because they're homoes.
actually it's not really my cup of tea myself, but personally it's more "mood" music (ie. I want to destroy stuff speed down the highway and cause traffic accidents). Some good ole' Agent Orange or early Megadeth every now and then I like.

No atmosphere is my main gripe (don't bother pointing out obscure songs or bands). It's just riff as fast as you can, while your awful vocalist belts out usually-dumb lyrics. I've tried with a bunch of bands like Slayer, Megadeth, Coroner, Vio-lence, Sacred Reich, and many more, but it just ain't my thing. However, I do enjoy Suicidal Tendencies, Destroyer 666, The Haunted's first two, and some Sepultura. But overall, the genre is simply boring.
I usually like my music more mid-paced to fast, not hyper speed.

I know it's strange, but there are people that not only don't like Oprah, but DISlike her even! I'm actually surprised you're raising children in such a world, I would've given up by now.JayKeeley said:

Exactly. I like the odd thrash song, but I'm not a fan of the genre as a whole. I DUNNO WHY, IT'S JUST BECAUSE

Talk to Zod, he's a huge bourbon fan. I'm more into scotch, but I've learned to appreciate bourbon. Especially Woodford Reserve.cthulufhtagn said:that makes me a sad panda

Pretty much my thoughts exactly; I want my music to transcendental so to speak, not remind me of booze, cars, girls or other mundane things (yes I am generalizing, in the same way labeling all my other metal "trancendental"). But it works just fine as party music when I'm in the mood for that stuff, but not as "serious" music
I got plenty of stuff to think about in everyday life, when I thrash its BOOZE BITCHES AND BULLET BELTS party fuckin' time 666% Alchoholcaust Annihilation time! Argh!
Too drunk to be silent, can't stay on his feet
With a horrible language he crawls down the street
A pleasant condition, can't hold down the food
Fistful of vomits, he's now in the mood
When he starts tumbling and drops to the floor
It's the sign he awaits, he's got to drink more
Insulting the shorthaired, his arm starts to twist
Their nose bones receives the speed of the fist
He's dirty...he's alone...he's metal to the bone
HARDROCKER
The most incedent back at school, he always skipped the class
Told his teacher to fuck off and stick it up her ass
He'll never fit into the crowd, he'll never lose his pride
He won't allow no shorthaired heads, he would rather die
Shortcut hair in sight, no words are needed to start the fight
All discondance must end in broken bones
Enough to get him pissed, count the teeth you soon shall miss
Footprints in your swollen face shows the way it must be done
Criminaly tough and hard, headbanging where we lie
Whiplash-damage, aching neck, still banging till we die
We'll stand together to the end, ain't ever wimping out
We live and die the metal way, loud is all that counts
HARDROCKERS
EDIT: I also listen to a lot of "deep" Metal, I'm just saying, if you couldn't tell, I fucking love Thrash/Speed terror.

Yes, lyrics are important but they're (obviously) far from everything. Take Arckanum as an example, I can understand about half of his medival swedish, but the feeling using such a dialect gives is just immense togehter with the nautre ambience and riffing of course. But thrash metal only gives me feelings of aggression; a very limited expression in the long run
(Nehëmah "Black Winds Over the Wall of Csejthe" -- good song, though a blatant ripp-off of Marduk's Dracul Va Domni Din Nou In Transilvania
)

Thrash just doen't "involve" me as much as other music. I don't headbang and thrash about in a room, as I see that as neanderthal-ish as slam dancing.
Im more of the metal listener who puts on the headphones, cranks up the volume and lets the music take me away. Thrash just doesn't have a sense of "imagination", if that makes sense. Kinda like Decapitated.
Also, a lot of thrash that I've listened to in the past has lyrics based on corrupt governemnts and anti-establishment kind of stuff. I'm past that stuff.

Well I guess if you don't like Thrashing, then you don't like thrash. Thats a safe bet. Its an...active genre.

This thread sucks. "Metal needs to do ________ and ___________ and then ________ but at the same time not while doing __________ or involving ___________ and certainly not ______________. Then maybe I'll like it."
Henrik gets it. Tully gets it. The rest of you probably form a commitee before deciding what to eat for dinner every night.

I enjoy thrash immensely. One of my greatest pleasures is to sit down and listen to riff after riff as they blast by. It doesn't give me the emotional rush that black metal do at times, truth be told, but it makes a fine counter point.
