power metal

A form of metal. Power Metal takes its roots from 80's metal bands such as Iron Maiden, Manowar, and Dio. Power Metal usually employs the use of guitar and vocal harmonies, with the vocals in almost every case being sung cleanly (one excpetion is Demoniac, which is Blackened Power). Drummers in this genre must be very adept with double-bass pedals, for they are almost constantly using them.
Being a very melodic style of metal, Power Metal is very intricate and difficult to write. It is one of the most difficult genres of metal to play, with Progressive (and Neoclassical) being possibly more difficult.
Lyrics commonly found in Power Metal are based around mythology, elves, war, greed, weaponry (most commonly swords), brotherhood, horses, magic, demons, dragons, and other fantasy-based topics. This makes Power Metal a perfect choice for D&D players (sadly, I am one) and people who enjoy fantasy novels.

Other bands play, Manowar KILLS!

metamours

Your partner's other partners, that you are not romantically or sexually involved with. My girl/boyfriend's other boy/girlfriends.

A partner has several other partners. Each partner of a partner is a metamour. Collectively they are all metamours. Often used in polyamorous communities.

I'm dating F. He also has a partner J and another partner Z. J and Z are my metamours. We practice polyamory.

sludge metal

Unlike how Dnite described it, sludge is NOT doom and stoner metal, sludge is unique from those two genres of music. but takes a lot of influence from them. sludge builds upon doom metal, by adding highly distorted guitars and vocals reminiscent of hardcore punk.(yelled, or shrieked, rather than sung or growled) Often mixing in slight blues influences as well. Has a sort of fuzzy sound, with often very melancholic lyrics.(lyrics about drugs, are not uncommon). Dnite did get one thing right, tho, sludge metal does take high influence from early bands like the melvins.

Such sludge metal bands include bongzilla(mix of sludge and stoner), fistula, crowbar,rwake, and electric wizard.

Metal Detecting

Dorky looking, but an awesome hobby where you find coins and jewelry while beach combing.

Metal Detecting. It's only March and already this year I have found $18 in change, 3 silver rings, 2 14K gold rings and a diamond and sapphire engagement ring that I recently sold for $875.00. Yay me!

fake metalhead

Usually people who are ex-swagfags are pretending to be emo and listen to music by sleeping with sirens and pierce the veil even though pierce the veil is not an actual metal band in reality it is rock however a fake metalhead probably started listening to fake metal in early 2013 or late 2012. Real metalheads usually know the difference between the posers and the real deal (i am personally more of a rock fan but i enjoy some metal) fake metalheads are also normally female (though some male too) and are normally between the ages of 12 and 14.

Fake metalhead: omgomgomg i <3 kellin quinn and sws they so hot omg yea i hate justin bieber and one direction im different YEA

Actual metal fan: cool. Ever listen to black sabbath?

Fake metalhead: lol who

pedal to the metal

When the accelerator is pushed so far it cant move any more- in some cars it hits a metal bar, or the end of the footwell (which is hopefully made of metal).

Hence the term pedal to the metal. Obviously if you have the accelerator all the way fowards youre gonna be gathering speed...or going fairly fast.

Crap! Cops, 6 o'clock, pedal to the metal Jerry!
