Pretty accurate, fun stuff!

I didn't know over half of the bands listed. Good thing they had Death and Metal Church listed (as well as the obvious ones like Slayer, Maiden, etc.).

Same thing: any bands I didn't know I just hit the middle button. Should be one for "Huh?" or "Never heard them". Annnnnyway... this will be a surprise to precisely no-one, except maybe that guy, but then he's surprised by everything!

Well, except for putting power metal MUCH lower than it should be, not too far off. I like how it gave me a tie-breaker between trad metal and thrash metal with Slayer vs. Judas Priest (SLAYER!!!)

I'd take the quiz, but half of the bands listed on the first page are unknown to me

X2. Metallica, Slayer, and some other random stuff are basically the only metal bands I listen to.

I'm listening to Judas Priest, but I only have like two albums and I'm not even done listening to the second one yet. Ahhh! I've gotten really caught up on AC/DC and Mötley Crüe lately, I should go back to buying new metal albums.

Well, this quiz makes some sense. But yeah, some of the bands were totally unfamiliar to me.

For the bands I didn't know I just marked the middle... got pretty accurate results out of it. Love doom, pretty much hate thrash.

I tried doing about the same, but I did search up a couple of the bands. Here's what I got:

Doom metal being on top is nice and all, but power metal is too low.

Surprisingly, I knew a majority of the bands. Not picky. Though I do like the more extreme styles over the melodic.

Hell yeah. Love Motley Crue. Which albums you diggin'?

Maybe you were too kind to some non-power bands you feel kinda 'meh' about.

Well, I did pick the lowest one for Dragonforce, so there's that

Yeah its a quiz that kinda relies on which bands of the genres you've heard really. Still fun though, and at least reasonably accurate! I am also a quiz nerd.

Yep.

Also, here's one focusing on general musical preferences and only well-known bands:
Which genre of metal are you?

You Scored as Power Metal

You are power metal. You like fast instruments with soaring high pitched vocals. Now stop complaining and listen to some Helloween!

80%
Classic Heavy Metal
65%
80's Metal

Thrash Metal

I'd say it's pretty accurate, but there should also be doom metal. I think It'd be right between "Classic Heavy Metal" and "80's Metal".

You Scored as Progressive Metal

You like prog metal. Opeth and Dream Theater are probably amoung your favorites. You also like all forms of older prog music too!

Opeth I will support as a wonderful band to my last breath :ar_15s:

Dream Theater, however... can suck an ass for the most part.

Granted, I've not listened to a whole lot of Opeth, but that's because I've never found enough in them to interest me to make me want to listen to more.

If you don't like this, you'll never like them. But save it for when you're in the mood for sad, it's a very sorrowful song that needs to be listened to in complete silence.



If it interests you, maybe consider checking out some of the tracks these dudes mentioned, I find googling 'best songs by' and getting an entire thread is the best way to check out bands.

Top 5 Favourite Opeth Songs - Ultimate Metal Forum

Haven't listened to any of their albums, just a few of their earlier songs, like their cover of "Helter Skelter" which I love.


Wut. This statement baffles me.

Their first two, Too Fast for Love and Shout at the Devil, are legitimately, non-ironically great albums. Two of my all time favorites and I can't recommend listening to them enough.

Here's mine and can't really argue with the results that much, but I don't know what happened to the progressive metal option?

Black metal at 75%, death and doom only other ones above 50%.

And damn there was a lot of bands on that quiz that I really dislike. Felt like I was putting 2s for everything..

Sort of accurate but not really. "Doom Metal and Related" really should be in first or second place for me. I think the survey was thrown off by the fact that I don't really like traditional doom despite loving more modern doom.

Fine with Power Metal being last.

No, you're not. You're irate, infuriated.
