You're calling them horrible musicians for having liberal politics and being associated with the hippie movement? Which influenced a lot of the best rock music ever? How does that equate to them making hippie music? Crass makes hippie music? Are you f*cking kidding me? Is this a joke account?

Given that Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, Lamb of God, Mastodon and Tool for example are among the best in their respected genres and Angela Gossow is one hell of a singer from Arch Enemy, tell me what do you consider to be good metal?

At the Gates and Carcass both put out far better melodic death metal albums than anything produced by Dark Tranquility or In Flames. I'm assuming you're putting Tool and Mastodon in the "progressive metal" genre, a genre better represented by Demilich. Regarding Lamb of God, I'm not generally fond of groove metal, but Exhorder are superior to them.

Slaughter of the Soul by At the Gates is probably the best album in the genre (just) but thats not to say that both Dark Tranquillity or In Flames are inferior groups music wise. I don`t think Tool or Mastodon sound too much like each other at all, as Mastodon have distinctly southern rock/metal influences and Tool don`t. Demilich are a rather obscure Finnish death metal outfit with good technical abilities more than a progressive one. Amorphis would have been a better comparison if you wanted to use a more Finnish prog metal outfit. Exhorder were early purveyors of the groove sound, but Pantera quickly took their candle and are THE GROOVE METAL band. Lamb of God carry on that tradition in a pretty impressive way, you can also add in Meshuggah here, who play with great grooves albeit in a more complex and experimental manner.

I`m not a huge fan of garage rock but I think the guitar lines and vocals of Jack White to be pretty amazing and make the albums "White Blood Cells" and "Elephant" to be two of the best albums of the current millenium. Elephant is impressive from its use of both blues and folk influences to stunning effect.
