I used to like alot of rap/hip hop but most stuff you hear nowadays is so much crap I fell out of it. And I don't have the will to look up all these supposedly badass 'underground' artistes. I've found I prefer the music to th lyrics in general anyways.

So I listen to alot of metal now. So surprised I have not seen the greatest metal band of all time mentioned: IRON MAIDEN. Seriously, bow down.
So I listen to heavy metal like Maiden, Mastodon, Manowar. Also my fave subgenre is power metal, bands like Blind Guardian, Iced Earth, Kamelot (amazing) and Sonata Arctica.
I never liked death grunts so I was never much into death metal. The one Opeth I listened to left my ears hurting. But then came Metalocalypse and I thought Dethklok was awesome so I decided to look for some melodic death. And so Opeth isn't too bad anyway and I love Amon Amarth now. So much so I made "Cry of the Blackbirds" my ringtone on account of the awesome opening.

Can't stand screeching though so black metal is more or less out.

Hmm well I been in study mode these last couple of days so I been listening real soul calibur stuff and chrono cross stuff and the live versions from the GGXX Ost has a special place in my winamp queue( Why doesn't every fighting game have a complete rock soundtrack like Guilty Gear

).

I got a lot of game osts.

Oh yeah my fave tracks from the t5 dr ost is the opening resurrection track and the Hall of fate~resurrection track.

You should check out Kamelot's last album, The Black Halo. Baddest power metal album I've ever heard.

Look out for Dethklok's first full length album entitled Dethalbum this Summer

Whoa bro, it's metal we're talking. Not rock.
Don't forget that. There's a difference.

Nephilim · « **Reply #210 on:** January 31, 2007, 05:27:26 PM »

well yes and no, metal had broken off from rock with bands like YES,WHO,Deep Purple and Iron Butterfly (or at least i thinks is iron butterfly :S) in the late '60s, it is only then there was no real genre for it, so it remained in rock, metal is more or less classified by emphasis on the guitars and the heavy vocals or heavy lyrics, thats how bands like zep came into it, their music per say isn't heavy but the lyrics are in your face, Maiden refined power and/or speed metal to an extent.

Really and truly, i hate soca.
I grew up in a more classical approach to carnival, i was the only one in my age group who liked to watch the calypso monarch and the traditional/ole mas, modern carnival culture, or rather pop culture, disgust me.

i usually try to not remember that performance...

Nephilim · « **Reply #212 on:** February 01, 2007, 06:53:52 AM »

LOL

yeah, my taste in music has changed drastically since then, now is mostly European and J-rock bands, i like the combination of traditional theater and metal they use (Nightwish, Epica, Haggard), and the sound of the language and the music respectively (Nitemare, Gackt).

Nice. Love Metalocalypse. It was what truly started softening my heart to harsher vocals.
If you like Dethklok, try Amon Amarth. Great band. And a good way to start breaking into death metal.

I don't know...I would gear YES's influencemore towards the progressive genres...and I'd credit most of the influence to metal to just The Who and Black Sabbath. As for Zep...they don't have that typical heavy distortion in their sound...in fact I'm trying to think of a zep track in my head that uses much if any distortion at all. Led Zep's influence and sound is more hard rock, I'd think. Robert Plant probably influences certain metal groups lyrically with his epic fantasy oriented songs and then Led Zepplin's whole aura of mysticism. And well....there's no debating Deep Purple.

Both bands...Sabbath and Zep draw a lot of the guitar ethic from blues, though.

Yeah...and...stuff... whatever...genres suck.

I AGREE!!!!

Just listen to it if yuh think is sounds good

i mean can you imagine how odd it looks when you have a song like dimmu borgir - perfection or vanity, followed by NAS - one mic, then by Prince - When doves cry?

hmmmm @ YES's influence, and yuh have a point on the progressive rock influence though

I'm not really a Soca fanatic but Machel came hot this year with the song "JUMBIE"... also Shurwayne's "Open D Gate"... anyone second that?

greyfox · « **Reply #218 on:** February 04, 2007, 05:48:07 PM »

i don't really have one steady taste, i listen to everything, i mean everything, well maybe not country and indian music. lol. but anything big in trinidad music wise? last time i checked was about september time.

daniboy79 · « **Reply #219 on:** February 04, 2007, 06:26:03 PM »

as a musician... i tend to listen to more instrumental music, especially Scores(motion Picture Scores) i have alot of music from Movie Scores actually, lol
when i listen to music i don't tend to hear the lyrics easily... i concentrate on the composition more.
i'm NOT a fan of the Carnival type music whatsoever! sorry guys
