Metal Died With Dimebag (blues, genre, album, Linkin Park, cover)

I kept waiting and waiting for it bounce back but, in my opinion, it just never did. Not that there aren't good metal bands out there right now... But, honestly, when is the last time ANYTHING truly great and original came out in the metal genre?

I guess part of it is my age and part of it is my preference for blues-based music (which doesn't seem to be "in" right now), but I just yawn every time I hear new "heavy" music.

The # 1 metal album on Amazon.com right now is from a bunch of cartoon characters called "Dethklok". (sigh)
