.

Also if you want something out of the ordinary and absolutely amazing check out Zen Albatross (yes he is using original Gameboys to mix live), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaWrHl60VVE

 

[Aden]

Yeah it probably is
Probably means I'm a bad person somehow for liking it so much

Metal also has a heavy emphasis on drums and that balances out the focus on electric guitar too.

 

[Beta_7x]

LIES! THIS IS A LIE! It's the best. Nuff said.

 

[VoidBat]

Because just like porn it gives you a raging boner.

 

[Captain Spyro]

My view is this:

Metal + orchestra or metal with keyboards can indeed equal win.

What's wrong with Hip Hop and Country?

 

[Aden]

I like ALL music...except for country and rap ;D

teehee

\But seriously, I would like to slap people who say this.

Metal doesn't know shit about drums. Double pedal + blast beats =/= skill. It's boring. It's just speed. No groove or feel or precision. Fuck that.

Listening to the wrong metal, bro.

Wrong.

Opeth
Municipal Waste
Mensrea

All of these bands make your argument a moot point.

And there's more where that came from...
