Sorry, couldn't resist

Hair bands and hard rock bands *were* metal at some dark, depressing point of the 80s. But the genre has evolved so we can conveniently brush them aside into the 'glam' genre...but tbh...grey area.

It's always a down side of going to metal gigs.. Wankers everywhere. It's a pity that the genre attracts a certain type of person in such large numbers.
Standard youtube comment on metal video "[band] is for old merkins/androtops, [OTHER BAND] IS f**kING AWESOME!"
I was just reading some of the old threads...arguments about what actually qualifies as metal are always amusing :lol:
This year, Soundwave will have that "Black Veil Brides" nonsense...
Though I can't complain. If you count Dimmu Borgir as goth, I loved them last year.
favourite bands?
Cradle of Filth - Midian. (I know, I shouldn't but i do!!)
Goths are fine, its bloody EMO kids i can't stand.
The genre will change, but it doesn't mean they are not part of the genre and should not be swept under the carpet.
Hair Metal bands like Motley Crew and Ozzy deserve more respect for there contribution to the overall metal Genre than most bands posted on this thread.
Whether you actually like there stuff or not.
Dimmu aren't goth mate.
Incidentally I noticed someone said they didn't like black metal earlier on but I was curious as to what sub-genre they were referring to specifically - traditional Norwegian? Symphonic black metal? Whatever it is Cradle of Filth are classified as? There are a shitload of different types of black metal ...
It was me, mostly because watching the metal show on Channel V back in the day (Amped) had heaps of norwegian black metal like Immortal, Stryricon, Emperor some others I can't remember.
I don't mind the odd Cradle of Filth song but on a whole not into Black metal. So i guess it's not that I can't stand it, it's just I don't like it.
Yeah good point. Ive seen Crue live and they are OK for what they are. Mick Mars aint too bad. Skid Row probably fall into that category too.The genre will change, but it doesn't mean they are not part of the genre and should not be swept under the carpet.

Does anyone else remember that channel being called Red prior to V or did i make that up?
