<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">I wouldn't be musically where I am now without these explored genres. I tried punk at age 12 and was blindly listening to it I admit. Then Nu-metal/hard rock and alternative rock at 14 which I also admit and even some rap before punk rock. After I finally decided to move up to the next level. I thought the music I had originally listened to didn't appeal to me anymore and was looking for a change to find something more suitable to my tastes and one summer basically changed my life musically as I expanded genres from my own curiosity. I went for the more underground and started dis-liking the [[mainstream]] contents (especially for their [[angst]] and too much lovey-dovey topics) and found appreciation for many kinds of music. The bands that influenced me the most are; [[Tool (band)|Tool]], early [[Metallica]] and classics like [[Pink Floyd]] and [[Led Zeppelin]] which extended my genre-liking soon to breach into the [[death metal]] and heavy metal realms. Tool was well..., more underground before ''[[10,000 days]]'' and at first it was a little difficult to grasp its music after awhile. I found out that the band was completely amazing in musicianship and so much more that it would be hard to summarize it here, they are nearly perfect, a great [[progressive rock|progressive]] [[alternative metal]] band. They have interesting backgrounds and stories behind them and have great artistic [[music videos]] that compliment their music. Their songs are very heartfelt and just go beyond reason and make you want to decipher their lyrics and their hidden messages are a nice touch as well. Metallica, yes they maybe are overly popular now but before they were a great band and I could even hear why the old stuff was better. They helped me get out of the hard rock and into [[Thrash metal|thrashy]] metal and into subjects different to me. The crazy part about first listening to Metallica was because I was into [[punk rock|punk music]] at the time and [[Sum 41]] did a cover of "[[For Whom the Bell Tolls]]" and I enjoyed the song a lot so I asked myself hmm... lets try Metallica they sound like a cool band. So I first listened to ''[[Ride the Lightning]]'' and was amazed by their album and it made me want to get the rest of their CDs so I asked some people online of what was good for me to get and I understood why they said anything until ''[[Load (album)|Load]]'' was truly buy-able. My favorite song was "[[Master of Puppets (song)|Master of Puppets]]" and favorite instrumental by them (even now) is "[[The Call of Ktulu]]". Led Zeppelin, no question was a band I have actually never listened to until some seven years ago (2000) and I really enjoyed listening to them as they got me into the mood for what metal should be like. I got into them after watching a video somewhere and I wondered what the song was and it turned out to be "[[Black Dog (song)|Black Dog]]" and I tried their ''[[Led Zeppelin IV]]'' album and was [[Blown Away (song)|blown away]] (halo references anyone? - the video I saw was a halo 2 vid). My favorite song by them is "[[Kashmir (song)|Kashmir]]" as it feels like a stretching desert type of song and I really enjoy listening to it. [[Pink Floyd]]... I liked their progressive-psychedelic-space rock style and it really expanded the kind of music I would listen to later on. I can't remember the time I started with them but it was around the time when I picked up on Led Zeppelin. "[[Brain Damage (song)|Brain Damage]]" is one my all time favorite songs by them. Currently "[[(Don't Fear) The Reaper]]" is my favorite love song (or at least to me feels like one since it makes me think of a certain someone I loved) by the band [[Blue Öyster Cult]] who live pretty close by to me.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">For some reason I think I've always known in my teen years that there was music out there that was "larger than life" or heavier but at the time I looked at it like it was just separated only by "[[hair metal]]" (was very interested with the genre but I looked at it like traditional heavy metal and even tried [[Quiet Riot]] one time), [[death metal]] and some form of music that was less extreme, something like [[thrash metal|thrash]] but I did not wish to explore the underground because of the initial thought of it as evil/gory (or other questionable themes) or concerning too much "love" for my buck and that the fans were just crazed with fandom and were simply geeks and nerds with [[hoodies]] and all that. I realized how wrong I was as I saw what a lot of different bands looked like, I was amazed to find out that some were as normal looking as me, while the fans pretty much acted a bit like me and that's basically how my appreciation for real heavy metal was finally won in the Summer of 2005.</span> |

< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">Before all this I was interested in classics and started listening to various bands and they helped me find a different style and basically took me back to their time which to me, is a great feeling. I think these bands were meant for me and think I finally found myself music-wise, I thank them all. </span> |
||
< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">Tool actually really did help me like a tool would, I used them and they influenced me very much and now I can freely find bands that are worth a listen or two, so I thank them very very much for directing me the right way. </span> |
||
< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">The band [[Alice in Chains]] was formed in the year of my birth (1987) and feel as if they were a perfect find on my part and were another band that helped me to "find myself."</span> |

< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">[[Meshuggah]] was actually the very first "[[death metal]]" band I have ever listened to following bands like [[Fear Factory]] and [[Nile (band)|Nile]] also being some of my firsts. I never had anything more anotonal and heavier in my whole discography than them (and maybe still for anotonal) and then started what I only knew as "[[Extreme metal]]" and then started with the [[melodic death metal]] bands; [[In Flames]], [[Dark Tranquillity]], [[At the Gates]], [[Soilwork]] and I even went to [[black metal]] somehow with; [[Ancient (band)|Ancient]], [[Marduk (band)|Marduk]], [[Naglfar (band)|Naglfar]] and [[Vesperian Sorrow]] and the albums being early ones first (for my first impressions I'll just let you know I was scared of a Naglfar song for sounding extremely evil and now it sounds like a normal extreme metal song to me). I also listened to ISIS around this time (actually before Meshuggah) and I thought of them as extreme metal then. My taste went for melo-death and here I am now. I should also mention that I thought those melodic death metal bands were true [[death metal]] and came to realize when I joined Wikipedia that they definitely were not. At the present (October 2007), I don't go for anything Satanic or Murder-Cult which is what I thought of black metal when I finished listening to those albums and that means no death metal of that type either. This means the bands that truly stand by their actions or beliefs with [[Gorgoroth]], [[Mayhem (band)|Mayhem]] and [[Burzum]] being examples of this.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">I am currently awe-inspired in the same way [[Tool (band)|Tool]] has inspired me with the [[Australia|Australian]] [[progressive metal]] band, [[Alchemist (band)|Alchemist]] and find them an eerily-perfect-find next to the band of the same genre, nearly same influence, (but different sub-genres), Tool. They are basically just what I've been currently and specifically been looking for in a band. I find them being very like me (with Nick Wall looking very a like) personality-wise/even action-wise and I even started to dress like them 6 months ago 4 months before I knew they existed with that semi professional-casual look. They are somewhat simplistic, ordinary people on the outside with a hidden complexity within like me in a way and that's something that would never be understood if they were to meet me without knowing whats beyond my shell. Some of their lyrics are basically some thoughts I have or been having. I ordered their Australian version and all I need now are those early demos. One interest that I have similar to theirs is [[mountain biking]] or biking in general which I find very cool. They are a great band to me, I love their style and I like the people who play it as well.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">I like to practice [[death growl]]ing which is a talent I didn't know I had, till I tried it in February 2007 and I think… I am quite good at it. I think I should use it and be in a band as one but I'm more the sideshow than the leader, even so, they still can't be without the sideshow. My growls are low and quite deep because my voice is apparently low but I can also change my tone to other types of growls. Some styles I have are; deep and low, mid-range, some slower, some faster and some a bit higher pitched and lately very high pitched shrieks. My core death growls are similar to [[Opeth]]'s growls which are low and deep. I experiment and practice them to see what kind of range I can develop and I have currently been practicing shrieking vocals of [[black metal]], which I might say it is almost as good as my death metal vocals. As for black metal vocals, I would say they are higher pitched and focus on a "[[Vocal folds#False vocal folds|False vocal fold]] sound." If I could compare myself to certain artists on how I typically sound like, I would go with: [[Ivar Bjørnson]] of [[Enslaved (band)|Enslaved]] or Ken Sorceron of [[Abigail Williams (band)|Abigail Williams]] (I know his [[AOL Instant Messenger|aim]] SN). It is a little hidden addition to who I am. I have all this but one thing I don't know how to do is [[Singing|sing]] and I hope to maybe be able to sing [[clean vocals|cleanly]] one day. Besides this my sister is a profound chorus singer but it's a little hard to cope with her liking of mainstream music with the dreaded genres of: [[screamo]]/[[alternative rock]]/[[alternative metal]]/emo/mainstream rap/r&b, etc bands/groups but thankfully I think she is getting out of that hole and is looking for something heavier: which is [[metalcore]] and now listens to [[Gojira (band)|Gojira]] and is just scraping the surface of death metal. For more on my vocals you can see [[User:CircafuciX/Vocals]].</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">As for guitar playing, I think I would be a natural guitar player. I want to play and will most likely learn how to play [[bass guitar]], [[rhythm guitar]] (or regular [[Electric guitar|guitar]]) and maybe even [[acoustic guitar]] as well especially in my spare time.</span> |
