Where are my fellow metal heads?
-Anti-Crusade happy Christian metal aka black metal. Christianity has a notorious history in certain parts of Europe so some black metal is against that; not necessarily God.
-Cello "metal" (just instrumental really)
-Christian metal: not bad. No screamo/death growls.
-Gothic. This is arguably the best band. IMO, that would be Deathstars for this genre.
-Folk metal. They have songs about drinking, instrumental (first 40-80s kind of repetitive; it picks up. It's a metal playing folk but I'll still toss it under fold metal), melodic (nice solo starting at 2min 34s, and just...pretty nice stuff
-Symphonic. The bands are different enough (because I know metal can all sound the same; sometimes they do). Two of the most popular bands teaming up
Apparently there's symphonic death.
-Techno -ish metal. Best are, IMO, Blood Stain Child and Amaranthe
Ok... you get the idea now :P But just look/skim at all these friggin' genres
Aside from being awesome, I suspect I like metal because I like actual metal and wish I was a robot.
