One last thing, it makes me even more angry when a CD or player is hailed as a metal savior. Metal doesn't need to be "saved." Metal never has needed to be saved, and never will.
Right you are. Heavy Metal never died either. Grunge never killed Metal. Even if all Metal bands disappeared, all it would take for the genre to stay alive by definition, would be for one single person to keep on listening to the music. Metal surely lost popularity in the late 80s and early 90s but it never died as some people claim.
