Yes. It was. Your sig is cool because Dio but fuck these songs are gay. There is a reason they are "uncategorical" and it's because it's fucking try-hard "look how different we are!!!" metal.
The only fucking thing anyone needs is Traditional, Speed, Doom, Black, Death, and Thrash. Everything else can go fuck itself.
well there are some good bands out there that combine different styles
bands like Therion have been doing crossover shit for years, and much of it is badass. mainly the older stuff, but the newer stuff has some good moments
the latest Therion was crap though
