Any metal fans here?

[Paper Carnival]

ooooh thank you very much, thanks for clearing that up . I thought it was new scales I never heard of before

[Nikolas]

Well, actually I think that we're getting further and further away from Rika's original question. I have to be honest. I do listen to hard sounding bands (Tool, Korn, NIN), but I don't think that these bands belong to the territory of Metal. There you have it. I'm nbot really a Metal FAN, as you might have guessed.
But I'm open minded...

There's numerous metal bands whose recordings make for worthwhile experiences for people who are not interested in the 'lifestyle' aspect of it at all. Here's a few:

Maudlin of the Well
The 3rd and the Mortal
Psychotic Waltz
Pelican

[Ishmael]

I pretend to play guitar, but I only understood like half of the stuff Helm wrote about the chords and whatnot used in metal... (or my translating side of the stuff bailed out...) Guess I still have a lot to learn ¬¬
