Any metalheads out there?

So I was wondering if there are any metalheads here on mygaming. And when I say metal I do not mean Metallica, that is not metal, that is freaking pop-rock.

I mean bands like Carcass, Chimera, As I Lay Dying, Norther, For Today, Dark Tranquility, Kalmah, Gardenian, Parkway Drive, Insomnium, Soul Embraced, etc., etc. Real metal bands as in death metal, metalcore, deathcore and all the of the other genres. Anyone here listen to any (or similar) of these bands?

I'm a pretty serious metalhead, although I think attitudes like "that is not metal, that is freaking pop-rock" are pointlessly divisive and kinda childish. Metal is metal.

Anyway, some of my favourite bands include Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson, In Flames, Turisas, Children of Bodom, Carcass, Lamb of God, Cradle of Filth, Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Eluveitie, Bathory, Opeth, Amorphis, Finntroll, My Dying Bride, Tiamat, Dark Tranquility, Dissection, Ensiferum, Korpiklaani, Satyricon, Enslaved, Morgul, Mastodon, Tyr, blah blah blah.

Lol, I just don't like metallica ever since they went commercial. Their first albums were and always will be legendary, but these days they are all about the money not the music.

Holy craaaap!!! I'm so jealous of you, you have seen a lot of my favourite bands live. I would give anything to see Amon Amarth or Dark Tranquiliy live, but I have to settle for live DVD's :(
 
i'm all for metal except those start of with good deep riff and goes into some squeaky voice like punk rock/metal. also like symphony metal, nightwish pretty good in that division, but my soft spot is things like iron maiden, manowar or judas priest.

I'm sooooo jeaalloouuusssssssss right now :o
 
I have been a fan since I was born, no seriously. Although I listen to almost anything now days, I have a soft spot for black metal. Dimmu borgir, old mans child, COF etc.
 
parkway drive has been in my car cd player for the past 2 weeks...

...and ofcourse facing the gallows every now and again, when traffic p!sses me off
 
I love my old school metal....Metallica,Iron Maiden etc. also like SOAD, ramstein, Scars on broadway....sepultura
 
Yep i loves me some metal, as long as it does not sound like a bunch of pigs squeling all the time..... i like to hear the words to songs
 
I just saw his comment about Metallica

/beats Wlad with a soggy dog

Not cool indeed.

Metallica is far from pop rock dude. Come on. I grew up listening to them along with maiden and the likes.
 
Dude

Metallica not cool :mad:

Fixed it for you. :p

I used to respect metallica when they cared about the music and not money. I am a guitarist myself and for me it's all about the music, i don't care if i don't make a single cent with my music. I have a passion for music and i only care that people enjoy it, money is for sell-outs. Thats just my opinion
 
so the next question here is.... who can actually play guitar in real life acoustic or and electric

That would be me :p
I have been playing guitar for 4 years now, and i consider myself a pretty decent songwriter and guitarist. I even have my own one-man-project on myspace, but for now it's just guitars and a drum machine, i suck at vocals
