So you like grindcore but you don't like death metal? How does that work?

 

Most likely for the same reason that it works with me, Grindcore tends to be shorter and has a faster paced feel to it, while Death Metal is longer and tends to get boring about 2 or 3 minutes in the song.

So you like grindcore but you don't like death metal? How does that work? And what's with the quotes? What do you mean by death "metal" and black "metal"? 

grindcore is basically thrash with influences in Crust or D-beat. I hate that growling crap... i just like their drummers. when i refer to death "metal" and black "metal"... to me, that's not metal. metal is supposed to be epic or it can be dark with clean vocals that tell a story or just sound hardcore. it's not supposed to sound like cookie monster on steroid rage or like a screeching prepubescent girl screaming Satan every couple verses

You mean like power metal? (BTW, I hate power metal). Clean vocals are just kinda lame really. And what's so bad about singing about "Satan"? It's just shock value, it's no biggie.  

[Champion RD92 8,658]

I basically just listen to whatever bands I like, mostly within the rock/metal genres. I don't usually like softer rock, I like heavier rock. When it comes to metal, I don't typically like really extreme metal like death metal, black metal, or grindcore, but there are exceptions. 

[Daichi 0]

I am into a lot of Eastern Asian music (i.e., K-Pop, J-Pop and K-Rap.) And I do like old school rap (i.e., 2Pac, Biggiesmalls, Gang Staar, etc.) And techno, gotta love that techno music!!!!!!!!

[SpadesOfDarkness 19]

My favorite kind of music is dark alternative music or as some people call it "Gothic Rock" (though I hate using that term).  My favorite bands in the genre include Alien Sex Fiend, Bauhaus, and Virgin Prunes.

 

On a side note I don't care for industrial of heavy metal groups.  All I hear are screaming people that uses shock value to get people's attention.  But it other people like them, then more power to them.  It's just that I don't personally care for that kind of music.

[Mr Hacky Sack 3]

I'm mostly post-hardcore. Like if you know about Warped Tour, I'd listen to any of the bands. But I mostly listen to Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, I See Stars, Hands Like Houses, Palisades, and Of Mice & Men. Not Sleeping With Sirens or Pierce The Veil though. I don't have anything against them, but I just don't like how they sound.

[MotoBrony 77]

I primarily listen to Heavy Metal or Hard Rock. My favorite bands being Megadeth, Clutch, Metallica (Before Lulu and St. Anger. *Shudder Shudder*) and Lamb of God. 

But I'll listen to anything good (Daft Punk, Gorillaz). I occasionally listen to *some* rap, IE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccvueqgEALg
