10 Best Metal Albums for People Who Hate Metal
I'm not a massive metal fan but this album is really great.
I love this album and I'll love it forever
Great pick for the uninitiated. While it is heavy enough for fans of both Maiden and metal, and definitely not the most mainstream album on this list, the pop sensibilities help to make it very accessible for non-fans. Mostly short songs, catchy choruses, memorable hooks, sing-a-long aspect and enough grandiose to leave an impact demonstrate these pop touches which makes it recommendable to those who either hate metal or those who want to engage with it but don't know where to start. However, it is also heavy enough to appeal to Maiden fans too. It's the perfect in-between.
The album not the song
Why would they listen to it of they hate metal?
I'm not a metal fan but Ozzy Osbourne is probably better than most heavy metal.
Its symphonic metal. And symphonic metal is one of the softest metal genres. So I think it'd be good for metal haters. Because usually people hate metal for its heaviness.
Contains The Song Wheel of Time which is impossible to hate
Poppy enough for pop fans to like
A very mainstream sound makes this the ideal record for those who hate metal, as it is heavy enough to be applicable under the genre label but not to the point to alienate those listeners.
Not going to work. The only song I can recommend is, Fade In Black. It starts with a soft part. Most of the songs are quite heavy.
A perfect album
