| | The History of Heavy Metal |
 | | Heavy metal, a genre of rock music that was hugely popular in the United States and much of the world during the 1980s, not only left an influence on successive trends in rock music, but affected the cultural tastes and style of its many fans. |  | | Bands who toned down their anger, and the volume on their guitars, came to be referred to as "glam metal" or "pretty metal." Groups such as Bon Jovi, Warrant, and Poison sold albums on their hairsprayed, long locks and sexually risque lyrics. |  | | The heavy metal sound was characterized by loud and distorted guitars and vocals; its image by aggressive male posturing and a preoccupation with sexuality, identity, and the corrosion of traditional social institutions. |

 | | Beside that, their music is utter garbage, and even if they started the "Black Metal" label, their pathetic music has little to do with the genre. |  | | Nu Metal, Gothenburg Metal, Guttural Metal, Grotesque Metal, Goth Metal, Chicken Metal, Aryan Metal, NS Metal, and Rap Metal. |  | | First, the d*ckless vocals; second, the fact that every band sounds just like every other band; and third, the generic fantasy themes are silly and predictable. |

| | Heavy Metal Resource Interviews - Kick Axe's Larry Gillstrom |
 | | I became a big fan of the band back in the days of larger than life stage shows and music. |  | | I had actually wanted to get with the band around the time of the reissues a few years back, but was happy to take it when it presented itself. |  | | We don't do alot of harmony work like 2 guitar players do in bands, we always try to showcase each other and be 2 distinct individuals and I think that is pretty much the same on 'IV' as it was on the first 2 albums. |

 | | The bands and their releases (that I have/know of) are: |  | | North is a band that releases quality, if not ground breaking music, their release Thorns on the Black Rose is particularly worth getting, as is their split album with Sacrilegium. |  | | It can't be disputed that many of the bands I look unfavourably on have high technical abilities, but unfortunately I feel their music is devoid of emotion and very boring because of this generic, derivative sound. |
