The Metal Thread

[Andy]

Here's a thread for all the metalheads out there to discuss their favourite genre!

I myself always listen to thrash metal, sometimes heavy metal and speed metal.
Bands, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Kreator. Only thrash bands. Sometimes I also listen to Joe Satriani, the man who taught Metallica's lead guitarrist Kirk Hammet to play the Guitarr.

I like Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, Shadows Fall and Pantera.

I especially like the "founding fathers" of metal like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Guns 'N' Roses, Motorhead etc.

Been a metal fan for a long time now, I have no idea which is my favourite band though . I like Thrash/Speed, Black, Heavy, Doom, Folk, Viking and Death metal.

@Yeno - Guns N' Roses was not a part of the "founding fathers".

Yeno, you've got to start listening to Kreator. If you like Slayer, you will absolutely love them.

Zigurat, Thrash and Speed are the greatest! Black and heavy are awesome, and Death is completely OK. But how can you actually listen to Viking, Doom and Folk? =P
Aw well, as long as you don't start listening to Gethic, I'm glad. Haha! ^_^

Doom is awsome you got bands like Candlemass, Reverend Bizarre, Saint Vitus and so on. Viking got some really sweet bands aswell like later Bathory, Einherjer, Týr and viking/folk/black bands like Moonsorrow, early Ulver, Månegarm, Vintersorg. Alot to be found in these genres. My favourite genre by far is Thrash/Speed though.

Gothic sucks, I hate it!

Everyone is allowed to have an opinion, so I respect yours. Haha!
The most Death I can listen to is Arch Enemy.

What thrash-band are you listening to?
