Hate to break it to you partner, but those bands you listed aren't metal at all.

strictly christian death metal and gospel/funk fusion

No, but what I'm trying to tell you is that they aren't metal. It's OK if you like them, but they aren't metal.

Steve Reich (minimalism), 20th Century composers, jazz/fusion (Mahavishnu Orchestra a fav, Allan Holdsworth, Stern), then the rock/alt/electronic/metal stuff (Soundgarden, Audioslave, Pantera, Sunny Day Real Estate/the Fire Theft, NIN, RATM, Strokes, Tool, Amon Tobim, Cinematic Orchestra, At the Gates, Bjork, Foo F, QOTSA, Mudvayne, My Vitriol, Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers, Radiohead, Shurman, Sophistes, Wilco, etc. etc. ), drumming stuff (Virgil Donati, Dennis Chambers, Steve Godd)...
EVERYTHING except Country (not including Johnny Cash, of course).

i listen to all music. all types.

por ejemplo; Incubus, Rage (inc Audioslave), Coldplay, System, The Streets, N*E*R*D, Deftones, Justin Timberlake (don't ridicule me cuz i like something you don't), Blur, The Verve, hundredreasons, SikTh, Basement Jaxx etc.

loads. oh yeh also loads of random (GOOD! ie not about "bitches" + money) rap. loads more.

hey ruby, did ya' see the new mtv show called punk'd where ashton crutcher got a bunch of guys to pretend they were reposessing all of justin timberlake's posessions for 900k worth of back taxes? that was one of mtv's finest moments.
did ya' see the look on his face when they told him this escalade was only worth 12k? i wish i had that on tape. heh

what would you call it adversary, nu metal? soft rock? what to you is metal

incubus incubus incubus
311, some trance, some hip hop (talib kweli, mos def, blackalicious etc)

yaaaaaaay Zenmaster - Incubus! my fave band.

Well, I prefer the term angst rock, but yes, it's "nu metal". It's not metal. For several reasons. Look at it this way. If I listened to BAND X, and I claimed they were jazz to a bunch of people who are all totally into jazz, and they tell me that they, nor any other jazzheads, consider BAND X jazz in the slightest, at that point I don't think I'd be fit to argue. If you walked into a room full of metalheads and told them that Mudvayne, Slipknot, etc, were metal bands, they would all dismiss you (probably rather callously too) because they aren't metal bands. They scream and moan, they play simple, repetitive riffs, the drumming is very beat oriented as opposed to the very fill oriented style of metal, they have 9 members, 5 of which they could do without. They wear masks, they have dumb album covers, they have angsty song titles and lyrics. I could go on and on, but quite simply, these bands aren't metal. Perhaps in some commercial "I've never been exposed to real metal" way these bands are metal, but just because MTV classifies them as such doesn't make MTV right.

i dont watch mtv, im canadian.
and frankly (not wanting to start an argument) but the music that mudvayne makes.. its melodic while staying heavy. they were the best live show i've ever seen.

but yea, i can see slipknot dropping 3,, not 5,

adversary, you also havent mentioned what bands you are into

nine inch nails, korn, no doubt, mary j. blige, dmx, tupac shakur, the pixies, nirvana, nine inch nails, static-x, metallica, rancid, tori amos, nine inch nails, blues traveler, beethoven, mozart, debussy, stravinsky, nine inch nails, marilyn manson, tracy bonham, ani difranco, fiona apple, lauryn hill, nine inch nails, prick, telafon tel aviv, sister machine gun, front 242, stephen lynch, rodney carrington, chopin, garth brooks, alabama, dixie chicks, nine inch nails, several gospel choirs, ladysmith black mambazo, afro-celt sound system, the crystal method, VAST, led zeppelin, joni mitchell, hole, a bunch i know i'm forgetting and oh..um...nine inch nails.

you don't care much for trent do ya'?

i'm gonna fuck trent silly and have fifteen of his babies, but other than that, not really.

oh, ok, just as long as it isn't obsession.

nope. i haven't started camping in front of his house yet.

you got a massive variety there, impressive

yeah still don't know if that means i have "eclectic taste" or "no taste".

Modest Mouse, The Pixies, Frank Black, Monks Of Doom, Camper Van Beethoven, At The Drive-In, Cephalic Carnage, Cryptopsy, Death, Angelcorpse, Dillinger Escape Plan, Happy Apple, etc etc etc

When my wife and I were in New Orleans the first time we decided to go see where Ann Rice and Trent Reznor live. The addresses were in Idiots Guide to New Orleans, strangely enough. For all I know, though, we could've been in the completely wrong neighborhood (nice houses, tho).

was the trent house a strange shade of light purple?

Probably because of your lame, played out, holier-than-thou attitude. Everyone knows elitist jackasses are too cool to win any kind of game.

If it was purple, it must've been subtle, 'cause I don't remember. It was twilight and there are a lot of trees, so... I'd check my pictures, but that was the trip when I left my camera in the motel.

I (as usual) am paralleling insomnomaniac in that I''ve got very widespread taste, though my choices differ from hers significantly. Lets just say I'm eclectic.
Moby
Linkin Park
**Nine Inch Nails**
Korn
The Strokes
The Vines
Foo Fighters

...and many more.

aheffel wonders to himself if Adversary ever has anything intelligent to add besides stoopid shit directed at other posters.

damn, some of yous likes some awful shit! yes, i think my musical taste is superior.

Radiohead, At the Drive-in, Beck, The White Stripes, Nirvana, Weezer, Cursive, Ben Kweller, Thursday, The Strokes, The Flaming Lips, Buddy Holly, Mid-late fifties/early 60's motown (temptations are my favorite), Sparta, Starlight Mints, Sigur Ros, Dahsboard Confessional, some bjork is cool, this goes as well for eminem.

NIN!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

ok. i'm done now.

Well, I can tell this is going to set me apart from most of the people here, but I listen to a lot of country. I lived on a farm for all but 5 of my 20 years though, and I hail from a place who's claim to fame is being the "Moonshine Capital of the World" (we've even got t-shirts, that makes it law), so it shouldn't be a big surprise. Mostly, however, I listen to mellow tunes like Dave Matthews Band, Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, Pat McGee Band, Radiohead, and lots of other random artists like Sublime, Beck, Pink Floyd. I've taken a liking to the piano lately, though, Ben Folds is great, a little REM sometimes.

i will be the first to stand up and say that there is nothing wrong with country. personally i love "much to young to be this damn old" by garth, and you can't knock johnny cash. i don't care who you are.

even if there were something wrong with country, you like what you like, you know?

I would never claim that anything was wrong with country. Hell, I've seen Dave Matthews Band, Ben Harper, Bob Dylan, Bela Fleck, Live, several other artists, and I really think Phil Vassar put on one of the better performances I've ever seen.

i hope you didnt get rid of your cds based on the idea that you dont need material posessions. i agree you dont, and if youre happier without, all the power to you... but live your life your way, not from quotes read off a page

[B]True, true. I sold my music and DVDs because I was tired of living other people's dreams. I have invested my time into playing music rather than just listening to it. I just feel I should make something of myself, rather than admire someone else doing what I want to do. [/B][/QUOTE]

As a musician I find this statement absolutely apalling and ignorant.

i dont find it apppaling or ignorant, so many bands sound alike today, if this guy can play without the outside influences, maybe he can make a unique sound

monkey12, im stickin up for you, so dont make me look bad, get famous with something funky pronto

as a person i find this statement pompous and arrogant.

Well, say what you will, but chances are your music will sound MORE generic if you don't have outside influence. I think it's a horrible idea.
