Also mention your favorite bands.

 

Some of my favorite bands are TesseracT, The Contortionist and Animals as Leaders.

 

Favorite genres are Progressive, Djent, Technical Death metal and Avant-garde (also experimental, forgot it)

I personally don't enjoy 9-string guitars, but that doesn't change the fact that they look awesome as hell!

Not sure if it counts, but it's one of my favorite songs of all time.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs

Favourite bands include: Firewind, Feared, Children of Bodom, Death and Amon Amarth.

Ola Englund does not approve of your hashtags. Sleep is for the weak, insomnia builds character.

As you are reading this you are slowly traveling forwards in time to where you will get out of the time machine and continue to read posts. Too spookyfor100me.

MetallicA, pantera, Avenged sevenfold, mastodon with their (imho) killer riffs., Children of bodom, black sabbath (if its classified as metal), we butter the bread with butter (check 'em out by the way), oh MetallicA (another time because I like them so much :P), judas priest, slayer, Antrax has some good songs, oh and who doesn't like Maiden? Slipknot and System of a Down are also amazing. And bullet for my valentine, its not really metal but more like emo-rock but who gives a fuck, I like it.

 

edit forgot to mention, Amon Amarth and inflames.

I have no idea what the difference between those are.

 

What type does AC/DC and George Thorogood fall under?

Mind if I plug a guy I've worked with before? I'll spoiler it...

My god his stuff is beautiful.

Anyways, I'm currently really into symphonic metal. To the point where I'm trying to cover some electronic songs in a kind-of symphonic metal format.

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

Wiki says that acdc is "hard rock"

I personally don't enjoy 9-string guitars, but that doesn't change the fact that they look awesome as hell!

I have no idea what subgenres they belong to, but Intervals and Periphery are my top two. I also really like broken cross by architects

Feel free to message me if you want to chat!

Luckily confined to 80s retro parties and bars for 30 to 40 year olds

 

In any case there's plenty of talk about genres and not enough music, so something that kicks ass:

Avenged, (Scream Aim Fire era) BFMV, Disturbed, Metallica, Trivium, and Carach Angren are my favorites (that I can think of off the top of my head).

 

Here's a sampling of CA for those who don't know them.

yeah i agree, i don't like their newer albums at all and live performances of any band really aren't good imo