||
< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">As for drums, I have less interest in using them but I like to tap beats to my songs sometimes when I'm bored. I have a good ear for rhythms and can almost manipulate them through my mind and even can create instrumentals in my head that sound like no other. Also my father was in a [[jazz band]] as a [[Percussionist]] in Paris and used the [[Washboard#The washboard as a musical instrument|washboard]] and drums which shows that the music genes are obviously there as a possible occupation for me musically.</span> |
||
< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">My first instrument I played (with some consciousness) is the [[Recorder (instrument)|recorder]] and later the [[Clarinet]] (Almost picked the [[violin]]) which I obviously didn't want to continue after middle school. As a child, I rarely listened to music it was basically anything that was playing around me or some random tapes that my parents would play in the car on long trips. I noticed I had a good ear on sounds and started humming back game music in my head for e.g. I started to listen to music basically at the age of 13 but my taste in music was horrible back then and was into mainstream music. Now, I am looking for bands that fit my style or just to try something new that I could get used to and respect like everyone should.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">"I listen to various forms of music with nothing out of my grasp, just the things that don’t need that clenching, only a walk to the trash bin, or something too far from reach, I'll make sure to jump for it."</span> |
||
< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">I like it complex especially in [[lyrics]] so that means, for a song to be a masterpiece it must be complex in lyrics and atmosphere, if too definitive of lyrics when you hear it, then therefore it is [[mediocre]] in complexity. (but doesn't mean that it is trash (not thrash) music)</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">I like to try out new genres and bands using Wikipedia for the sources, so I can get an idea of how they will sound like, before I go on the "go-ahead."</span> |

< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">[[Ettore Rigotti]] is basically my reflection as a rocker, a metalhead, a soloist with some kind of musical gift but I just take it as a kind of example. He somewhat acts like me behind those glasses, hair and cigarette.</span> |
||
< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">I am currently interested in the Australian metal scene and wish to see whats "down under" :) in [[Australian heavy metal]]. Recently (2009 - {almost 2010}) I been looking for new genres to maybe try or try more of, including: (of course) progressive metal, doom metal, folk metal, death/doom, symph black, sludge metal, [[industrial metal]], [[hardcore punk]] and its subgenres (such as [[thrashcore]], [[crust punk]], crossover thrash, [[powerviolence]], "original hardcore" and some others), original heavy metal/hard rock, [[progressive rock]], [[psychedelic rock]] and hardcore [[electronic music]] or a mix thereof.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">Guitar solos and double guitar solos that make you cry for more, ballads that bring you back in time, sounds that teach the ears, distant riffs and death growl-clean vocal virtuosos. Genres: [[melodic death metal]], [[Death metal#Progressive death metal|progressive death metal]], [[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]], [[symphonic metal]], [[power metal]], [[progressive metal]], [[folk metal]], [[Viking metal]] and anyone who respects true compositions of any form and anything that sets everything apart from the norm (hey that rhymes! :) ). My favorite metal genre is progressive death metal or in rock terms: metal/progressive influenced-[[psychedelic rock]] or if there's a death metal/extreme band that mixes psychedelia I'm way for it! [[User talk:CircafuciX/My Endless Spiral|Tell me]] about a band if you know of one! (by e-mail or IM)</span> |

< |
<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">These genres need more exploration but it's just a matter of time before I like them a lot. Genres: [[speed metal]], [[industrial metal]], [[sludge metal]]. When people wear a band shirt to a band I like (especially underground ones). When a song I like is playing in the cafeteria, I am attracted to people who have that band member look if you know what I mean, I feel as if I can get along with them very, very well.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">Basically genres that mix with other genres that make it more interesting and feel more accomplished or I actually would like more mixing with new genres and I am a sucker for experimental types of music. I think there is actually, pretty solid rap out there, which would of coarse be underground rap that go for a more rock feel to their music and stay away from the usual contents of rap, hip-hop and r&b. It's just what you look for and what you can find. Very carefully chosen true [[Rap]]/[[Hip-Hop]]/[[R&B]], then again it is more a respect for specifics, than a commitment to the entire genre itself (which makes it a hailstorm in hell's chance that there is a good artist out there than most radio and TRL trash that is played). Also [[metalcore]], nicely done [[hard rock]], [[bagpipe]]s and the use of any instrument in music.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">When bands lose their gifted style like Metallica or any band with that same untimely fate. [[Ragtime|Oldies music]] and anything similar makes me sleep. People that take on the slam-on approach to music with no concern for content or style that it just makes it unlistenable in the end and the best song just becomes their music video and who would of thought that, that would be their "best song"? When people think of me as evil or something just because I listen to death metal/extreme metal, I'm sure all other metalheads think the same for the mainstreamers.</span> |

<span style="font-size:small; color:silver">People who are very musically narrow. The following music is basically walk-out-trash to me: [[country (music)|country]], [[Emo (music)|emo]], [[Punk (music)|punk]], [[nu-metal]], [[Pop music|pop]] and also mainstream [[rap]] which I '''can't stand'''…. People who listen to what I think is deathly, horrible, trashy music. Those singers that sound like they are "pretty boys" and most likely are, it just sickens me. When an annoying, horrible song comes on at the cafeteria. When someone is blasting a song I hate near me (I feel like going over there and destroying what is making that horrible noise but I control myself…). When someone says your music "sucks" to me (which I don't see anyone doing) -I will respond by ignoring you and too bad if you want or like to get this kind of attention, I will let this attention '''suffer before me'''.

If there is any hope that these bands aren't as bad as they are then I might go ahead. As for black metal subgenres: [[melodic black metal]], [[Symphonic black metal|symph black]] and [[blackened death metal]] is probably the furthest I will go. Genres: [[gothic metal]], trve/kvlt [[black metal]], some types of [[doom metal]], almost all [[grindcore]] and the suicidal [[drone metal]].</span> |

<span style="color:silver">I have seen the light (or a shade of light) for some grindcore (some appreciation here and there), doom metal (half-way), gothic metal (1/4 way/to a min), because when I look at it '''some''' of their lyrical usages might actually appeal to me, I would like to thank [[Alchemist (band)|Alchemist]] for their grindcore twinges but I would stay away from the stuff I don't like (such as above^).</span> |

Force
I wouldn't be musically where I am now without these explored genres. I tried punk at age 12 and was blindly listening to it I admit. Then Nu-metal/hard rock and alternative rock at 14 which I also admit and even some rap before punk rock. After I finally decided to move up to the next level. I thought the music I had originally listened to didn't appeal to me anymore and was looking for a change to find something more suitable to my tastes and one summer basically changed my life musically as I expanded genres from my own curiosity. I went for the more underground and started dis-liking the mainstream contents (especially for their angst and too much lovey-dovey topics) and found appreciation for many kinds of music. The bands that influenced me the most are; Tool, early Metallica and classics like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin which extended my genre-liking soon to breach into the death metal and heavy metal realms. Tool was well..., more underground before 10,000 days and at first it was a little difficult to grasp its music after awhile. I found out that the band was completely amazing in musicianship and so much more that it would be hard to summarize it here, they are nearly perfect, a great progressive alternative metal band. They have interesting backgrounds and stories behind them and have great artistic music videos that compliment their music. Their songs are very heartfelt and just go beyond reason and make you want to decipher their lyrics and their hidden messages are a nice touch as well. Metallica, yes they maybe are overly popular now but before they were a great band and I could even hear why the old stuff was better. They helped me get out of the hard rock and into thrashy metal and into subjects different to me. The crazy part about first listening to Metallica was because I was into punk music at the time and Sum 41 did a cover of "For Whom the Bell Tolls" and I enjoyed the song a lot so I asked myself hmm... lets try Metallica they sound like a cool band. So I first listened to Ride the Lightning and was amazed by their album and it made me want to get the rest of their CDs so I asked some people online of what was good for me to get and I understood why they said anything until Load was truly buy-able. My favorite song was "Master of Puppets" and favorite instrumental by them (even now) is "The Call of Ktulu". Led Zeppelin, no question was a band I have actually