Are you talking to me Napolian?

I've already said I respect it, I just don't like it. It sounds like your the one that needs to open up to different kinds of music...

Umm, no I definately don't. And I was talking to all the people talking to all the people thinking screamo and death metal were the same thing. Don't dislike something if you don't know what its. Thats what I'm saying

It's not my sort of music but I understand that people like it.
So i won't write " death metal SUCKS!" just it's not my favourite..
But i like SoaD.. but I think that's not even near death metal =P.

Love death metal, and every type of metal. A few songs I don't like, mostly because they're choppy and don't flow well, but metal is one of my favorite types of music, tied with soft rock/slow songs, as weird as that sounds. Kinda opposite, but I really like them both.

Can someone explain what death metal is,and give some bands to check out.


It typically employs fast tempos, heavily distorted guitars, deep growling vocals, blast beat drumming, and complex song structures with multiple tempo changes.

Slayer's reign in blood and thrash metal influenced a lot of death metal.

Death
Celtic frost/hellhammer
Venom
Bathory
Morbid Angel

Well all music artists do put in effort ( Disney pop stars aren't music artists in my opinion, so I'll leave them out).
I like most metal, but not death metal, yeah I'm a softie...The lyrics are great, just that I don't how do I put it....loudness? Or sound to it.

Oh wait.

The vocal style used in death metal is known as "death growls".


That's the part I don't like.

death metal isnt that great i prefer goth metal, thrash metal and other forms that arent so hard (they sound more like hard rock than metal)

I like some Opeth songs, but that;s it. Mikael Akerfeldt has a really melancholy voice, and it fits with the lyrics quite well.

i have yet to find a metal song that wasn't 50% guitar solo/drum solo/ screaming.

Every metal song I've ever heard was not 50% any kind of solo.

And I've heard plenty of metal songs that have clean vocals.

Regular metal rock is good. With any kind of death metal I stumble upon, I get screamo madness
every 5-10 seconds. Good thing they only last 3 minutes. Good ol' 7 minute long, clean, touching,
energizing DragonForce.

LOL that's the point of Death Metal DUH.

Why are you complaining just because you don't listen to it doesn't mean that you have to bash on it. I probably don't like your music either!
