As a matter of fact there are only a few bands that I can listen to for a while and not get bored and they are from all different fields of music. Just for example, I can listen to Ray Charles and then listen to Nirvana then listen to Slayer. None of the same genres of course.

To say metal band never get global recognition is false. Think about it for a second, what about Black Sabbath, what about Metallica. And its funny because you said in the other thread that Led Zeppelin is a metal band, and up above you said they were a band that will never be forgotten.
Ah, you noticed the Led Zeppelin contradiction then? That was my idea of a little in-joke, just to show I don't actually take my opinions too seriously. I make ALOT of these jokes and if any bored sod was to look at posts of mine in different threads around the same time, they'd find them everywhere.

Anyway, I didn't say that a metal band has never gotten recognition, just one that I thought of as talented. Of course you could name Black Sabbith and such, but I guess I was blind to the bands of the past when I said that because my entire arguement was just how bad modern music is. I was more referring to the current metal scene. Sorry, as per-bloody-usual I forget a technicality and accidentally said something that was false. Exaggeration is partly to blame for this.

Anyway, I was more saying that to express just how little good bands are recognised nowadays. Who knows if there are metal bands today that are better than Black Sabbith? I don't, and that's exactly my point.
Then again, this has always been the way. Recognition does not coalate with talent. It's just that the current mainstream "hip" music is something that makes my eyes water it's so bad.

Again, I think the best way to solve this is to have the Punks come back and punch MTV in the balls.
I see, I can understand how you hate hip-hop as I do too, but I wouldnt say they have no talent. As for the nu-metal, its okay, but not great. I mean I listen to SLipknot on occasion, Im not a fan of the lyrics but I like the drums. This also goes for Slayer.

Anyways, its not argument, its discussion. It was good while it lasted
