Aye, you're right there about Death Metal. In fact, I'm not a very big fan of Death Metal; I can tolerate it a lot more than I used to, but I still don't get much listening pleasure out of it. Luckily, not all Heavy Metal sounds like Death Metal (otherwise I wouldn't be listening to the genre at all); the Heavy Metal music that I get the most pleasure out of listening to are bands such as Saxon, Dream Theater, Nightwish, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Nevermore, etc. Those bands usually incorporate a lot melodic elements into their music (in fact, I should use the word "incorporate"; it's more embedded into the music). In fact, some of them actually use some very sophisticated and complex music theory (see Dream Theater).spartan231490 said:

2: I like hard rock and the less intense metals like thrash/punk (eg I'm a big fan of Disturbed and older metal bands like Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple). Not a fan of Death and speed metal though, plus screaming lyrics ruins a song for me. I have only heard one screamo song that I like.
