I like the fat sound of the guitars a lot. But the drummer is honestly ruining the groove too often, by playing double bass over segments where it doesn't match the mid tempo guitar rhythms. He's cutting the groove up in little pieces more than he's letting it flow. |

Yeah, those that know nothing about metal assume it's all the same. I mean, compare black metal to power metal, or avant-garde to thrash. There's just so much diversity in there, it's silly to lump it all together. And don't forget ABM, which is completely different. And folk metal. And pagan metal. And....

Metal, overall, is definitely a hugely varied umbrella of styles and sounds. It's obvious enough on the surface, but opens up even more when you explore deeper.
I'm not sure if I agree with power metal being all the same or not. There's too many bands where I'm not sure what box to sort them in. |

Generally, I agree. The reason I have it the other way around with power metal is that I suspect the few such bands I like are highly unusual for the genre and that most of it is pretty conservative. I don't think I should expect to find many more power metal bands that I'd find downright interesting.
