Top 10 Easy Ways to Figure Out What Metal Subgenre You Are Listening To
I made this list for fun but if you think the list also represents correctly some trends, that would be great.For the most part this is true, but Dio is just regular heavy metal, yet they sing about dragons
I made a list "Top 10 Metal Albums with Dragons on the Cover". Most of them are power metal albums.
There are dragons in the lyrics, band name, album cover.
Death metal also has angry vocals
Any genres can be fast
This is a very close minded thing to say. To you nu metal is not good but there are some people that love it.
Regarding most of the other items of the list, I agree with them.
Slipknot and Disturbed has some good songs
Also I'd argue that some thrash metal sounds terrible
Dio, Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford...
Okay, this is a little sexist. There's a one-woman black metal band, the vocalist of Cerebral Bore, which is death metal, is female, there's female members of deathcore bands like Make Them Suffer or Winds of Plague, etc.
Umm...Alissa White Gluz is a death metal vocalist; also what about the male vocalists of Kamelot and Rhapsody?
Yes, my first prog metal song was Artcell's Oniket Prantor. I used to listen the song whole day. I even memorized the lyrics. But I couldn't understand the lyrics of the song. Though I was very young, but still it was more complicated than most other songs.
At one point I though why these solos are never ending solos.
+ Neo-classical solos.
Yes, I definitely agree with this. Thanks to whoever added it.
I didn't add this. I'm not sure it's true. Traces of blues are found only in some proto-metal songs of the 70s. Or bands mistakenly called metal. Or non-metal songs by metal bands.
Bands that currently play traditional heavy metal (heavy metal) don't have any blues. If there's blues, it's hard rock.
