Why? If a band is really, really good, why would I stop listening to it or stop liking it?yeah, 17 years? i can't believe these are your favorite bands...
I'm not sure I understand your attitude. Yes I'm aware there's a lot more metal out there, and I've listened to it. I've heard thousands of different metal bands. Obviously I just didn't consider it to be all that good or else I would have mentioned it.But there's so much metal out there that lists like that look silly. As Krow said, it literally looks like he simply googled "Top heavy metal bands" and copy pasted a list.

I can almost hear the furious googling.And of course I'm familiar with Pentagram and Sir Lord Baltimore. I enjoy their music of course.
MC is definitely NOT a heavy metal band. They're a rock band. This is painfully obvious.
signature krow post.It's like someone googled heavy metal....
Skid Row fucking owns. Easily some of the best in the hair/glam style.Shout At the Devil can easily be considered metal.
It isn't as good as Skid Row's first two when it comes to that style though.
Other bands I like and enjoy:i'd be more inclined to recommend him a bunch of less known USPM, NWOBHM and proto-metal stuff, if he has the humility to take recs from lowly infidels such as us. '70s and '80s trad is a rich enough diet to sustain anyone for a lifetime.
Not sure why you're giving me crap. It's not like Pentagram or Sir Lord Baltimore are that underground anyway. I first discovered Pentagram like 7-8 years ago, so...I can almost hear the furious googling.
I have an extreme passion for 70's and 80's metal, and I honestly feel that in general, music started to get shitty after 1990. I've held this opinion for many years and I'm sticking to it. I absolutely hate and despise the music that was and still is coming out during my time as a metalhead. Better stuff coming out in 1999 compared to traditional metal? I can't emphasize enough how much I disagree with that on every level.there's much more and better stuff out there, though. also, it's not like he's a metal dinosaur that never grew past patched denim jackets and mullets. if i read correctly, he started listening to metal in 1999. there's plenty of great non trad stuff to be heard around that time.
like someone else said, it's like he looked up "what metal bands do beginners need to like to seem old school?"
^ Lol
I agree. But do you remember when you said Metallica's black album was hard rock/not metal?
