I've seen the Wembley concert of Metallica (2008 ) and there were quite a few dudes with salt-pepper hair.
Anyway, why do I have to prove to you that metal is the only way?
And yeah, LP does suck
The most probable reason is that most of the typical indian 35+ guys grew up in the contemporary bollywood culture, making them numb headed. Moreover, they imagine their own necks will snap everytime they see true metal heads headbanging. I am saying most, 'cause I know some o' them who love metal as much as any GenX guy.
I too started listening to rock from LP,
-Hybrid Theory : Good
-Meteora : OK
-Reanimation : Recycled Bull****
-Minutes to Midnight : An Awful piece of ***** **** ***!
I am wholly into metal now. LP has run out of candies for the kids.
Metal dosent give you headache... its the most technical and the most complex form of music and unless and until you dont have some sense of music/instruments, you wont enjoy it. Just go and checkout www.ultimate-guitar.com and ask how many of them love metal... I'm sure 70-80% of the guitar players are into metal.. or I can put it that way that 70-80% of the people who are in metal end up playing an instrument . Well, I even have proof to my 13-60yr old statement... how about you checking out Metal : A Headbanger's Journey... or Metallica's S&M Concert ? Metal is a headache only to numb-headed people .
You want non screaming/non growling band ? Why not... afterall thats what prog. metal is all about. Dream Theater, Dio, Iron Mainden, Megadeth(it has raspy vocals but no growling), Eluveitie, etc
But well... LP is teh rulezzZZ!!!1one
+1Anyone here tried Eluveitie??
A swiss symphonic metal band. Try inis mona. Its simply brilliant.
+1 for classicalOne more thing, most of the UGers hate nu-metal.(yes, including slipknot).
And Metal is not for low-minded morons, you need to have sense of music and the techincality behind it, or else you'll not be able to enjoy it. Just like classical, which I also love.
Wow, a classical fan on an Indian forum!!11+1
Eluveitie is brilliant, never thought that folk instruments could be blended into metal so well
+1 for classical
My fav composer is Yanni, along with the "typical" likes of Mozart, Bach and Beethoven
I beg to differ.^They are a power metal with screeching vocals. Their latest album is more of a blackened thrash release
