well then I guess I'm out of touch. In the old days metal was just anything hard. Then all of a sudden it became the big thing to have to classify everything in it's own sub category, something I've never cared for or done. To me anything based on fast,heavy guitar riffs is metal. Now all of a sudden it's only metal if it's incomprehensible growling/screaming. Apparently because I still like melody and technique over playing the same power chord as fast as you can over and over it means I have no taste in music. I still listen to the harder stuff as I said earlier, but the growling over top of the music really turns me off now. If most of these bands were instrumental bands I'd absolutely love them.
Guess I'm just a dinosaur
