Any Metal Music Fans Out There?

When I lived in Tampa, FL. Metallica was playing at the state fair grounds on the outdoor stage. I lived about 5 miles from there. This is no lie, when they started playing For Whom The Bell Tolls, we could here them playing in my front yard! They were that loud. We drove to the fair grounds and there were cars lined up and down I4 interstate and state road 301, with people listening/watching them play. That's the only time I saw Metallica play and I didn't have to pay for it.
Protest The Hero just released another album, its really good, but I like their earlier stuff more. Very underrated band.
METAL IS ALL I WILL EVER LISTEN TO.
I grew up on Judas,Megadeth,Pan(*ucking)tera.
Now all I listen to is the likes of Obituary,Asphyx,
Jungle Rot, early Six Feet Under. I need a little goove.
Thank God for pay music radio is horrible.
I can still hear my mother telling me ,"Richard you have no taste in music "a long time ago.
Soon I will be fifty nine.

Big metal fan.
I listen to and buy a lot of different stuff from bluegrass to classical.
But no K-pop. If I ever find myself listening or paying attention to k-poop its self administered frontal lobotomy time.

It's 100X better than country music! At least you won't get your ex wife back and learn to dip Skoal! Oh, and an endless supply of cinder blocks to put your dead 4X4's on in your front yard!

In 1997 I was in college near Philadelphia, Metallica played a free concert in the parking lot of what's now the Wells Fargo Center, announced only a week prior. My little brother and a friend skipped high school and came up from MD, we rode the subway down with thousands of metal heads. It was great, they played mostly obscure stuff and covers. I remember going crazy for Am I Evil? and Master of Puppets. Seen them several times since but that was special.

Excellent thread!! I've developed a mild obsession with this band Periphery. I think it's technically filed under the djent genre, but this guy's vocals are intoxicating! The Omega album is worth listening to straight through.
I've enjoyed listening to the shared videos (several I've not heard).
Cheers!

This song always reminds me of the Buick GNX.

Interesting track. In a few spots it reminded me of Faith no More as well as Linkin Park, but then it turned darker.
Thanks for sharing.

I saw Metallica in Toronto quite a few years ago now. Unfortunately, I did not have great seats and so while the show was amazing, it wasn't that incredibly intimate experience that one likes to have.
I've seen: k0rn, Rammstein, Disturbed, Metallica, Five Finger Death Punch and of course all the obscure openers for each.
Amusingly, when I saw Five Finger Death Punch, which was at the Sound Academy (the Docks) in Toronto, they were the opening band for k0rn. Pretty sure I've told this story on here before, but most of us were there for 5FDP, not k0rn. I had already seen them, years earlier, on the "Got the Life" tour and I, at the time of the 5FDP concert, considered them in decline. They'd produced no notable new material and the show seemed like they were just going through the motions.
My friends and I were like 4th row. The Sound Academy is kinda like a big school gymnasium skirted with bars with seating at the back. It's the ultimate intimate venue and we were extremely close to the stage, which was only a few feet above the floor.
It was incredible. Best concert I've ever been to. The energy, the authenticity, it was electric.
Half the audience left after 5FDP finished, didn't even wait to see k0rn, they had seen what they came for.
Not great audio, but this was the show, we'd be in the left quadrant there just below the sculpted speaker assembly:
