Is there anybody else here who loves this beautiful and highly expressive form of music?

I love it and would love to have a sort of 'metal' fan club where other people who have an interest in metal from around the world, in any language, and any type of metal, is welcome to join me in the glorification of one of the world's most awesome creations!

Uuhm. yeah, Metal is great, I mostly listen to either Classical Music or Metal. Bands I listen to are from quite some different subgenres. Power, Black, Folk or Death Metal, however most of the stuff I listen to is quite melodical.

I lovesssss metal. I like every kind of music but I was born and raised in a metal household and that stuck with me. Just not nu-metal(which isnt metal at all btw) and rarely do I like really cheesy symphonic metal.
It just appeals to my ears metal does.

Metal, heil metal !!! :lol: Nothing can be more refreshing than listening to it when you have a dark mood.

Metal occupies up to 60% of the space in my playlist, mostly melodic death, gothic and doom. The majority of my :congrats: :yiihi: :burning: bands are from Europe.

Opeth, Agalloch, Daylight Dies, Lacuna Coil, Virgin Black (this one is from 'Straya), Haggard, Korpiklaani... to name a few.

Worship old stuffs of Tristania and Theatre Of Tragedy. Love Nightwish too, though they are going down.

Then there's Rammstein - the only industrial band I like. Their lyrics is awesome.

Nu-metal is not metal, just jazzed-up mainstream rock. So I don't think I'll talk about it here. Nor do I think anybody else should.

Joining. I listen to metal a lot, though not to a many bands. It's Iron Maiden, Blind Guardian, Hammerfall, some Metallica and Helloween for me. Well, Nightwish, if you count it as metal.

Yeah, I love metal. Don't have any favorite subgenre under metal anymore, but can listen to most of them. If the music is good, then the music is good, regardless of subgenre. I've gotten somewhat tired of standard power metal, though. I really like different subgenres with folk influences.
Blind Guardian is by far my favourite band, and have been that for a while.
Other bands I like:
Norwegian bands:
Myrkgrav
Einherjer
Circus Maximus
Trollfest

Other bands:
Ensiferum
Týr
Candlemass
Korpiklaani
Turisas
Symphony X
Vintersorg
Iron Maiden
Epica

And this is just a short list. I could have written a quite long list of bands I like, and bands that I haven't heard much of, but that I've liked what I've heard of so far.

I’m far from disliking metal. ;)

Messze vagyok attól, hogy utáljam a metált. ;)

I can't say I'm a metal fan but I listen to some of it occasionally, I have some Metallica songs and I like Lacuna Coil and Paradise Lost - I think they're more kinda "gothic" (I can't really tell styles apart and put labels), rather than those who scream a lot etc. :lol: I'm not really impressed by Iron Maiden for some reason...

Metal is not music. Somehow I think people who "like" this kind of "music" don't really like it. They either wanna show off or they just live in musically poor environments.

:lol: metal is more music than a lot of the crap that they try to pull of as 'music' nowadays ;)

well, true, metal musicians do have a lot greater sense of showmanship than a lot of musicians... and yes indeed... the environments in which they live are quite lacking in terms of any other great types of music besides metal ;)

I hate modern attempts to be metal that fail miserably too...
