[Zoner]

I like metal. Period.

I never was one for all the sub-genres. One person's death metal is another person's speed metal is another person's grind metal. oOo:

If a metal band has a talented vocalist who can actually sing, and great musicians backing him/her up, odds are I'll like it. It has to be heavy, melodic, catchy, and professional.

I don't want to hear a guy who sounds like Cookie Monster scream the words "I fucked Satan with a crowbar" over and over. I'd like to think I'm a little more thoughtful than that.
