Metal. Is it music?

Ah, sorry for rambling in this thread, didn't mean to.

Alpha positive right?

... what do you mean, haha? But probably, yeah.

I thought you were talking about male social dominance hierarchy, not socionics. Lol

Oh, those go hand in hand. I have no idea what I was talking about.

I see. Carry on.

It is totally feminist.

 

[Dyslexxie]

And could it still logically be considered music if you're one of those who doesn't consider rap music? Why or why not?


PS: Sorry, I didn't feel like hunting for Cyrillic characters.

Excuse me? If rap OR metal aren't music I don't care to know what music is. Also people who say "X isn't music" can suck a d.

I agree, but only a tiny lower case d?

I know of one song which is both symphonic metal and rap. I like things which don't fit neatly into categories.

Or a big d, whichever they want.
That sounds awesome! I like so much music in so many categories that I can't deal with the elitist thing that 'omg rap is just words!1!!' or 'metal is all screaming omg~%8'.

But X isn't a music though. It's a letter.

Well I know what I can do now... ahaha. Learning possibilities everyday.

Today has been very odd. My inner life has been quite foreign today. (like exploring new places inside myself)

Anything is music if you want it to be.

I agree, I like songs from many different genres. People can be silly when they overgeneralize like that.

The rap/symphonic metal song is pretty different in many ways. I didn't like it at first even though it's by my favorite band (symphonic metal), so I can understand why others might not.

Another category-buster: would anyone expect atmospheric doom metal to sound beautiful?

Nice! I've never heard the Within Temptation one before!
Ugh are you kidding, atmospheric doom is so beautiful! Agalloch are among one of my top bands of all time.

I also quite enjoy symphonic black metal (probably my favorite metal genre of all time):

Okay, I'm turning this into a 'why is metal so awesome' thread.

 

[Masokissed]

metal kicks ass and has like 200 subgenres
how can you argue against that

I know. Metal even has Jesus if you want that nonsense.

 

[JAVO]

[MENTION=26046]Dyslexxie[/MENTION] I haven't heard any of those before, so thanks for the little music exploration jaunt! I really like the Agalloch one. I think I could get into the others if I weren't in such a mellow mood right now.

No problem!
Hah yeah, I go through those phases where I'm too mellow to metal (earlier I was listening to sappy country so whatever) but it's still one of my favorite genres.

I can totally hear that it's music. That said when I hear metal this is what happens:

Why is this even a question? Metal is as musical as it gets.. I love it. And classical music and metal are very similar, including their fans: Take note: Why fans of heavy metal and classical music have a lot in common | Daily Mail Online
