I will throw in my two cents and say, you're a complete fucking moron.

Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Megadeth, any of those bands ring any bells? Good game, moron. lmfao, no good metal, you're quite the comical fuck, aren't you?

Another brainwashed MTV follower, I see.
Listen, man... this person likes Garbage. GARBAGE FOR CHIRSTS SAKE. One of the WORST BANDS IN EXISTANCE. Hell, I didn't even like back when I liked shity music. Shut You Mouth is probably the most non melodic, stupid, pointless, talentless song EVER. I listened to their most recent release, and guess what? FOUR YEARS AND THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED A SINGLE DAMN BIT.

Let me just name off a few outside of the older, more classical stuff.

Blind Guardian
Dream Theater
Iced Earth
Demons and Wizards
Dragonforce
Symphony X
Savage Circus

Crap, hit the submit button before completing my thought.

Yes, some of the bands I listed haven't changed (most pointedly, Iced Earth and DragonForce), but they were pretty good to start with. Garbage, however, sucked to start with, and not getting any better just makes them suck more.

He wouldn't have heard of any of those bands though, I was trying to name some of the more popular metal bands (outside of metal circles)

The main thing is, though, you don't really start finding trully outstanding (well, more like different) until you get into the "most people haven't heard of us" territory.

Plus, there are several things about his logic that bother me, the biggest of which is thinking he can say that something sucks without defending his position at all. I can't stand it when people do that. Sure, I'll say something sucks, but then I back it up with my thoughts, rather than leaving it where it is.

Maybe he'll try to find one of the bands I mentioned. If he won't... I'll find a way to HELP him find them <.< There's simply no excuse to liking Garbage over Dream Theater and Blind Guardian, or even melodic death metal (which I don't even like that much) for that matter.

I would just like to congratulate you on winning 'The close minded shit head comment of the day' prize

That's not calling you a shithead, it's calling your ignorant comment shit headed.

If you have enough self-respect and dignity to oen your mind long enough I would recommend the following bands (I fully suspect you won't even bother, but hey, stranger things have happened.)

Green Carnation
Devin Townsend
Arcturus
Anathema
Nevermore
Therion
Clutch
Pain

Evidently you know nothing of metal and are flaming because you think you do, giev them a shot...or don't and be arrogant, either way I tried.

A favorite band of all time...? Hmm, I don't think I can pick A favorite, but I have a few favorites...

Evanescense, My Chemical Romance, and Slipknot to name a few...

Amy Lee is the only good part of Evanesence, the rest of the band plays the same four notes the entire song.

My Chemical Romance has the exact same problem, minus the decent singer, plus the shity screamo one.

Slipknot, well... Joey's a hack, and people who spooge over the factt that he can pound on a double bass drum are really annoying. If you want a REAL drummer, listen to some Dream Theater. Mike Portnoy = god. As far as the rest of the band, about all they can do is pound on their instruments repetitively and scream.

Though, on a more positive note, I do agree that it's hard to name JUST ONE band that you consider your favorite. If you look back a couple of pages, you'll see that I've narrowed mine down to three. Blind Guardian, Dream Theater, Pink Floyd.

Amy Lee is horrible; that whole band is horrible, actually. Tarja (ex-Nightwish) was 30x the singer Amy was, even if Tarja is a diva bitch.

MCR can die. Thanks.

Joey is a decent drummer. He never shows it in Slipknot though. His shit on Roadrunner United is good. Portnoy isn't God on drums at all, he's become stale and repetative. Gene Hoglan, Richard Christy, Danny Carey, George Kollias, Derek Roddy, they're all better than Portnoy has been in the last 5-7 years.

You guys seem to be taking my dislike of metal too personaly.

As for opening my mind to investigate these so called bands, I'd like to say that it has nothing to do with my mind being open but more to with the fact that I am just too indifferent towards something that shouldn't be considered music to begin with. In short metal is not worth the time it would take to even read the bands name wich I would listen to. By the way not only did I not read the names of the bands but I won't be listening to any of the verbal vomit they've tossed into the toilet of life.

There you have it.

Plus, there are several things about his logic that bother me, the biggest of which is thinking he can say that something sucks without defending his position at all.

Whoever said this, I just want you to know, you made me laugh for hours.
But why should I explain my opinion? Really? Would it have convinced you of anything you don't think you may already know? Probably not.

However if I could pick two other bands as favorites I'd have to go with;
The White Stripes and The Smashing Pumpkins

If I could pick five I think then I say in addition to the rest;
Lynyrd Skynyrd, Modest Mouse and Tool or Symphony X.

Go listen to Nightwish's Ghost Love Score and tell me there is nothing 'musical' about metal, and that it is 'vomit'. Metal is easily the most diverse genre in the world, and encompasses so much that this blanket concept that it is not even 'musical' is downright bizzare.

BTW. Symphony X is metal. You just fucking owned yourself.
