    Any LGBT fans of extreme metal here?

    I'm a moderator on a gay extreme metal forum, and it's quite low on members. I'm just wondering, is this because it's so new, or because we just don't really exist?

    Hmmm... Swallow the Sun are some pretty damn epic death/doom. Sadly, their best track is no longer on myspace (Hold This Woe). Don't Fall Asleep is good, they've got a video of that somewhere on that page.

    Insomnium (who seem to tour with STS a lot, actually) are melodic death metal - check out The Day It All Came Down. Love that song.

    I like extreme metal. I'm partial to Russian Metal though.

    Might you post the link to the forum on here? I would like to check it out...

    Oh, and if anyone wants free legal Russian gothic music (it has lots of metal) this is a great website: http://reviews.gothicmusic.org/groups.php?index

    Death metal's my favorite type of extreme metal. Here's my last.fm page (complete with metal band logos down the side)

    Some extreme metal is okay. Does Nightwish count as extreme metal?

    I hate death metal. People with cheap halloween masks growling into microphones is not my kind of music.

    Ah ^^ well I like what I've heard of black metal, but don't own any...well aside from Cradle, but their status as Black Metal is debatable.

    I listen to some Death, though ^^ Behemoth and early Fear Factory are my ideal sound. I also listen to sweedish death metal, like Soilwork, Darkane and Arch Enemy.

    Aside from that, the majority of the metal I listen to is Thrash (early metalica, Lamb of God) and Industrial (Rammstein, Fear Factory, Ministry, and Static X if you want to call them metal).

    Nope, as much as I love Nightwish I just hate how popular they have become. People that don't even like metal listen to them and that angers me. Metal is for people with acquired and matured music tastes, not for everyone!

    For your info, Nightwish is Symphonic Metal (its a Symphony orchestra mixed with Metal themes and instrumentals. :wink:)

    I hate people with their close minded and incorrect views on metal. :slight_smile: Seriously everyone says that and they only say that because they've heard someone else say it. The only band I know that wears crappy masks is SlipKnot and they suck ass and are Nu-Metal I believe (no relation to metal)

    Do you know why they do the death growls? Theres a reason behind it.

    You don't like that feeling?

    God, as much as I love you Tom, I HATE it when people say Slipknot isn't metal.
    Fine Nu-metal, call it what ever you like, but what makes it not metal???
    You have the right to despise the band as much as you want but I see everywhere on the net people saying that mainstream metal bands aren't metal... WHY??
    (wiki)
    Sounds like metal to me, no other style uses that type of music.

    lol it is metal but its mixed with rap, hence why metal fans don't count it as metal. =P (unless of course they like it)

    I understand where you're coming from though, I hate it when people consider AC/DC just hard rock, I consider it metal. (even if AC/DC call themselves just rock, what do they know?!)
