And for the whole anger thing, I'm a great believer in positive aggression "Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean." Forget who said it though. But it kinda explains why I like a lot of metal (well Hardcore stuff), no excuse for the more extreme stuff.
Acacia wrote: » Hey, are you me by any chance? :pac: That's more or less how I got into metal as well! In fact, 'Hybrid Theory' was the first album I got ( buying a Spice Girls album on tape when I was eight doesn't count, right? )
Ah, the days of nu-metal! I remember pissing off my parents by wearing a 'Satanic' (:rolleyes:) Slipknot hoodie! Good times. Get Korn's self-titled album for angstyness, 'tis hard to beat. Also, Smashing Pumpkins 'Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness' basically was my soundtrack throughout my teens. Still love 'em. Deftones' 'Back to School' is a killer track as well. Also Nirvana's back catalogue! Recently got into a good metalcore band called Saosin, though I think they've been around for a while. I'm sure I'll think of more.

I guess it just holds good memories for me (ironically!). I do think Subliminal Verses is the best album, though. Korn are hit-and-miss, and I don't have any of their newer albums, seems like cack to be honest. Everything up to 'Untouchables' was class though. Yeah, I liked Green Day before 'American Idiot' too. That's when every Tom, Dick and Harry started to like them. They weren't cool after that (Just kidding!) I guess during the past few years, I started exploring punk and metal. I remember when Phantom FM was good,too. :P Aw, I love that song . Siamese Dream is brilliant too, as well as 'M. C. A. T. I. S' (couldn't be arsed typing that again!) You saw them live? *jealous* Jealous of you, too! :pac:

Now though, I never really listen to them but I was so into them it was untrue. I remember when I first listened to Ten, being absolutely blown away. Walking around school in a daze listening to that album. I miss those times now that I think of it. There's nothing better than being so into a band you struggle to enjoy anything else. Even though I don't listen to them much anymore, they'll always have a "special place in my heart" (for want of a better phrase)
