Hm, I'd enter a contest of actual original musical creations open to all "genres". But I tend to view music as coming in genres of 1 piece each. 12/22/2007 08:59
Gee Metalheads as ussual are making dicks out of themeselfes by being closed minded and saying metal is like some king of all music oo yeah ur so manly. I know Metal is a passionate genre ok it takes almost everything to the extreme the never ending guitair solos the screaming vocals. but for godsakes lighten up ok, its just music 12/14/2007 04:11
What's with the bizarre need for one to be declared best. Maybe all music is wonderful. I think people are growing narrower and stupider with each passing year. Sad really. 12/01/2007 20:26
should be a whole separate thing for metal since there are many subgenres of metal like thrash, death, black, power, doom, progressive etc 12/01/2007 18:50
could have found better reps for ANY music - how about Springsteen, Areosmith, Leonard Skinnard, Greenday - anything but rap crap, hip hop, try some real MUSIC 12/01/2007 18:22
AC/DC is definitely not metal. Dimebag is rolling over in his grave now. They were hard rock that had elements of metal, but they were not a Metal Band 12/01/2007 17:12
they are metal. havent u ever listened to them before?
Ive seen them four times live, even with bon scott and u cannot tell me they are not metal. They will tell u they are rock because they are and because it reaches a broader market in popularity. Last time i checked, metal is rock and always has been!! I grew up on the stuff!!
Long live rock and metal!! 12/01/2007 17:08
AC/DC is NOT metal. they've said it themselves. they are Rock and Roll. not Metal. now, if they sucked, i'd say they were Metal. but they are GODS. so let's respect the wishes of the Rock Gods from Down Under and recognize them as Rock and Roll. and also as sheer genius. 12/01/2007 16:35
dude. I do have to say to all me fellow metal heads. You shouldn't be surprised by the lack of metal. I must say that metal truly is the greatest genre out there, but it is hated by most people because they do not know what true metal is. In fact I am happy that they didn't put metal on there or its sub genres because they would use a crappy band like System of a Down or something to represent it. 12/01/2007 15:53
At first i thought all other types of music but hip hop were BAD!!! but resently, i gave them a shot and found most of it to be quite interesting! so you never know people, open your mind and try new things, they might not be half bad. 12/01/2007 15:43
Though I like yahoo topics usually, this one's worst I've ever seen. Whoever came up with this lame topic should be fired because they are clearly out of ideas. It's the same as saying what is the best color, there is no best color because it's opinion based as with music. Dull… Maybe if the question was what band is the best within a specific genre. You could then say that because of how many songs they've had on the top billboards or whatever that one band could be considered better than the other, but whatever. 12/01/2007 11:34
wow… you guys are sad..... all you guys care about is metal in all caps… you guys just needa calm down theres so much better music out there then just metal… sure ill be the first to admit metals amazing but theres just so much more out there that you guys havent even scratched the surface on… just go try listening to other music then metal i guarentee youll like it 12/01/2007 10:33
Whoever said Grunge killed rock is just not a music person. It was an extension of rock. Which was an extension of blues...and jazz… In addition, it was creative, adventurous, and simply progressive. Moron. I guess Zeppelin were just another British pop band looking for American airplay, too. wow… 12/01/2007 10:30
where the heck is the metal category? You'v mentioned most of the other music genre but where's HEAVY METAL and don't say hard rock is metal because it isn't. Get your act together there arknoids. let ME throw in another vote for BEETHOVEN, BACH, MOZART , GREIG and ROB HALFORT, DIO and OZZY...long live METAL!!!!! 12/01/2007 10:18
Grunge led the demise of rock & roll. We can thank Kurt and his bunch of losers for the evolution and world take over of hip-hop and rap. Grunge killed rock and roll IMHO… Sad. 12/01/2007 10:02
punk is the best it kicks everyones ass it started everything from from good music,movies,fashion,books,and alot of stupid crap people like 12/01/2007 08:26
