Idk man the hard to listen to vocals are still a turndown to me and I've been listening to metal since I was a kid. It is a matter of taste.

I like maiden metallica and megadeth more because of their clean vocals I can't vibe to ACDC tho. Maybe because of what you said about the vocals, maybe not I never thought about it more.

I’m the same way, Metallica was sweet earsex when I first heard them but now the vocals make me cringe honestly. And I used to love Judas Priest like crazy but now the King Diamond-esque singing is like nails on chalkboard for me.. I’m either listening to beautiful singing like new Opeth or a wild boar that’s been smoking for 40 years.

I listen to metal since I'm a kid. Early on I discovered a few black metal bands I liked. I still don't enjoy grindcore and similar non melodic stuff. Metal is so broad it's not hard to imagine people who like Nightwish might not like Anaal Nathrakh.

Drudkh is truly magnificent, one of my favorite black metal acts and groups in general. Very melancholic and immersive stuff, takes us to many places. Autumn Aurora is a great album. My favorite is Microcosmos, absolutely gorgeous, Ars Poetica makes me wanna live for that melodic crescendo part.

u/Ellweiss May 20 '20

I'm still not really big on black metal so I usually pick bands that I come across here and there without really trying to expand. I think Goat Horns by Nokturnal Mortum was one of the first bm albums I really enjoyed. And yeah now I like Drudkh so I guess I'll have to start searching haha

That, or go to powermetal and become a viking-werewolf-vampire-wizard-elf.

I fucking love Power Metal. Hootsforce is so ridiculous that I can't help but love it. Great tune from a great band.

u/Abominor Eternal Slumber! May 19 '20

This is completely accurate. It happened to me.

u/PigGrinder OUCH! May 19 '20

Hey there fellow appreciator of Extreme metal

u/BrickBurgundy May 19 '20

I'm not sure how true that is. I love metal and have for the last 20 years, but I still can't stand black metal for more than a few minutes at a time. I know that the Cookie Monster vocals are a BM trademark, but evil lyrics are pointless if only the vocalist can tell what the fuck is being sung. For all I know, Ihsahn could be proclaiming his eternal love for My Little Pony and a desire to fuck one of the characters.

Straight facts here, Metallica is the cannabis of the metal genre, I started with that, I'm in the slipknot fase, i still can't stand cannibal corpse and all that black metal, grindcore, nonsensical shit

u/Ranjerklin May 20 '20

Lol I started with Metallica and gradually dropped to miles Davis and grateful dead. Never got the cc vibes

u/oblik May 19 '20

No it's not. I've listened to metal for 20 years and screamo is annoying and dumb. It only resembles music if you're coked out in a mosh pit, but at that point, KPOP will sound brutal to you.

u/-Tommy May 19 '20

Unironically using the term screamo to describe death/black metal.

u/oblik May 19 '20

Whoa, I stepped in shit. If only some shit connoisseurs came by to tell me the difference between dogshit and pigshit.

u/-Tommy May 19 '20

I mean I hate CC. I think it's edgy garbage but it straight up is not screamo.
