I don't care what YOU think because the MAJORITY thinks you are wrong. the majority of people are religious arguments from majority mean nothing to me, and i refuse to blindly follow majority Metal is something more easily described through the music, but a band like Infest is all about speed, violence, anger, hatred, sloppiness, and politically charged lyrics. you... you mean like tool? Metal is not politically charge most of the time, or if it is it's more subdued. Metal was about creating a thematic idea akin to Horror films and high fantasy. Black Sabbath's self titled song is more or less a horror movie in song form. It is not meant to be fast, angry, or anything. It's just slow, heavy, and evil sounding. Incantation is taking what Black Sabbath did and putting a shitload more distortion on it, using a different vocal style, and making it slightly faster in some places. Incantation is the same idea but more advanced in its development. so why cant tool be just another one of those subversions of metal Tool does not straddle the line, it simply is NOT Metal. Their themes, composition, vocals, instrumentation, etc. do not fit with the Metal framework. thats all you're doing is saying that they don't but i see it very plainly

when i'm thinking about what kind of music i like, time signatures are the last thing that i think about Not exactly the same. it is to me... the guitars are louder and faster and the vocalist is growling that doesn't make any real difference to me... it's just heavier metal

I know for a fact that he occasionally listens to Iron Maiden yeah, and i can't distinguish it aesthetically from any of the music you posted the fact that they all use different technical stuff--like, what does that have to do with genre i thought it was ALL about how it sounded, not the composition

Tool is not Metal they all sound like metal to me you keep talking about what doesn't make metal, but that doesn't help me understand what DOES make metal because even the "punk" example you gave sounds e x a c t l y like what i thought metal was

Not particularly liking Metal does not mean I don't know what metal is either way. you should still be able to give me ONE name, if you know what it is

And I don't really listen to Metal, not like on purpose. I just don't really know any bands I really like that are metal.

i am curious, though
if tool isn't metal, what the fuck is?
Just progressive rock.

even if i cared about genres,
Well, sadly to say the world doesn't revolve around what you give a shit about.
lovely irony the world doesn't revolve around your shitty perception of music, either if someone called tool "metal" literally only you would care.

You shouldn't just not like something because of a genre it is even if i cared about genres, this is just stupid if i dislike everything about what makes up a particular genre i could say with confidence that i hate the entire genre i do this with video games, not music, but still

I don't think in genres. Because I think that's fucking idiotic. Music is music. I don't care WHAT it is, as long as it sounds good. It also helps to have an intelligent message, but that has little to do with genre. Genre's should not affect what you like, but are a great way to sorta make guesses as to what you would like or wouldn't. "Genres shouldn't affect what you like, but they should affect what you like." k

Nope. Never did.
Tool is more metal than NIN either way, so... Piss poor comparison.

The only people who call it metal are innate morons who would try to classify anything as metal to seem like metal heads. i mean goddammit, this line pissed me the fuck off No, I really don't think that's what anyone is trying to do. Yeah, because so many people care to "seem like metalheads", enough to "mislabel" other bands to "SEEM" like metalheads. OOOH, the horror. No, he probably just legitimately thought it was metal. To be honest, I thought it was metal too. To me, metal means... heavy guitars, abrasive sound, defiant lyrics, and intense, often shouted vocals. that sort of thing. all of which tool has in a lot of their songs. it's easy to confuse it with metal, and because of your sententious shitheadery, I just learned the news that, hey, Tool's not metal. Apparently. Because some guy on the Internet says so. kk bud maybe you'll realize that genres don't matter, at all and i don't care to be called a "metalhead" either

By what? Fucking Wikipedia? Guess what? Wikipedia is shit at Genre classifying. It's not metal. Tool even cringes as being called metal. The only people who call it metal are innate morons who would try to classify anything as metal to seem like metal heads. holy cunt You know, it's really fucking stupid to try to browbeat someone over getting a who-gives-a-cunt little piece of minutiae wrong and have the audacity not to even CORRECT them in the process. "ARGH YOU'RE WRONG FUCK YOU FOR BEING WRONG YOU'RE AN INNATE MORON I'M SUCH A MUSIC NERD THAT I GIVE A SHIT ABOUT SEMANTICS LIKE THIS" "I WON'T TELL YOU WHAT THE ACTUAL GENRE IS, BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE TOO PRODUCTIVE AND USEFUL" fuck

all of my finals were just like, five page essays :/
kind of a joke of a first semester
Get a real major then.
That would imply that there's anything else in the world that interests me enough that I want to get a job that involves it for the rest of my life. What an asinine implication. Try saying something smart next time.
