Certainly not a bad selection of bands either. I'm glad you finally got into Integrity. In my eyes they've created some of the best metalcore/hardcore/... from the 90's.

I used to listen to a bit of the mainstream kind of metalcore years ago, but have avoided the genre ever since. I've been surprised at just how superior a genre it is under the surface. I'd say that by the late nineties it was probably tied with black metal as the most quality metal genre out there. Death metal was spent, thrash had been dead, doom was always too low key to really have a driving movement past a few isolated bands, I love power metal but as a genre it's always been as much about being stuck in the past as evolving into something new, and... yeah. Too bad about what happened to metalcore in the '00s though...

I've since long stopped pondering on which metal genre was most popular during which decade. It seems quite useless to me to do so as quality metal has been and will be made each year in a broad spectrum of genres. It's true that at the start of the new millenium metalcore set course to a rather...awful destination, but we shouldn't forget about the quality metalcore still being made today just because there's a 'lesser' version of it out there.

If I exclude all metal bands and classical composers, which I will since fatigue tends to drain the capability of excessive typing, this would be rough sketch of favorite bands/artists: Swans, Kraftwerk, White Suns, Pink Floyd, SQÜRL, Portishead, Sleep Party People, Cocteau Twins, Sonic Youth, The Jesus Lizard, Fleetwood Mac, Kashiwa Daisuke, DNA, Skinny Puppy, etc.
I like this person.

Oh yeah, I forgot your music taste ruled. Care to list some of your metal favs? And how the **** are you supposed to listen to DNA? I've listened to them a number of times over the last few years, and have slowly gone from hating them to tolerating/kind of liking them depending on my mood.

It's all about the energy and Arto Lindsay's Derek Bailey-punk guitar work.
