I wasn't talking about walking down the street and telling everyone I saw asshole. I was talking about having a conversation with someone and correcting a misconception. If I said something wrong in conversation I'd want to be corrected so I don't look like a dimwit talking about it sometime later on.

Well I've got a friend who strongly believes that slipknot is metal, and all he listens to is metalcore and he feels like he's really a head banger, he's still a cool guy but his music tastes are really fucked up...

Calling people retarded and what not is wrong too really.
I mean, every source tells that bands like Slipknot and whatnot are Metal. Its everywhere in the media.

And I totally agree with that. I would never call someone retarded or even stupid for getting a genre wrong, it's not their fault.

Stop genre wars.

Bill, to be honest, I didn't think you were the guy with the Mohawk, the one with sunglasses was my guess :P

in other news, I've been working my ass off for the last 5 hours, finishing two of my unfinished songs at once. It's gonna be GOOD ;)

I cant wait to hear it. Your Nomad demo has really grown on me. It's great stuff.

Thanks :) the new songs are a bit longer and a bit more varied. Heavier, with a less synthetic and thicker sound and a slightly rawer, more real production on the drumkit.

I decided not to get into genre discussions with my best friend who loves Slipknot because once he gets his mind set on something, he can not be persuaded that he is not absolutely right

Best solution: integrate some actual metal, for someone like that melodic death would certainly work well (not that its a lesser genre, certainly is my favourite), and soon enough you'll have them saying "ha! Slipknot is for pussies!" Then you can laugh at him for being a fan of something he claims is beneath him. Because hypocrisies are funny.

Also, Slipknot have catchy songs. There are many bands that are Metal that I prefer Slipknot over.... Children of Bodom, Nevermore, Korpiklaani, Cannibal Corpse, Shores of Sheol, Iron Maiden...

Only kidding Goatypants, I'm fond of SoS :).

Also, the version of 'Oh My Fucking God' by SYL I have has Devin screaming "GET DOWN THERE.... AND SUCK... MY BUDDIES... COCK!!" half way through.
Yet I listened to the album on my friends iPod (eerr.. last December, but this question just came to me :P) and no such hilarity ensued.

So, WTF is my version?
I must say, its far better anyway... but I'm a curious fellow.

For those of you who have heard the song "Iron," by Ensiferum: has anyone else wondered why there's a sound clip of a bullet ricocheting, Western gunslinger style?

I want to hear good death/black metal bands...
ADVICE NOW!!!

With good songs if it's posible...

People who like slipknot usually either like it because they haven't heard real metal, or they don't like harsh vocals. Before I started listening to metal, I liked bands like korn, slipknot, kse, and system of a down because I hadn't heard anything better. Then I started listening to CoB and started to realize that all of the bands that I liked before were shitty. After I started listening to CoB I listened to everything that I could find and realized that CoB wasn't that great.

Fuck the what? I liked your old sound. SELL OUT!

Just kidding. By raw you don't mean bedroom bm "Rainfall" style right? Also, I could play bass for you if you want. You know, just a thought.

That's pretty much the same thing I experienced, except instead of CoB(which I have come to like) I first noticed Black Sabbath. After that I was done with Slipknot, Korn, Static X, etc. It took real music to make me realize how shitty nu metal is.

well since we're on the topic of genres, i have a question thats been bugging me for awhile. its true that some metalcore falls under the metal catagory. so here's my question, if some does fall under metal, why dont they just remove it from the metalcore genre and call it something else? what do you all think about this?

Metalcore is simply a fusion of Hardcore and Metal. When the Metal influences outweigh the Hardcore it's acceptable. When the Hardcore outweighs the Metal it's not. There's not need for a whole new genre, because it's still Metalcore either way just with different influences.

Well basicaly all metalcore is condesidered METAL becuase the media is too lazy to say what kind of metal it is. Becuase I've seen screamo bands that the MEDIA says is METAL. Really you cant belive anything the media says is metal becuase well they dont know.

that's the worst. also when they call emo and pop-punk "alternative rock," that really pisses me off. How is it "alternative" if every other band sounds like it?

Yeah, I liked black sabbath and stuff like that before I ever started listening to slipknot. Now that I think of it, I don't even know why I thought slipknot was good when I was listening to great music like that.

At least you have a metal station, the closest thing we have here is a rock station that plays emo shit and occasionally a kill switch engage song. I can't listen to radio at all. I used to have serius or XM or something like that that had a metal station, but they mostly played stuff like lamb of god and avenged sevenfold.

Ok, to join in on this Genre debate. I need something cleared up in my mind.
With the bands DevilDriver, Lamb Of God and Machine Head
I can't mentally really put them in Metalcore, But I see them more as New Wave American Metal.
Am I correct in this? Or just silly?

Here in mexico all radio stations are shitty, but there's one that has a metal show that actually has metal on it, but they keep putting glam mexican fag\poser band moderatto and metalcore bands as thrash and that pisses me off, but the show's still good

Haven't listened to Devil Driver but for the other 2 bands i agree, they're new wave american metal, since they don't have the hardcore element that makes most metalcore shitty, that may be just because i like them, but they don't have fag clean vocals (i'm just talking about hardcore clean vocals) and the emo feeling they give metalcore, oh and btw i'm drunk lol
