I like the old more musically-driven kind as opposed to the modern kind where there's a high emphasis placed on technique as opposed to what sounds good. Don't want to sound pretentious but as a guitar player I just don't find metal attractive, I just feel there's a lot more distortion/gain to hide behind compared to other genres. I think a lot of modern metal acts could learn a lot from the "less is more" attitude, I just don't see the appeal in listening to some guy play 300 notes in 10 seconds as opposed to playing 3 or 4 that sound good.

In the meantime, we sat through a Bring Me The Horizon song and it was literally just the lead singer screaming like a banshee into the microphone, bent over double like he was tearing his diaphram in two. My aunt just looked at me like I had ten heads and went "You call this music?!" I must admit, I'm not a huge fan of the screamo- brand of metal outside of Slipknot but I *do* like this track: It's currently the only Bullet For My Valentine song I regularly listen to. Never bothered to look up more but if anyone can give me recommendations, that would be super. Incidently, I managed to get my aunt into both Linkin Park and Rob Zombie. Give me a few weeks- I shall turn her to the dark side! :pac:
