Haha, Mike, I tend to agree with you on alot of things, but Death Metal - shit? No way. I'll agree to the extent that some DM bands are pretty awful, but there's quite a few out there who are actually talented and not a bunch of long haired, make-up wearing teenagers screaming about being Satans bitch. Check out bands like Trauma, Nile and Decapitated, pretty much the best Death Metal out there these days.
No worries about the double post by the way.
Currently listening: Trauma - Frozen
