Any Skyline owners metal heads?

Hey, a music forum page here, cool!

I am thinking that surely some Skyline heads who like their cars with speed, power, and grunt, who would like their music the same way? The two go well together. Try listening to some ripping speed / thrash / death metal while ripping up the road in a speed machine, Hehehe, what a blast.

Been into metal since my good ol' high school days (and I'm pushing 50 now, how some things never change) , and listen to it all (well, most of it all, as there's some stuff that some people call metal, which I do not) from classic metal, to power metal (I'm talking real power, not the flowery false stuff) , speed / thrash, and death metal. Will be good to see some other metal heads here. I'll post some play lists soon. Won't be light reading though, Hehehe.

Yeah there's a few of us around! Have seen the odd thread here and there over the years on sau

Classic metal is good......some newer stuff I can handle, but not into throat cancer candidates......probably cos its outside my 'era'.

Black Sabbath, Pantera, Tool, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Buffalo etc etc.....Not a Metallica fan cos of Napster

Post up some tracks!

i grew up in the era of Korn, Metalica, Sunk lotto, Deftones, tool ect.

 

im still a big fan of ausy metal. was listening to Caulfield this morning on Spotify. quite good.

Dead letter circus is less heavy but so good.

Architects are another recent fave

Hahaha definitely metal head. Not heaps of old stuff but can't ever go wrong with Metallica, slayer, megadeath. best part about metal is it's real music not audio tune vocals or anything. Love new metal above all, parkway drive, the amity affliction, Thy Art Is Murder, The ghost inside. My list is endless.

funny this should come up. My vinyls of DRI- Crossover, Slayer - Reign in Blood and Sepultura - Beneath the Remains have gotten a few plays lately.

I can't hate Metallica, even with the Napster thing. The way I see it, they lost that war and someone else was eventually going to kick up a legal fuss, if not them. Was pretty much Lars' doing anyway.

Having seen them live in the last few years, wow...to be playing the same music at that age and still be belting it out with the energy of 20 somethings doing their first gig...so impressed. They get played daily in our household.

I think Korn counts as nu metal, but I love listening to them and others (Slipknot etc.) before a weights session at the gym.

[Weaselman]

I like both Metallica and Korns new albums.

im a wrx owner.. does that count?

Older I get, the heavier the music.

Have very much been enjoying parkway drive.

And very recently,  sailing before the wind.

Check out misguided sunrise by them.

The older I get the more mellow my music has become 

I grew up listening to 70's and 80's punk and heavy metal, nowadays it's to pointlessly angry

Now, I'm more classical music, hell, me and the Mrs go to the Opera house now 

I do on occasion listen to some old punk stuff, but it is rare

[GTSBoy]

I still regularly listen to Iggy & The Stooges, all the original British metal bands from the 70s (and bleeding into the 80s), Metallica (even though Lars is a bit of a dick), Tool (which is only "metal" because some of it has distortion - it is otherwise obviously everything but metal), most other proper prog rock stuff (my daughter is still trying to steal my Rush t-shirt for wearing to gigs), and so on.

But pretty much all speed metal, thrash, nu-metal, anything with gargoyle growling, can go eat a bowl of dicks.

I am also starting to listen to more classical stuff.

Orchestral, piano, violins.

Heard an Aussie opera track on ABC classical yesterday I liked randomly scrolling through stations.

I'm liking the stuff you listed in your last paragraph more these days.

Personal taste and all that.

Still like metallica,  but agree, Lars is a dick.

And tool is still awesome, but I wasn't as big a fan of their latest album compared to their previous work.

It's less aggressive, but definitely far more complicated. It's really driven by Danny, Adam and Justin pursuing their musical ideas even further out than before. It's actually better listened to at fairly low volume levels. Fear Inoculum itself is great track to listen to in the dark.

I get that, it's just personal preference. 

I felt it was more melodic.

And didn't overly like chocolate chip trip which most have about.
