My favorite music genre is metal, hands down. From the fast, upbeat sounds to the heavy distortion and insane riffs and solos, I just can't get enough. The adrenaline, the speed, the POWER! It just makes my body go into a frenzy that I have to get out.
Some of my favorite bands are Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer, Death Angel, Metallica before the St Anger days, and (yes I consider these guys metal) Avenged Sevenfold. A7X I consider metal because even though they are listed as alternative, their music pounds and shreds just as hard, if not harder, than some of the metal bands out there.
Now there are many subgenres for metal, but I love speed, thrash, and heavy. i can't really say I like death metal. Too jangled up and such for me to get into. 80s and early 90s metal to me was the best ever. I spam my media player with this music
So let the discussion (that's probably been done a thousand times) begin! ^^
