I used to like that kind of music, but the growling and repetitive death and evil cliches got pretty old. Musically some bands are pretty decent, and you can tell there are alot of metalheads out there that pay attention to the music than some other genres. If they don't get caught up in the over-technicality of it. My idea is, if it's good music then I'll listen to it and I like a variety of music. Black metal, eh? Early CoF was ok but now they suck arse! BTW I think Rob Zombie is pretty cool man, even musically. White zombie was kick ass, his new stuff ok but alittle to dance-metal to say his breaking apart was a step ahead.

My biggest disappointment in music is when one band does something truly original, whether metal or whatever, a thousand other bands do the samething destroying the creativity and individuality of that music.
