ARE YOU A METAL FAN? YES OR NO?

I know there are quite a few metalheads on this site but also a few who aren't. I wanna see how many exactly there are. And also if you are, share the name of your favourite band!

Me:

Metal fan? Yes
Favourite band? Avenged Sevenfold (ok they're not the first band that pop into your mind when you think about metal but that's partially due to their diverse range of styles lol so yeah... they still count though. Plus I listen to bands like Iron Maiden a lot)

Nope

I hate metal.But that is just my preference

LOOOL 33 33 33 who will win xD

No specific genre. I have strong dislike of various forms of Rock. Im not sure what its sub-title is but its were ya have the lead singer screaming down the mic what can be only described as a beast of some kind. LOL.

once you add screaming it becomes Metalcore, Deathcore, Grindcore, Death Metal, Black Metal, Hardcore.......and I listen to a lot of Metalcore/Deathcore like Caliban, Bring Me The Horizon, The Devil Wears Prada, All That Remains, Stick to Your Guns, Unearth, Veil of Maya, Heaven Shall Burn, The Ghost Inside, Carnifax all the way to Static-X, Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, Korn and System of a Down.

Many people call themselves Metal Fans/Metal Heads, yet they only listen to certain metal genres......TRUE Metal Heads such as myself listen to ALL AND ANY style of metal and I also listen to German (Rammstein), Russian (Amatory) and Japenese (Dir En Grey) Metal (lyrically).

Slightly. I listen to alot of genres of music.

I'm quite aware my music taste is probably the heaviest on this entire forum, but when I was the same age as demondragondude my music taste wasn't even as heavy as his. So give it 5 years time demondragondude and you'll be loving Immortal and things of the sort I bet you!

Anyway here's a song by Sabaton, I defy you not to love it if you voted 'Yes' or 'Slightly' on this forum!

I'm really getting into bands like Children Of Bodom a lot now. They're sooo amazing. I'm kinda disappointed with the Bloodrunk album (with the exception of Banned From Heaven) but their other albums = BADASS!!!
Btw WOW those Sabaton guys are awesome. Never heard em before xD

COB are an awesome band, and your right it's a shame Blooddrunk isn't as good as there previous offerings.

Yeah Mate! Sabaton are proper wicked, most of there songs are about World War I & II along with other conflicts.

They have done 5 albums and are releasing another one called 'Coat of Arms' in the next couple of months.

Watch out for the albums Primo Victoria, Attero Dominatus and The Art of War.

Metal can kiss my ass.

This forum does have quite alot of metal fans, which is unusual because metal is similar to the PS3 in some aspects, it's the bitch of the industry.

But to all those who love it, popularity means nothing.

Sabaton FTW!!! In Flames

Both are great and I know the guitarist in Sabaton He is my cousins half-brother

Both bands are from Sweden.

Amazing! I love both of those bands along with Arch Enemy. Sweden produces the finest Metal, with Norway coming in a close second IMO.

Finland isnt that bad either But i agree the Nordic metal is among the finest.
