Say you have $100. A small cheeseburger at McDonald's costs $2, but a premium steak at the restaurant right next to it costs $100, and there is a queue. What do you choose? Do you choose low-quality mass-produced junk food just because it's easy, cheap and everyone else does it, or the less "accessible" and expensive, but still tasty steak approved by people who know their stuff? Decide for yourself what you think the burger is. And by the way, I think most people, of most ages, can admit to enjoying burgers on occasion.

I like to think a lot of people have one or two "guilty pleasure bands." I have more than that, but the three that come to mind right away are Attack Attack, Black Veil Brides, and A Day To Remember. (I've actually been convinced for the longest time if everyone got their heads out of their asses they would realized that BVB actually has some talent musicians. I mean Alice Cooper called them the best modern hard rock act. ALICE ****ING COOPER) |

I understand why some metalcore, like BMTH and Attack Attack are hated but then again there is heavy metal like this Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills - YouTube Van Halen - Jump (HQ music video) - YouTube Ok, it's not as bad as Attack Attack but isn't that far away either. They just look, sound and move ridiculous. And that's actually "respected" "heavy" metal. There is Nu Metal heavier than that and I(and most people for that matter) wouldn't even classify Nu Metal as metal. |

I find it interesting you chose the one Van Halen song that was totally different to everything they'd done before it and not really about what they were about at the time.
This is what Van Halen were about...

Who's bashing anyone? I'm bashing music that I don't like. This being MusicBanter I imagine that that is encouraged.

Aaaand... This. You probably have heard it before, but I think it represents heavy metal pretty well.
