Korn from Bakersfield? Influenced by Buck Owens, I don't think so.  Different musical universes. Does that clear up the semantic confusion. \n\nBut Buck Owens was wonderful with the "corney" fun country music.  Country music lost another great one.  Buck is jamming with Johnny Cash as I write.....\n\nThanks Buck for all the great music and the Bakersfield Sound!

Well I wouldn't classify it as country but one of my favorite songs is called "First Glance" by Stephen Speaks.  \n\nEDIT: One that is country is by Josh Turner and it's called Angels Fall Sometimes. Listen to it here http://www.joshturner.com/pages/music.htm

There aren't many left in the heavy metal and death metal camps.  The music seems to have changed once again.  There was heavy metal; then came death metal and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal; then the hair bands came and went (pretty much).  I've listened to it all from Sabbath, Zeppelin and Priest; to Leppard; Saxon; and punk - Black Flag; which gave us the Misfits and Danzig which gave us Metallica and Megadeth.\n\nToday, it seems to be a mixture of heavy and death metal; but sort of with a twist of the love song; take Aetryu for example.  You got your singer and your screamer and then you got Cradle Of Filth and where to put them; the closest to heavy metal these days are possibly Godsmack and Disturbed.  Also there is Avenged Sevenfold whose guitars sound a lot like Iron Maiden; but then again they were sort of punk at first.\n\nWhere does one draw the line between hard rock and metal - where would Rise Against and Bad Acid Trip fit in?  Especially compared to Cradle and Aetyru.  And what about System Of A Down?

<Death metal is a type of heavy metal music with thrash metal influences which emerged in the United States (especially Florida and California), Europe (especially the United Kingdom and Sweden) and Canada in the late 1980s and early 1990s. \n\nDeath metal has, like most subgenres of heavy metal, proven notoriously difficult to define. Some fans and musicians have a firm concept of the genre, its categories and subcategories. Others consider such categorisation limiting or useless. There is often crossover from one metal genre to another, and the influence of non-metal genres is not uncommon. \n\nDeath metal is usually identified by extreme brutality, intensity and speed. "Blast beats" are frequently used to add to the intensity of the music. The vocals - death grunts, (guttural roars) or "growls", as they are often called, are rough and often incomprehensible (sometimes derisively called "Cookie Monster vocals" by those who dislike this vocal style). Similarly, those not familiar with the genre sometimes confuse it with "death rock", which is an entirely different musical classification altogether. \n\n\n Death metal's subject matter usually deals with the darker side of society that most other musical styles avoid writing about although some bands such as Dying Fetus write mostly political lyrics. The focus on mortality along with the extreme nature of the music likely inspired the naming of this genre as "death" metal. Other bands still take their lyrical inspiration from horror movies, e.g., early Death, Cannibal Corpse, Mortician.Death metal is known for very abrupt tempo and count/time signature changes, and extremely fast and complex guitar and double bass drumwork. Most bands of this genre use downtuned and distorted guitars (usually utilising two), which play both rhythm and lead guitar parts, a downtuned, sometimes distorted bass guitar, a double bass drum set, and a vocalist who uses the death grunt vocal style. Some bands add incidental synthesizers or other instruments for effects. Of all the Metal genres Death metal is the most physically demanding of its musicians.

id have to say most extreme metal. but good ol classic rock reminds me of the days when i would go live it up. CCR reminds me of the days when id go to the beach, and take trips and being on the road.

Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, Venom, Lamb of God, Bathory,and the always fun and unpredictable Gorgoroth. Most of the Metal that comes out of Norway is pretty heavy.

yes it's simple for example the difference between speed metal and heavy metal is: \nspeed metal requires a speed drum double bass! a guitar smashing guitarist that requires speed (obviously) and fast riffs and such! so yes each and every type of metal is different that's why they are named differently! hehe \nR.I.P CHUCK SCHULDINER

I love Judas Priest.  Rob Halford is one of the best heavy metal singers out there. Glenn tipton and KK Downing are great guitarist.  I have almost all thier albums, but my farovites are Britsih steel and scream for vengeance. My favorite songs are heading out to the highway, beyond the relams of death, tubro lover, and victim of changes(the live verison). I saw them twice one with Ripper and one with Halford.  They don't get enough credit that they deserve.

I love all genres of music (most), but I especially love Metal and Du Wop. Out of your options, I think I would pick Techno, though I prefer Industrial (Rammstein). I like your name.

Tell your class that you can't put these together in a category! \nYou can't compare Pink Floyd (not phloyd) with these, and you also can't compare Queen! These are bands with different genres...\n\nBut for Black Sabbath or AC/DC, it's Black Sabbath

First of all, there is a difference between hard rock and metal. Metal is just thrashing sounds and death roars, whereas hard rock is actually understandable music. I do like hard rock, (meaning Papa Roach, Staind, Fuel, etc.) but I'm not a fan of metal.

Try the Italian band Rhapsody, or even Dream Theater. Fates Warning and Prong are pretty good too. In a more mainstream note but still awesome nevertheless, you can't go wrong with Iron Maiden and Rush.
