Not much. I only like a handfull of bands that are not metal but they are rock: Old 70's Rainbow with Dio,old Kiss (although I don't listen to them anymore)Motorhead,Pentagram,Tank's first album. Thats pretty much about it. I like some old Tom Petty. I'm extremely narrow-minded with music,its all metal pretty much for me but thats what I like,it doesn't bother me that I don't like other genres of music but to each his own eh?

True, but you're missin' some great stuff.

Well,thats open for opinion. "Great stuff" to you may be not so great to me,same with some of my stuff isn't so great to you. There may be some metal that you don't like that I would think your missing out on,but we can only like what we like,just like food.

Metal I don't like? http://www4.images.coolspotters.com/...ture-micro.jpg

I just mean if you listen to other types of music, you might find you like it.

Well I'm now 40 years old and belive me,I've heard basically everything and nothing grabs me.

Here is something I've always liked that isn't "metal"
Lord Wind,frontman from Graveland.

Yeah, clearly not metal...sounds like it'd be pretty good for a movie soundtrack.

Now, try this on for size. This one is also a far cry from metal, but I like it.

Well thats a bit too far out of the ballpark for me,but I respect the fact that you enjoy it.Same with Plthijinx's System Of A Down but I respect that he likes it.

Pentagram - Live Free And Burn

pretty cool vid of 5 finger death punch in iraq

Well bands like Five Finger Death Punch are anything but traditional as this thread was created to "aviod" these kinds of bands but to each his own.

oops! :D alright then how about this?
of course i had to work and missed the show.....
i will be taking the day off if need be for chucks b-day bash btw froth so work that into the schedule if i'm still there.....

i just found out what the previous song was about from darren, the drummer. chuck, the lead singer, when he was young got cancer and lost his right eye. doc's didn't know if he would live. chuck said when this was happening in his youth that he prayed to Jesus and that everything would be ok. his son had the same thing happen. gives more meaning to the song. love the lyrics.

Hey plthijinx,I wasn't complaining about it,its just that I was trying to create a thread to escape the alternative sounding bands ect...no worries