never listened to until some seven years ago (2000) and I really enjoyed listening to them as they got me into the mood for what metal should be like. I got into them after watching a video somewhere and I wondered what the song was and it turned out to be "Black Dog" and I tried their Led Zeppelin IV album and was blown away (halo references anyone? - the video I saw was a halo 2 vid). My favorite song by them is "Kashmir" as it feels like a stretching desert type of song and I really enjoy listening to it. Pink Floyd... I liked their progressive-psychedelic-space rock style and it really expanded the kind of music I would listen to later on. I can't remember the time I started with them but it was around the time when I picked up on Led Zeppelin. "Brain Damage" is one my all time favorite songs by them. Currently "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" is my favorite love song (or at least to me feels like one since it makes me think of a certain someone I loved) by the band Blue Öyster Cult who live pretty close by to me. For some reason I think I've always known in my teen years that there was music out there that was "larger than life" or heavier but at the time I looked at it like it was just separated only by "hair metal" (was very interested with the genre but I looked at it like traditional heavy metal and even tried Quiet Riot one time), death metal and some form of music that was less extreme, something like thrash but I did not wish to explore the underground because of the initial thought of it as evil/gory (or other questionable themes) or concerning too much "love" for my buck and that the fans were just crazed with fandom and were simply geeks and nerds with hoodies and all that. I realized how wrong I was as I saw what a lot of different bands looked like, I was amazed to find out that some were as normal looking as me, while the fans pretty much acted a bit like me and that's basically how my appreciation for real heavy metal was finally won in the Summer of 2005. Before all this I was interested in classics and started listening to various bands and they helped me find a different style and basically took me back to their time which to me, is a great feeling. I think these bands were meant for me and think I finally found myself music-wise, I thank them all. Tool actually really did help me like a tool would, I used them and they influenced me very much and now I can freely find bands that are worth a listen or two, so I thank them very very much for directing me the right way. The band Alice in Chains was formed in the year of my birth (1987) and feel as if they were a perfect find on my part and were another band that helped me to "find myself." Meshuggah was actually the very first "death metal" band I have ever listened to following bands like Fear Factory and Nile also being some of my firsts. I never had anything more anotonal and heavier in my whole discography than them (and maybe still for anotonal) and then started what I only knew as "Extreme metal" and then started with the melodic death metal bands; In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, At the Gates, Soilwork and I even went to black metal somehow with; Ancient, Marduk, Naglfar and Vesperian Sorrow and the albums being early ones first (for my first impressions I'll just let you know I was scared of a Naglfar song for sounding extremely evil and now it sounds like a normal extreme metal song to me). I also listened to ISIS around this time (actually before Meshuggah) and I thought of them as extreme metal then. My taste went for melo-death and here I am now. I should also mention that I thought those melodic death metal bands were true death metal and came to realize when I joined Wikipedia that they definitely were not. At the present (October 2007), I don't go for anything Satanic or Murder-Cult which is what I thought of black metal when I finished listening to those albums and that means no death metal of that type either. This means the bands that truly stand by their actions or beliefs with Gorgoroth, Mayhem and Burzum being examples of this. I am currently awe-inspired in the same way Tool has inspired me with the Australian progressive metal band, Alchemist and find them an eerily-perfect-find next to the band of the same genre, nearly same influence, (but different sub-genres), Tool. They are basically just what I've been currently and specifically been looking for in a band. I find them being very like me (with Nick Wall looking very a like) personality-wise/even action-wise and I even started to dress like them 6 months ago 4 months before I knew they existed with that semi professional-casual look. They are somewhat simplistic, ordinary people on the outside with a hidden complexity within like me in a way and that's something that would never be understood if they were to meet me without knowing whats beyond my shell. Some of their lyrics are basically some thoughts I have or been having. I ordered their Australian version and all I need now are those early demos. One interest that I have similar to theirs is mountain biking or biking in general which I find very cool. They are a great band to me, I love their style and I like the people who play it as well. I like to practice death growling which is a talent I didn't know I had, till I tried it in February 2007 and I think… I am quite good at it. I think I should use it and be in a band as one but I'm more the sideshow than the leader, even so, they still can't be without the sideshow. My growls are low and quite deep because my voice is apparently low but I can also change my tone to other types of growls. Some styles I have are; deep and low, mid-range, some slower, some faster and some a bit higher pitched and lately very high pitched shrieks. My core death growls are similar to Opeth's growls which are low and deep. I experiment and practice them to see what kind of range I can develop and I have currently been practicing shrieking vocals of black metal, which I might say it is almost as good as my death metal vocals. As for black metal vocals, I would say they are higher pitched and focus on a "False vocal fold sound." If I could compare myself to certain artists on how I typically sound like, I would go with: Ivar Bjørnson of Enslaved or Ken Sorceron of Abigail Williams (I know his aim SN). It is a little hidden addition to who I am. I have all this but one thing I don't know how to do is sing and I hope to maybe be able to sing cleanly one day. Besides this my sister is a profound chorus singer but it's a little hard to cope with her liking of mainstream music with the dreaded genres of: screamo/alternative rock/alternative metal/emo/mainstream rap/r&b, etc bands/groups but thankfully I think she is getting out of that hole and is looking for something heavier: which is metalcore and now listens to Gojira and is just scraping the surface of death metal. For more on my vocals you can see User:CircafuciX/Vocals. As for guitar playing, I think I would be a natural guitar player. I want to play and will most likely learn how to play bass guitar, rhythm guitar (or regular guitar) and maybe even acoustic guitar as well especially in my spare time. As for drums, I have less interest in using them but I like to tap beats to my songs sometimes when I'm bored. I have a good ear for rhythms and can almost manipulate them through my mind and even can create instrumentals in my head that sound like no other. Also my father was in a jazz band as a Percussionist in Paris and used the washboard and drums which shows that the music genes are obviously there as a possible occupation for me musically. My first instrument I played (with some consciousness) is the recorder and later the Clarinet (Almost picked the violin) which I obviously didn't want to continue after middle school. As a child, I rarely listened to music it was basically anything that was playing around me or some random tapes that my parents would play in the car on long trips. I noticed I had a good ear on sounds and started humming back game music in my head for e.g. I started to listen to music basically at the age of 13 but my taste in music was horrible back then and was into mainstream music. Now, I am looking for bands that fit my style or just to try something new that I could get used to and respect like everyone should. "I listen to various forms of music with nothing out of my grasp, just the things that don’t need that clenching, only a walk to the trash bin, or something too far from reach, I'll make sure to jump for it." I like it complex especially in lyrics so that means, for a song to be a masterpiece it must be complex in lyrics and atmosphere, if too definitive of lyrics when you hear it, then therefore it is mediocre in complexity. (but doesn't mean that it is trash (not thrash) music) "I don't care what language a band is singing, it's all about if their compositions are in check." I like to try out new genres and bands using Wikipedia for the sources, so I can get an idea of how they will sound like, before I go on the "go-ahead." Ettore Rigotti is basically my reflection as a rocker, a metalhead, a soloist with some kind of musical gift but I just take it as a kind of example. He somewhat acts like me behind those glasses, hair and cigarette. I am currently interested in the Australian metal scene and wish to see whats "down under" :) in Australian heavy metal. Recently (2009 - {almost 2010}) I been looking for new genres to maybe try or try more of, including: (of course) progressive metal, doom metal, folk metal, death/doom, symph black, sludge metal, industrial metal, hardcore punk and its subgenres (such as thrashcore, crust punk, crossover thrash, powerviolence, "original hardcore" and some others), original heavy metal/hard rock, progressive rock, psychedelic rock and hardcore electronic music or a mix thereof. There is a big chance that whatever band/album/song I may be listening to, that I'm actually editing it. Interesting music articles:
Thrashy/Deathy sounds uncredited:
