One word:Power metal(okay, technically two). This is used to describe the speedy, melodic sub-genre of metal originally known as "true" metal to the cool
people that made it. Sadly, power metal is very very somewhat very misunderstood by a majority of metalheads, but just know it's actually pretty cool. Btw I personally think Dragon Force and Hammerfall are where it's at (may be biased because they got me into power metal). Basically, it may not the metal you're used to, but that doesn't make it bad at all; it might just be better. Plus, power metal musicians should be given more credit considering that one song can
literally be all solos.
Overall power metal breaks through the usual and barely lives up to its
stereotype of being cheesy and lame. After all, I should know, I am and have always been a huge
Metallica/thrash metal/heavy metal fan. 😆Hechyea to all metal.
I want to listen to power metal today, and some other random
sub-genre of metal some other
time.
Power metal can be cool, just
chill
