It's amazing how limited people's taste in music is. I would expect, at least from people who listen to Opeth, to be fairly open to nearly anything out there. Evidently, I was wrong.
Metal is a unique genre in the fact that it can introduce you to musicians who have a wide spectrum of musical taste. They incorporate their influences to their music, and mix a unique blend of rock, metal, classical etc.
Typically, that's what opens the listeners' minds even further, and presses them to pursue other forms of music that their favorite musicians are inspired by.
Metal is also unique because once it does broaden the listener's tastes in music--very mildly it seems--they remain stagnant. In other words, most metal heads are very limited, and close-minded in their music. I've never heard people so hostile towards a genre (hip-hop) as I have in the metal community. Which is a shame, because in the end, metal is no different than hip-hip: most of it is underground and obscure, the good stuff that is, while the majority of it sucks immensely.
Majog, if you were serious at all in your posts, go crawl under a rock. You're a prime example of the typical metalhead. Posting Cannibal Corpse lyrics doesn't help you look any better.
Personally, the re-mix wasn't that good, even though his word flow was solid. There's a lot of good hip-hop out there, you just have to look for it. And I would agree that UK rap has a lot to offer.
EDIT: Though, Majog, you do provide some entertainment with those posts.
Yep. Nerd.