I love:[edit]Guitar solos and double guitar solos that make you cry for more, ballads that bring you back in time, sounds that teach the ears, distant riffs and death growl-clean vocal virtuosos. Genres: melodic death metal, progressive death metal, heavy metal, symphonic metal, power metal, progressive metal, folk metal, Viking metal and anyone who respects true compositions of any form and anything that sets everything apart from the norm (hey that rhymes! :) ). My favorite metal genre is progressive death metal or in rock terms: metal/progressive influenced-psychedelic rock or if there's a death metal/extreme band that mixes psychedelia I'm way for it! Tell me about a band if you know of one! (by e-mail or IM) I like:[edit]These genres need more exploration but it's just a matter of time before I like them a lot. Genres: speed metal, industrial metal, sludge metal. When people wear a band shirt to a band I like (especially underground ones). When a song I like is playing in the cafeteria, I am attracted to people who have that band member look if you know what I mean, I feel as if I can get along with them very, very well. I'm ok with:[edit]Basically genres that mix with other genres that make it more interesting and feel more accomplished or I actually would like more mixing with new genres and I am a sucker for experimental types of music. I think there is actually, pretty solid rap out there, which would of coarse be underground rap that go for a more rock feel to their music and stay away from the usual contents of rap, hip-hop and r&b. It's just what you look for and what you can find. Very carefully chosen true Rap/Hip-Hop/R&B, then again it is more a respect for specifics, than a commitment to the entire genre itself (which makes it a hailstorm in hell's chance that there is a good artist out there than most radio and TRL trash that is played). Also metalcore, nicely done hard rock, bagpipes and the use of any instrument in music. I dislike:[edit]When bands lose their gifted style like Metallica or any band with that same untimely fate. Oldies music and anything similar makes me sleep. People that take on the slam-on approach to music with no concern for content or style that it just makes it unlistenable in the end and the best song just becomes their music video and who would of thought that, that would be their "best song"? When people think of me as evil or something just because I listen to death metal/extreme metal, I'm sure all other metalheads think the same for the mainstreamers. I am disgusted by:[edit]People who are very musically narrow. The following music is basically walk-out-trash to me: country, emo, punk, nu-metal, pop and also mainstream rap which I can't stand…. People who listen to what I think is deathly, horrible, trashy music. Those singers that sound like they are "pretty boys" and most likely are, it just sickens me. When an annoying, horrible song comes on at the cafeteria. When someone is blasting a song I hate near me (I feel like going over there and destroying what is making that horrible noise but I control myself…). When someone says your music "sucks" to me (which I don't see anyone doing) -I will respond by ignoring you and too bad if you want or like to get this kind of attention, I will let this attention suffer before me. Thank you horrid and hair-ripping-annoying people for existing. I might try or I'm unsure of:[edit]Basically I find these genres evil beyond reason (but just doing it on purpose because they can), depressing, profane, way too dark for me, gory, unacceptable content-wise (iykwim), maybe too different for me to readily accept and even cult-like. If there is any hope that these bands aren't as bad as they are then I might go ahead. As for black metal subgenres: melodic black metal, symph black and blackened death metal is probably the furthest I will go. Genres: gothic metal, trve/kvlt black metal, some types of doom metal, almost all grindcore and the suicidal drone metal. I have seen the light (or a shade of light) for some grindcore (some appreciation here and there), doom metal (half-way), gothic metal (1/4 way/to a min), because when I look at it some of their lyrical usages might actually appeal to me, I would like to thank Alchemist for their grindcore twinges but I would stay away from the stuff I don't like (such as above^). Complete list of genres I listen to[edit]For some genres there's a certain limitation because I'm not as interested in those genres. I don't hate genres, only certain artists. It's hard for me to hate music in general. Genres are listed of how much of the certain type I listen to. The ranges are as follows and have a specific number starting from the two extremely low areas; elements to a song: 0, entire song: 1, next are more entirely an album - a band and etc:; very low: 2, low: 3, moderate: 4, moderately high: 5, high: 6, very high: 7, extremely high: 8; favorites or selected few are in parenthesis Bands I really enjoy listening to[edit]Note: This is not in any way my favorites list. I will list the album that started it all as well. I will also list what the bands genres are (even the very minor genres that may just be an element) despite the official genres here.
Bands I listen to[edit]I removed how long I listened to the bands since it is too hard to keep editing it after a time. My music listening history should clear it up for an in general view of when I listened to these bands. I've also added movie/game soundtracks I enjoy as well. * at the end of the name, denotes one of my favorites of all time.
Bands I used to like, *cough*, *cough*[edit]Why I listened to these bands for a time is beyond me...:
Bands I hated/disliked long ago on my first listen[edit](and most likely still do)
