[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 2816863, member: 35678"] So, who here likes metal? Nu, Power, Black, Gothic, Thrash, Classic, Metalcore, et al. Who's your favourite band, your favourite song, your favourite concert, etc? How did you get into metal and the metal scene? Let's just chat about metal :D ------ For me, I like a lot fo the newer metal. Mainly, this is a product of my enviroment - I've never been exposed to Classic Metal (Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, etc) but I [u]am[/u] quite familiar with post-1990 metal. My favourite major bands are: Bloodsimple, Burn The Priest (that's proto-Lamb of God for you music buffs), Children of Bodom, Coal Chamber, Crossbreed, The Crown, Demon Hunter, Disturbed, Dope, Dry Kill Logic, Flaw, Godsmack, Gorgoroth, Killswitch Engage, KoRn, Lamb of God, Marilyn Manson, Motograter, MuDvAyNe, Mushroomhead, Otep, A Perfect Circle, Rammstein, Rhapsody, Shadows Fall, Skinlab, SkipKnoT, Static-X and System of a Down. For local Metal, I like: Annelid (RIP), Children of Tragedy, dreadnaut, Figure Four, JAW, Loco (RIP), Port Amoral and Still Village. I initially got my first taste of metal and/or rock in grade 6 when my friend introduced me to Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park. From there, in Grade 8 I bought quite a few CDs with Christmas money, including Mudvayne, Disturbed, Godsmack and SOAD. I was more into the rock scene at this point, but I was progressively getting heavier in my taste of music. I bought the CD IOWA (by Slipknot) off of a guy from school but didn't like it and sold it quickly. Grade 9 I was getting into Linkin Park again as they had released a new album which was AWESOME (at the time :p). Grade 10 rolled around and I was getting full into metal. Went to my first concert which was for a (Christian) Rap-Rock group named Thousand Foot Krutch (similar to Linkin Park in many ways). At this point in time, I was a "Nu Metal ONLY" metalhead, and I was more than a bit jaded about my musical taste. That summer I went and saw Finger Eleven in concert, which was another awesome concert (although again not really metal). Grade 11 came and I was getting into some different metal, more thrashy and blackened. Dry Kill Logic and Lamb of God were introduced to me, as well as Killswitch Engage. I was totally into Mudvaynes new album which was commng up and I was seeing a few local shows. Grade 12 is and has been the best year for me. I am getting into all sorts of metal sub-genres through a co-worker who is in a band and I lost a lotof my jaded veiws of other metal. Still not into Classic Metal though. However, Metalcore, Thrash, Black and Power Metal are all genres which I am really getting into now. Children of Bodom are a wicked Hybrid of Black and Power metal and I can't say enough of them.

This year has been possibly the best of my life. So manygood things have been happening, especially since I've been going to so many shows as of late and getting into the local music scene. --- So, how about you folks? Nightfall, you and I had some banter going on in that pre-crash PHB2 thread, so I'd love to hear from you, among the otehr EN Worlders :D [/QUOTE]
