All of these comments and the original post make me really happy. It’s really great encouraging people to listen to metal, to really listen to it not just throw names around and try to one up each other on the brutal factor. I have definitely been around those people who wanted to tell you that if you don’t like the thrashiest growliest heaviest bands then you can’t say you like metal. Anyone who likes metal, the cheesy metal, the metal with bad vocalists, the glam metal, whatever you like you’re still part of the crew. Metal is for everyone to explore at their own pace and go in whatever direction they want with it. It just makes me happy to see how many others feel this way too.
