American Metal vs European Metal (metallica, Queen, bands)

Levithan · 11-20-2005, 07:10 AM

I love both, there is no denying the talents of bands like Pantera, Metallica, Megadeth, Chimeria etc etc. But unfortunutly American metal has a tendancy (in my opinion!!) to go a bit too melodic, which is fine, but I prefer my metal to be long, hard and heavy as ****...Having said that Usurper and Lamb of God are exeptions to that rule. I agree with Kempson, Children of Bodom are very talented, but listen to Decapitated, especially their early stuff. Their first album was done when they were in their teens, the drummer was like 12 or 13!
