prog metal

Music Genre that involves an unlimited ammount of rythms and melodies in the same song, very long duration of them, different time patterns in a same chorus for example... Thousands of notes per minute and infinite influence of jazz, blues and rock. The term "prog" is usually asociated to long songs with tempo changes and glorious notes. Some bands like Dream Theater and Opeth still make the world listen to this kind of metal, more acceptable for neutral audience.

The progressive metal bands are usually conformed by very high-leveled musicians, oftenly born in a music family environment and influenced by prog rock bands like Yes, Queen, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Emerson lake and Palmer, and others...

Prog Metal Bands: Liquid Tension Experiment - Opeth - Dream Theater - Communic - Frost.

Metal Elitist

A person who believes their metal music is superior to other people's music. These people only listen to metal music and categorize metal through sub-genres. Some metal elitists are so wound up, that they tend to only listen to one type of metal sub-genre. Metal Elitists are usually found listening to underground metal bands and cut down other people's musical taste if it is not up to par with their own.

"Dude that guy was an asshole. He completely cut down my music and told me that I was wrong for listening to the music that I do, saying it wasn't "real" metal and then he went on to call me a hot topic mallcore." - Person A

"Yeah dude, that's a Metal Elitist for ya" - Person B

Power Metal

One word:Power metal(okay, technically two). This is used to describe the speedy, melodic sub-genre of metal originally known as "true" metal to the cool people that made it. Sadly, power metal is very very somewhat very misunderstood by a majority of metalheads, but just know it's actually pretty cool. Btw I personally think Dragon Force and Hammerfall are where it's at (may be biased because they got me into power metal). Basically, it may not the metal you're used to, but that doesn't make it bad at all; it might just be better. Plus, power metal musicians should be given more credit considering that one song can literally be all solos.

Overall power metal breaks through the usual and barely lives up to its stereotype of being cheesy and lame. After all, I should know, I am and have always been a huge Metallica/thrash metal/heavy metal fan. πŸ˜†Hechyea to all metal.

I want to listen to power metal today, and some other random sub-genre of metal some other time.
Power metal can be cool, just chill

death metal

Usually associated with satan and hell etc. but is often philosophical and nihilitist, rather that just purely satanic. Highly technical and complicated form of music, which sounds harsh and raw because of harsh growly vocals and heavy use of distortion and bass on songs. All death metal songs and bands do not sound the same, each one has different riffs and every band has their own vocal style, because nobody growls/rasps the same as anybody else. Covers a wide age range (just go to a gig) and is not racist. (thats a minority of heaveily satanic black metal, e.g. Burzum, who believed in dominancy of the aryan populace of norway) Sepultura have a black singer currently so that screws that argument. Anyone who thinks that death metal is all the same, then they don't have to listen to it, and don't have to slag of fans of the genre for ENJOYING the music. We don't simply do it to look hard.

Possessed, Death, Morbid Angel, At the Gates, Nile, Cannibal Corpse to name but a few, all from different areas of the death metal spectrum.
