wtf is cock rock?

If GNR comes into that genre, how the hell are they gay, i mean they have a song which has a little anti gay in it, so how could they be gay???

Nu-metal isnt as new as you think either, i mean there was claw finger in the early 90s, rage against the machine. I suppose if you go into the 80s, the  beastie boys album "license to ill"  was that.

I'm fascinated to hear what the hell Melodic Death Metal and Ambient Black Metal are!

Does it go beyond some idiot screaming nonsensical giberish and a drum kit going flat out? Melodic death metal - lol, does that actually have 'music' sections in between the ''roar roar roaaaaaaaaaaar!!!!!!!!!'' rofl

Ever heard of In Flames, At The Gates, Skyfire, and of course Opeth? Those bands are melodic death, but they are often called Gothenburg metal, after the scene where the sound emerged. They're actually very mainstream by metal standards, so I'm surprised you haven't heard any!

Ambient black metal could describe bands like Agalloch, Ancient, Ildjarn, Burzum, Darkthrone, Immortal, and Gehenna. However, most black metal has a lot of atmosphere and ambience these days. Ambient is a term used to compare more modern black metal like the bands I mentioned with early black metal like Sodom, Hellhammer, and Bathory.

Grow up and listen to more good music.

What bands/songs/albums have you heard, Genesis? Cradle of Filth? Dimmu Borgir? Maybe Cannibal Corpse. Yeah, real fair to judge a genre over the most mainstream bands.  Roll Eyes

Listen to songs like One Rode To Asa Bay by Bathory, Dunkelheit by Burzum, and Voice Of The Soul by Death. These are some of the most moving songs in the black and death genres. Be sure to get ORTAB's lyrics; they're very sad. If you don't like these genre transcending songs, then you probably don't like beautiful music of any type. Not all black metal sounds like Celtic Frost or Sepultura.

If anything, black metal's guitars are among the least obnoxious and easiest to get used to of all metal genres outside of classic heavy metal. Think about it. Death metal guitars are very downtuned. Thrash is too fast and agressive for most people. Power metal sounds too happy, and progressive metal has too much wankery. The typical black metal guitar sound is great for making a cold atmosphere that suits that type of music. You have to be in the right mood for it.

Don't be lazy. Get your favorite p2p program and download the songs. It will only take 20 minutes of your time to hear some good music with no screaming vocals. It's worth it to appreciate a new type of music in the long run; it might even change your perspective and appreciation of other bands in different genres!

Moving along from the wonders of ambient black metal (a genre of such quality no such band has actually sold any albums yet...)

------------------------------------------------------------------

Is there actually any new direction for music, especially rock, to take?

Rock has been fused with rap, with dance, with orchestral sections, its even been done without guitars

If u set up a band with the deliberate intention of doing something new in the rock genre - what the hell would it be? Hasn't everything been tried?

All that can be done is to make good music, and maybe create new techniques with a instrument???

Why would a band want to create fascinating new music? It won't sell any albums! Just make "good music", which means emulating what has already been done 20 years ago that is proven to sell. Making original music just gets in the way of making big profits, which is what rock music is all about!

The only reason Grunge was popular was because record companies were sure it would sell. They're still making money on the fucker. If it had not been Grunge it would have been something else.

The music scene is defunct by Rap shit and scremo, so I'll have to move on. But I seriously think if Mtv shut their buisness down, a BIG difference would be made. Ever since MTV  came out in 1981, there have been more one-hit wonders multiplying than ever.

I must admit that is annoying.  But I find it worse when they know nothing about those bands. at all.  I know 99% of my friends dont even know who Black Sabbath is?!  So I would be happy for one to "pretend" sometimes!

Reality is overrated anyway. 80's hair bands like GnR celebrated a hedonism that 99.9% have never experienced or ever will. We still love those bands!

Dunkelheit

German:

Wenn die Nacht einf?llt
Bedeckt sie die Welt
Mit undurchdringlicher Dunkelheit
K?lte steigt vom Boden auf
Und verpestet die Luft
Pl?tzlich...
Hat das Leben neue Bedeutung

English Translation:

When night falls
She cloaks the world
In impenetrable darkness
A chill rises from the soil
And contaminates the air
Suddenly...
Life has new meaning

One Rode To Asa Bay
One man rode the way through the woods
Down to Asa bay
Where dragon ships had sailed to sea
More times than one could say
To see with own eyes the wonder
People told of from man to man
The God of all almightyness
Had arrived from a foreign land

The rumours told of a man
Who had come from the other side the seas
Carrying gold cross around neck in chain
And spoke in strange tongue of peace
He had come with strange men in armour
Dressed in purple shirts and lace
Smelling not of beer but flowers
And with no hair in face

And the bold man carrying cross
Had told all one of Asa bay
The God of all man woman child had come
To them all save
And to thank Lord of Heaven
One should build to God a house
And to save one's soul from Hell
One should be baptised and say vows

A man of pride with the Hammer told new God
To build his house on own
And spoke loud of the Gods of their fathers
Not too long time gone
The rumours said the man with a beard like fire
And the Hammer in chain
By men in armour silenced was and by
Their swords was slain

Those who did not pay the one coin
Of four to man of new God
Whipped was twenty and put in chains then locked
By their neck to the log [To the log...]
And so all of Asa bay did build
A house of the cross
Every hour of daylight they did sweat
Limbs ached because faith does cost

And on the day two hundred
There it stood white to the sky
The house of the God of the cross
Big enough to take two dragon ships inside
And all of Asa bay did watch
The wonder raise to the sky
Now must the God of the cross be pleased
And satisfied

Just outside the circle of the crowd
One old man did stand
He looked across the waters
And blotted the sun out of his eyes with one hand
And his old eyes could almost see
The dragon ships set sail
And his old ears could almost hear
Men of great numbers call out Oden's hail

And though he did know already
Though he turned face towards sky
And whispered silent words forgotten
Spoken only way up high
Now this house of a foreign God does stand
Now must they leave us alone
Still he heard from somewhere in the woods
Old crow of wisdom say
...people of Asa land, it's only just begun...
