    Well, I mean the CGI, not the situation. I'm pretty sure the North Bay Bridge wouldn't experience that yet.

    Here's something I just found out, there was a Motorhead song on SpongeBob, no really here the song I think this comment from Jon Kelley really took the words from my mouth, "Dude. Motorhead played a song in SpongeBob. Can we just acknowledge how fucking awesome that is?".

    This version of the song is the closest to what I would expect. Metal would fit the anger induced in the lyrics, so this version legitimately captures that.
    (It's my thoughts.)

    Honestly, kinda crap, the sheer amount of auto tune added nothing to the song besides saying "I probably can't sing"and made him sound incredibly non human. Style still didn't particularly fit either. I think something more akin to disturbed's sound of silence cover would do it more justice, a fairly accurate cover of original song but with a voice carrying more weight

    That's pretty much metal for you. A heavier voice (besides deathcore and "screamo*") with heavier sounds from the same instruments that any other genres will have (besides ones that focus on one instrument.) and might have a dark story.
    *Not a real genre

    That's a pretty broad generalization of a genre.

    Yeah, that's what I was doing, simplifying the Metal genre.

    What I mean to say is that not all Metal is how you described.

    Well, it's your perspective. If I didn't define Metal, then you define it then.

    Metal comes in various forms, you got power metal, thrash metal, hard metal, what you described. Then you have alternative metal, rap metal, melodic metal, etc. Not all of it is deep voices and death. What you said is like me saying all rap is a load incomprehensible words rhymed, all dubstep is just a bunch of noise, all rock 'n' roll is a bunch of old guys singing about cheating and making love, all modern R&B is a bunch of whiney people complaning and that none of said genres of music are "Real Genres". As you said, you have your opinion and I have mine. I like certain genres and dislike others, but I don't denounce a genre simply because I have a sweeping general opinion on it.

    I know what alternative metal is. (I'd might define it wrong tho.) It's more of the softer or subtler version of metal. Bon Jovi is one of those artists in that genre. (Only his old works, his newer songs are not the same sub-genre.)

    I always considered Bon Jovi more Hard Rock if anything. But yeah that's kinda the jist.

    Well, that's why it's called "alternative" metal after all.
    Also, for some reason, Slipknot might be classified as itself for a genre. Corey denied that they are in the genre of nu-metal, or the genre Korn, Nine Inch Nails, etc. is classified as.
    (I'm sure "screamo" is not gonna be the classification, it's just a genre that people made up only because those bands include tons of screaming in their songs.)

    I was never into the whole screamo stuff myself, mostly bands like Iron Maiden, some Avenged Sevenfold albums though I'm not quite into their newer albums.

    The heavier the voice, the more childish it appears. Here is an example:

    It is even intentionally made not to be taken seriously (it's good tho).

    Here's some metal (that is definitely metal) where the sounds are not that heavy:


    And not always!:


    Music taste is a personal thing tho. I like my metal with some words of couragement . The more violin, the better.

    Metal is another genre with way too many subgenres.... I couldn't even really name the subgenres I listen to.

    Let's see here: Black Sabbath is Heavy Metal/Epic Doom, Sleep and Electric Wizard are both Stoner Doom, Iron Maiden is Heavy Metal and so is Judas Priest and Opeth is just Prog Rock but it's called "Prog Metal" for some reason
    --- Post updated ---
    No offence but isn't that called "Crossover"? Also, Faith No More (y)
