The art in metal is that it totally subverts what's accepted as normal popular music. Do I really have to explain that? By nature, it's politically incorrect, and challenges the pop culture of what's accepted. For instance, "Brown Sugar" was ballsiey then, and it's still ballsiey today. In fact, no radio station will play it. On the other hand, "Elenear Rigby" can be heard in super-markets and dentist offices because it's soothing and harmless. At any rate, I'm always willing to expand my horizon, excluding RadioHead, because I know your blowing them out, and Oasis, whom I deplore, lay some music that's directly descends from the Beatles pop culture on all of us.
