OH: Yeah so the Beatles are a metal band now? They influenced it obviously so we should be inclusive of them. Talk about indefensible....

The Handel and Wagner thing. They do help you understand metal better. However, drawing the line on where we define genres...
Just listen to DP and Zep and use a little horse sense. Either you understand that this is a clear point of origin or perhaps, unbelievably to me, you can listen to those bands and not get it. If you can't hear the clear demarcation and get why it's different than the Beatles or Handel intuitively well... keep listening. Maybe you'll get it, maybe you won't.
