What Metal Means to Me

To be honest, I don't like any kind of metal. I just spend all my money (whenever I have some leftovers from my beer funds) on metal CDs, but that's just to make people think I'm a tr00 eeevil metalhead. The kind of music I really like....Madonna, Backstreet Boys, Brintey Speared. :D

No laughing there.....I once was human just like you. :p

oh and I like the term true.. it just stands (or at least it should!) for classic metal, referring to being true to the roots! I don't like too many different influences in metal (like in nu metal, crossover) so true metal fits me fine (see all my urls and email addy hehe). In black metal I see it being abused unfortunately - I reckon that's where your reference to intolerance is coming from, Silkie..

I don't know.....I understand what you mean but I cannot help it..when someone refers to "true" I always see those leather, spikes and patches wearing guys that sing about the mighty warrior of steel or smth like that. You know, the kind of Metal we don't like :lol: I'm probably too much influenced by the media because they basically came up with that True Metal genre I reckon :rolleyes:

What Metal means to me, fun, life, solace...

@ Marlies: yes, 30 years ago we had Uriah Heep, Deep Purple etc... at that time it was so to say the heaviest ;)
but it was my start and it lead me into the music taste I have today.
Uriah Heep is to blame for all... and I still love them for it... and still listen to them these days
