Actually, I wish I knew who to dish it out to in particular cause their influence has gone way over the top.Heavy Metal used to mean stuff like Black Sabbath, Metallica and Iron Maiden. Don't get me wrong, today we have some great bands like Disturbed, Godsmack, Shinedown and many many others. But the whole "Metal" label has been skewed somewhere along the line. Now it seems that there has to be wild guitar leads at lightning speed that make no musical sense, none the less create any sort of melody. And the vocal slot has been opened up to anybody that can scream and/or growl.Hey, I love the old Sepultura, which is the root of this new genre. I respect the style. But somewhere we really need to insist that these styles be more effectively labeled. There is grunge metal, and grind core, and gore and lord knows what else. At least the whole Rap thing knew better than to try and side with funk or soul music. Seems to me all this scream metal is just the white boy's answer to the Rap thing.As I cruise MySpace looking for good "Metal" or "Hard Rock" I continue to encounter these kinds of screamo thrash attack bands. First of all, if you like that stuff. I have nothing against you or your music. I simply think it needs to be reclassified. Alternative Metal would work for me. Anything as long as we draw some clear lines. No matter how I cross reference on MySpace it takes forever to find just one true metal band. And maybe that's really the point of it all. Something new and unique...
