>>715085270 There's better bands and albums out there, but they're solid enough. I grew up with my parents playing them, Metallica, and Queensryche constantly though so I'm a bit biased.
>>715085853 boomer metal is not anything like modern metal. and metal is an acquired taste. but give Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory by dream theater a listen
>>715085853 Really depends on your taste. There's many different kinds of metal. For me lately it's been Iron Maiden, Whitechapel, Death, and Motley Crue.

>>715087320 Iโm sorry, but Musty Daveโs Beavis vocals ruin whatever good riffs the actually talented members of Megadeth can write.
>>715090361 nigger most people hear metal music and are instantly turned off. its been that way since metal was conceived. there's nothing wrong with that being the case either.
>>715085853 There's varying kinds of metal, but if you want to skip all the sub-genres and just try metal, metal: Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and Metallica. Try listening to both old and new Metallica, because they changed their sound over the years when they used to be thrash metal. There are many subgenres; Korn is nu-metal, Motley Crue is hair metal, DevilDriver is groove metal... and you might like all of it. Or you might hate it. There's a LOT and it all can sound very different.
>>715090585 Most people hear various brands of music and either decide they don't want to hear it or do. I hear rap, country or hip-hop of anykind and my ears metaphorically bleed. People who like geriatric pop will often hate other brands and people who like classical or jazz do the same. Thats a human trait.
>>715091002 yes but to find for example rings of saturn tolerable to listen to you probably have been listening to metal for years. also if you don't like country you're a fag

>>715085862 I think it sounds nasally sinister. Perfect for metal. Just like his songs musically structured like Five Magics and most of so far so good isn't for everyone
Back to the screen where we began Feeling as good as perverts can, you know Yeah where feeling so good Looking a pics we shouldn't see Time to erase my history so they dont know Or its the end of my world Back to the screen where we began Feeling as good as pervs, you could, you can In to a place where dirty thoughts can bloom In to a room where it's nine in the after-goon
And you know that we could be But you know that we should
Cause it's nine in the after-goon And your dildos the size of the moon You could cause you came and you should Yeah where feeling so good, just the way that we do When it's nine in the after-goon.
>>715085853 First four Metallica albums - Thrash Metal Forbidden, Racer X, Riot V, Motorhead - Speed Metal Blind Guardian, Halloween, Gamma Ray, Sabaton - Power Metal Dream Theater, Symphony X - Progressive Metal Death, Cannibal Corpse, Obituary - Death Metal Traditional/NWOBHM - Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Judah Priest
There you go Biggest sub genres with most popular bands for each
>>715093178 Isn't yellow tortex a bit too thin for effective shredding? Normally I'd think you'd need one of the thicker variants. I don't know anything about guitars, btw.
>>715085270 Rust In Peace is good. Peace Sells is decent. Haven't heard the rest of their albums, since there are too many worthwhile metal albums out there to be stuck listening to big band's mid followups to their classics.

If you guys are trying to get into death metal I recommend stuff like Vader, Unleashed and later Gorefest albums. The vocals are more understandable.
>>715095402 I've been told that thin picks are mostly a crutch until you learn to accurately hit strings, it's definitely easier, you can go in too deep and it will flop over but I'm way too shit of a guitarist myself to be able to say if it actually has any other advantage.
>>715096060 Vader is entry level Master is another good entry level death band

I can recognise a Megadeth song in the first few seconds of an opening riff and it pisses me off every time, and I never know it's a Megadeth song beforehand. I just go Joe Pesci "wtf is this piece of shit" and sure enough it's a stupid Megadeth song. >>715095402 >>715096130 Personally I like a thicc 2mm pick for tremolo picking, makes assaulting the strings almost effortless. Some guitarists like to feel the strings resisting with a smaller pick.
>>715086726 Goregrind/Math/Chaotic/Slamming/Avantgarde/Raw Black/Funeral/Drone/Noise is acquired taste. Dream Theater is the most entry level band of one of the most entry level genres ever unless you've been eating nothing but onions since birthday.

>>715097541 And I have no problem with it. My problem is calling metal "acquired taste". You have to already be at least knee-deep into the metal before you get to anything that can be called that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqTtphYhEHc
>>715093097 >speed metal isn't a real subgenre When there's no punk influence (thrash) you have to put songs like these somewhere, and they sure don't fit with power metal
I never liked any metal band except Judas Priest. I don't know why. Something about their sound just clicks with me. It's like the perfect balance between speed and hardness. IDK i'm not a /mu/fag
>>715098562 IMO it's a pretty ill defined subgenre. I'd say Heavy, Thrash, Power, Doom, Death and Black Metal are the primary subgenres of metal. >>715098726 Painkiller is kind of the odd one out. It was their attempt at being faster and heavier. Their earlier albums are a lot more hard rock especially anything before Screaming for Vengeance.
>>715098871 If you want just shredding, full stop, then a guy named Buckethead is for you. Cacophony is good too since it's Marty from Megadeth's Rust in Peace days.

>>715100405 Is he now? >Mustaine was born on September 13, 1961,[15] in La Mesa, California,[16] (a nearby suburb of San Diego) to parents Emily Marie (nรฉe David) and John Jefferson Mustaine. His father was of French, German, Irish, and Finnish descent,[17][18] while his mother was of German Jewish ancestry.[19][20]
>>715100814 https://www.jpost.com/arts-and-culture/music/proving-its-mettle-369390 >A devout Christian, Mustaine discovered a family secret his mother revealed to him on her deathbed a few years ago โ he is Jewish! Emily David was born in Essen, Germany, in 1922 and arrived in the US with her parents when she was eight years old. Yikes they are kikes
>>715100524 Cliff Burton and Lars Ulrich are also Jews. Or should I say was because Cliff got fucked pwned by that bus

>>715101064 I mean, if his family converted to Christianity then it's cool. Christ was a jew but he was not having any of that backstabbing kikkery and the jews had him crucified for that.
>>715085270 Killing is My Business...and Business is Good! is fucking awesome. avoid the 2004 remaster, but the one that came later is good. Sadly only the original version of the album has a version of their cover of "These Boots" that isn't scuffed in some form, legal BS and all that.

i used to like the finger movements of live concerts/guitarists but after trying it myself a few times it seems they are hamming it up a ton during live shows and missing notes/playing wrong notes not like normies can tell
>tfw a bunch of teens made better music in their garage than metal bands that earned millions at huge stadium concerts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4heLKpSoso
