HeadBangers

[JBCBlank]

Heavy metal (often referred to simply as metal) is a genre of rock music that developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s, largely in England and the United States. With roots in blues-rock and psychedelic rock, the bands that created heavy metal developed a thick, massive sound, characterized by highly amplified distortion, extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall loudness. Heavy metal lyrics and performance styles are generally associated with machismo and masculine sexuality.

*throws up a little* Trueness.
But this is not for those who do not love Heavy Metal.
If you love the Metal...
come by pet's come!

Though some of your genres are severely questionable, I'll join. I tend to go by Encyclopaedia Metallum's genres, and a lot of those are definitely abominations on the metal scene. But I listen to a lot of heavy metal, so I'm in.

Korn, System of a Down, and Rammstein are, however, definitely NOT metal. In every sense of the word "not". Just because there's guitars, it's not metal. Korn is nu-'metal', which is definitely not a form of metal - it evolved from a combination of groove metal and metalcore (read: evolved from) with heavy influences from hip-hop and rap. System of a Down is... just no. Rammstein is Neue Deutsche Härte (New German Hardness) isn't a form of metal; the riffs are meant to dance to, not headbang to. The drums are shallow and just carry the beat along.

Dude im joining. Maybe the metallica fan club and dragonforce fan club should merge into this to make it a super thread. So then JBC can i co-own? I love metal and all the forms. And metallica. Whats your favorite band?

 

[JBCBlank]

Alaphlosiam: What's with you're name.. I had to read it like.... 5 times... never mind. Anyway, I'll add you to the list, and according to a Headbanger's Journey, they are a type of Heavy Metal, just a sub-sub-genre. All mixed up and stuff. I tried to find the category table thing, but... I couldn't... I'll keep lookin' though.

Mitchman Is: I'll think about it. as for the merge, ask the other owners and we'll see.

I personally won't be very happy if a bunch of Dragonforce fans come in. (If you can't guess, I don't like Dragonfarce; it's all crap to me.)

Yeah well, Rule #1

And come on... just because you don't like it, doesn't mean other people don't. I don't hate it.. but it's not my favorite. Remember just because you're a headbanger doesn't mean the you have no rules.


Message to all: I have added a Thyme song for this Club.

United by Judas Priest.

I said I wouldn't be happy, not extremely angry or something.

Also, thyme is an herb. Think you meant theme.

 

[JBCBlank]

Yeah... my Spell-check is stupid sometimes.
