The Metal Education Thread (lyric, singer, bass, punk, rock)

^ Rush are a great band but they definitely aren't metal. I'd class them as progressive rock.

And in my opinion Sabbath sound more hard rock than metal, although they were part of the new wave of british heavy metal

I bought a book when I was a kid called 'The Encycopedia of Heavy Metal' written by Mick Wall at Kerrang. Rush were in that.

I think Wikopedia has a nice article on Iron Maiden. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Maiden_(band)

I like what I have heard from Samson "Riding with the Angels" is a jam.

You've got a point there. Charlotte the Harlot is a cool song - it does have a bit of a punk sound. That could possibly be because Dave Murray wrote that song by himself. Steve Harris wrote most of the other ones.

Ah Nu-Metal doesn't belong on this thread, its a 'metal' thread, therefore nu-metal should not be included.
