Dimebag was certainly not the "last" true metal artist (I never said that, did I?)... Guys like Iommi, Kerry King, Zakk Wylde are still the gods that they always were. I was speaking about the genre in general. Dimebag being martyred on stage was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

... That, and Ozzy doing a Pepsi commercial with Donnie and Marie Osmond.

(Yawn)
Sure.
Like I said, there are good bands (Hatebreed comes to mind). I just think it's fading away. Every time I hear kids talk about Linkin Park, Avenged Sevenfold, or (God help us all) Finger Eleven as being "Heavy Metal" - I just get more discouraged.

Dethklok is the #1 metal band on Amazon.com. They are a cartoon group on Adult Swim which is a late night series on Cartoon Network (See my original post).

Apparently this is the future of heavy metal.

...

On a another note, why not list a few 2006-2007 album releases that you think equal the likes of.... Let's say, Metallica's "...And Justice For All", Slayer's "Reign In Blood", Pantera's "Vulgar Display of Power", or Black Sabbath's "Paranoid"?

Or, list albums coming out this year that you think MIGHT turn things around for the genre??

(crickets chirping)

Seriously, though, I happen to love this music and I HOPE you can give me a list a mile long.
