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

Yeah, I've heard of them.  I really like them.  I like a version of Metallica's Unforgiven that they do the best.  I'm not sure what their true genre is.  They are in a rare class of their own.  Maybe classical metal?  :)

that's probably a hard  question cos sometimes people can class music as both genres. such as emo punk. it depends on what you class it as. i love bands like the used, yellowcard, taking back sunday and heaps more. my favourite band though is fall out boy. i am more of a fan of music which is classed as both genres such as emo punk.

Internet radio, if you've got the bandwidth for it.\n\nThere are so many flavors of metal stations available.  Do you like classic, industrial, progressive, melodic, heavy, speed, ...?\nKnowing what styles you like most will really help answer your question.\n\nIf you're not sure what you want, even a generic search turns up a number of options to consider:  http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Internet+radio%22+metal

Some stuff you will look through and you'll be like. OH YEAH.. I remember that! That was the Shhhhhhh it back in the day.\nRap:\nSnoopdogg, NWA, Getto Boys, Scarface\nRock:\nSystem of a down, Alice in chains, Metallica?

It really hurts my feelings that people don't realise that Queens of the Stone Age, Korn, ACDC and Disturbed aren't metal. \n\nSeriously, go buy a copy of heavy metal 101 and educate yourselves on what the genre really is...\n\nPantera,40 Below Summer, Cradle of Filth, Metallica, Slipknot, Illdisposed, the Haunted, DemonHunter, Machine Head, Pantera, Slayer, Cryptopsy, Soulfly, just to name a few...

Good way to find out.. go to ishkurs guide to electronic music..  http://www.di.fm/edmguide/edmguide.html you can choose from house, trance, breaks, blah blah blah and you will then get branches of subgenres from each genre.  he explains each type of music and gives you samples of songs from each genre to listen to.  house is my favorite...

It kinda depends on what kind of music you like.  More often then not, you can get a good amount of info by the type of music the band plays.  And sometimes you can just type the bands' name that you are interested in and do a search to give you such info.  You can also get good info in magazines.
