Death Metal

Death Metal is a form of music that mostly stays in the underground side of music with speed metal orgins, fast drumbeats, and a deep growl singing to it. Some death metal can be looked to as "crap" but so can most punk bands

Death Metal

Death Metal is probally one of the most unknown and unpopular genre's there is today, even though it is very hard to play and requires immense skill. The solo's are usually very high pitched and are fairly common. Bassist's play a big part in death metal and are usually extremely skilled. e.g alex webster of cannibal corpse. Most metal fans that dont like Death metal are usually dickheads who have never sat down and listened to the genre throughly before. Lyrics span from crazy gore and horror to politics to stuff about satan and the devil. Some people say that Death Metal is a bunch of noise, they are cunts who cant listen to music properly because even though the usually low vocals may make it sound like a mash of music it is really not!

may i mention i am only 13 and death metal is my favourite genre which may surprise some of you old-school death metallers who think death metal is nearly dead, which i hope it isnt! My favourite Death Metal bands are Cannibal Corpse, In Flames, At The Gates, Deicide, Carcass and six feet under

Death Metal

Possibly the weirdest sounding stuff ever. If anyone besides me wanted to ever know what it is like to listen to Death Metal, watch porn, it is a bunch of people screaming and sweating(I never did and never will do this). I do like the enthusiasm of the people though, but this is what it sounds like. It is very creative though, but not much talent is involved besides the solos. All in all it is a bunch of high pitched screaming with a 3 chord riff and breakdowns. I myself sometimes listen to it, for some of it isn't bad.

Death Metal is amazing. Its a guttural sound that brings out the homicidal necrophiliac in us all.
