I have not yet had enough coffee for you to be calling me out this early in the godsdamn morning.
OriginalAndWitty
Can't find a sound gif for this but... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A43JOxLa5MM
lilbrother
I believe this genre is Barn-core.
SoMuchPooPooSon
Based on this, I don't understand why they'd still not listen to metal.
FloatingOnACloudOfTitties
MinnesotaDuck, YAY! ?
Alexoyeah
When i was in a band my friends did this exact parody
jaijaikali
That's not bad actually.
Kightzeareau
The husky really captures the anguish of the soul
Redspacewaffle
most of the time i get annoyed when i tell someone i listen to metal and the other person is like: OMG THATS JUST SCREAMING.
Redspacewaffle
Deathmetal and normal metal are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS ><
Nexus297
I like a lot of Beauty and the Beast metal. Nightwish, Epica
masterolizardry
noOpeeee
(Oh,the story of them was so sad)

To be fair, some of it actually is that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0l24QmDkCY

No sound?!?!? How very dare you!

Duck got mad skillz tho
OneGuyWithSixGuns
And yet it sounds a whole lot better than all that shitty mainstream music.

i lost it at "what the dog doin"

You could pop this into the middle of Fantomas Suspended Animation and I probably wouldn't even notice.
Sandproblems
Deathcore all the way

Ngl, this slaps
thesavagery
That song (og version) is Unholy Confessions by Avenged Sevenfold. It was A7X's big break & features James Hetfield from Metallica. BANGER!
Djones06236
Album of the year 2023 contender.
TheBeatingOfHisHideousHeart
I think that duck needs an agent.
Lantyco
I was today days old when I realized I needed a farm animal metal band…..
SeasonedCitizen
No, this is exactly what metal sounds like.
unsneakyLurker
A lot closer to ACDC than Metallica or Iron Maiden, but still very much metal. I'd listen to a full track of this!
SeasonedCitizen
ACDC? I'll pretend I didn't hear that. They never called themselves metal, just rock and roll.
DeltaLaw
Also acdc has basic ass beats and riffs

NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
That is because the original song is metalcore lol
Rivalyn
There are an infinite number of subgenres of metal; somehow distinct from each other but nevertheless still metal.
W4RG4ZM
mckjm2
Depends on who is dying.
Br0doSwaggins
The Sound of Perseverance is one of the best metal albums of all time
W4RG4ZM
Abso-fucking-lutely
Cargobiker530
Honestly most metal sounds worse than that.
FeChefImgur
Was thinking the same, this is much more entertaining :)
Pesukone
You just haven't found the good kinds of metal.
Cargobiker530
I like the Hu & similar bands that retain a melodic core but Ramstein & thrash metal sound like car crushers eating guitars.
Pesukone
Thrash and industrial, including Neue Deutsche Härte like Rammstein, are both a bit of an acquired taste like most extreme music tend to 1/
Pesukone
be. Black metal and most styles of death metal too. Then there are entire genres and styles such as melodeath (see e.g. Gothenburg sound) 2/
Pesukone
that IMO bring melody and extreme stuff together in a really nice way. They have the growls and blast beats but also beautiful 3/
Burgundee
I really hate that so much modern metal thinks it needs shitty-ass screams or cookie monster vocals. There's a lot of good instrumentals >
SilkyAvenger
Modern? Growls been around for decades my man.
notacobra
Apocalyptica, without a single electric guitar, does metal better than most metal bands.
Richter12x2
Yeah, there's a guy whose music I really like that I found on YouTube, then he does the growl voice shit and I'm out.
Whorville
You should check out scale the summit, if you haven't yet
GerbilHereReportingLiveFromRichardGeresAss
I hate how the production value made it sound great but also sterile. How tf are drums sounding the same on all those records?
VioletCatastrophe
Try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDBykpSXsSE , has harsh vocals that are actually understandable, as well as beautiful clean vocals.
VioletCatastrophe
This song was honestly the gateway for me appreciating harsh vocals.
Nykidemus
I enjoy growls and screams but too much of anything gets old. Symphonic often has one growly male and a clean female on vocals, good balance
ReaperCDN
I mean that's certainly ONE of the genres. Then there's a ton of other great metal that doesn't do this. Like Gloryhammer if you want /1
ReaperCDN
clean vocals. Nightwish for solid symphonic metal. 2/2
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
Nah. Clean vocals are cool and I love bands that use them but I am here for the goblins and demons lol. Gimme that visceral, throat tearin(1
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
Screaming. No other music or vocal style is as intense and cathartic imo.
Grenateh
I.e 99% of model since 2000
FuryFuryMon
all the good parts of the guitar and drums get drowned out by the inaudible noises. like dubstep deep base WUB WUB when it doesnt need to be
Craigpd
Angelmaker have a great melodic twist on their playing that brings a pretty good vibe to things. Vocals are sort of Lilith-era Chelsea Grin
Craigpd
Hell. Prime example because now listening through albums again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daHfvRYVtwc
Craigpd
Hell, while recommendations are flying; Vola. Another great band. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9Akzp5Oqww

