What is so attractive about Heavy Metal music?

metallibloke, I'm not trying to convert anyone, I'm trying to convert myself. A bunch of my friends like Metal and I'm trying to find reason as to why I should like it other than the fact that they do.

Just downloaded some Therion and Tristania. Not too bad.

Apologies, I never meant to imply you were converting other people! Probably the best reason to like something is &quot;I just do&quot;.

Slipknot
Mudvayne
Type O negative


I'm just wondering, I don't see why screaming into a microphone is a fun thing to listen to... I admit... screaming takes talent (Try it... you'd be surprised) Anyways... It bores me after one or two songs... it's like do something different, this is getting redundant. Why do you like this heavy music? I listen to it on occasion if I'm angry and I like hearing the drummers go nuts. But it's hardly my favorite music though. Why do some people like it so much? To me it sounds like a bunch of Distorted power chords with someone screaming and a drummer going nuts.

Well you must have NEVER even listened to Type O Negative before. He does very little screaming and mostly singing.....
