Default What is is about Metal that doesn't appeal to you, and can we change your mind?
There are so many subgenres of Metal, it may be that someone doesn't like (for instance) the aggression in Metal, but doesn't know about bands like Draconian or Sigh, or that they hate growled vocals (like me) but is unaware that not all metal singers do that.

So, if you hate or dislike Metal, why? And let us try to change your mind and show you a better way. My son. Or daughter.

Actually, Sigh is very aggressive a lot of the time. Depends on the song and the section of that song. They tend to interweave Black Metal with progressive rock,psychedelia, jazz, classical and any number of musical genres. They still retain a black metal base however.

Metals not for everyone and personally I like it that way.

I think that's a bit of a stereotype. Not all metal is like that.