This clip totally looks like a guy entered a pro wrestling match
OlympicFail
Ghost sounds like a cross between Weezer and Fountains of Wayne.
Nuggetti
You seriously think Cattle Decapitation or Dying Fetus would sound better with clean singing? Let the music and style dictate the methods.
1metalnation
Yeah. No one in their right mind can tell me Infant Annihilator or Archspire would be better with clean vocals.
DaneBrass
THANK YOU
BooRidley
Musician here. Some of the most intellectual music (as far as music theory) comes from heavy metal.
Grenateh
Heavy metal isn’t the same as trash. Wet not talking about Metallica or Megadeth or anthrax or maiden or priest or manowar or slayer
PandaWaffleking
Totally. But there is shit metal music too. Like there is good country. And shit country music. Just the name of.the game.
Heisanevilgenius
I remember hearing about a bunch of musicians who hated metal and made up a parody metal band to mock it but ended up changing their tune
Heisanevilgenius
In the process of looking at metal bands to make fun of, they really really got into it and now their parody is more of a loving tribute
CatSingularity
how are you gonna say this and not drop thier name
farfie

InvisibleMan86
Meshuggah has entered the chat
BooRidley
Lol real talk though, their drummer is from another universe. I’m sure of it.
UltraDi3000
Once heard someone say "your favorite drummer's favorite drummer is probably Tomas Haake".
InvisibleMan86
I’ve been playing and studying drums for 20+ years, and have seen them live. I struggle to comprehend what’s happening with Haake sometimes
Aragorn195
Ugh, music theory. The last time I heard music theory was from a cunt that could not stop shitting on my fav band every time they were 1/2
Aragorn195
mentioned, citing music theory as proof that they were bad. So every time I hear music theory, I think of arrogant bastards. 2/2
ReaperCDN
Like any art, it's completely subjective. What you like is what you like. If something is technically more difficult, it just means hard /1
ReaperCDN
to play because of the complexity. It sure as fuck doesn't mean better. Better is up to the listener. 2/2
Aragorn195
Ps. Not saying you’re like that but that’s what I think upon hearing Music Theory
loma45
Music theory is just a tool - I looove me some complex, theory driven arpeggios/shredding/etc in metal. I also love 4 chord pop songs. The1/
loma45
dude who used it as "proof" a song was bad is just dumb. There's no objective "good" or "bad", even in music theory. 2/2
PoppinLochNessHopster
Hell, Dream Theater are some of the most technically talented musicians around and they're boring as fuck to listen to. Musicality>theory.
PoppinLochNessHopster
(Except for a few bangers, The miracle and the sleeper, Glass prison, Dance of eternity, that's about it.)
eetsumkaus
You have to be in a state of mind to want to listen to longer songs with longer transitions. I've listened to their albums front to back
Burgundee
that get drowned out by vocals that sound like a garbage disposal.
SenfinaZeit
Me listening to metal cover of pop songs being like "why isnt regular metal this good"

This one has not transcended yet.
Andromus
I didn't like metal because of how much of it sounded like that. But I discovered metal is diverse, and there's some great stuff out there.
Rips4w
If youre listening to metal with those types of vocals( be honest, you aren't) and the music is being "drowned out" (again, no.) then you -
Rips4w
- are probably listening to some terribly mixed independent garage type music.
TomBrokaw
Eh, I like Fractalize way better than Vildhjarta specifically because it's instrumental, and I wouldn't describe the latter that way
Dionysus187
For me its not so much "drowned out" as much as it's very existence spoils the music entirely regardless of the mix
KazabWebShaper
I can recommend polythia if you don't know them already give them a listen
loma45
Try "I Built the Sky". Amazing instrumental metal that's also musical
loma45
Especially "The Zenith Rise" album
KazabWebShaper
I'll give them a listen
coothlesscthulhu
Not a garbage disposal, just a skilled throat hole
nightster07
Who is she?
Semiflaccid
I think that was more of a problem from the 2000s and early 2010s, I feel in the past 10 years or so, it's gotten a lot better. May just...
Semiflaccid
Be my experience, which isn't necessarily correct lol
SybilCrawley
Maybe your hearing has changed, and so you perceive it differently now than you did then.
Syrpynt
I noticed a lot of my harder bands went to less growls and more singing with growl (supporting) vocals. And I love it, because I am old now.
Syrpynt
I'm 32M but I grew out of my phase where it was only 'good' if it was angery. lol
Vulpesferrilata
Why I like Dream Theater so much.
davesaint01930
John petrucci taught me to play guitar
eetsumkaus
pretty much the only metal I listen to. Well Metallica's early stuff too but I guess it depends who you ask if that's "metal"
wythra
Metallica's early stuff is Thrash metal, their 90s and after stuff is the contentious stuff. DT fan? Check out Ocean, Cynic, CaligulasHorse.
wythra
and if you haven't given Nevermore a fair shake, I've recently been blown away, I like Warrel Dane's voice better than James LaBrie's!
