* THRASH METAL
The protagonist arrives, fights the dragon, saves the princess and fucks her.

* HEAVY METAL
The protagonist arrives on a Harley, kills the dragon, drinks a few beers and fucks the princess.

* FOLK METAL
The protagonist arrives with some friends playing accordions, violins, flutes and many more weird instruments, the dragon falls asleep (because of all the dancing). Then all leave........ without the princess.

* VIKING METAL
The protagonist arrives in a ship, kills the dragon with his mighty axe, skins the dragon and eats it, rapes the princess to death, steals her belongings and burns the castle before leaving.

* DEATH METAL
The protagonist arrives, kills the dragon, fucks the princess and kills her, then leaves.

* BLACK METAL
The protagonist IS the dragon, dwells in the heart of the night with in a castle full of hellhounds and eternal flames. He kills the sassy knight, fucks the noble steed and sacrifices the princess to Satan.

* GORE METAL
The protagonist arrives, kills the dragon and spreads his guts in front of the castle, fucks the princess and kills her. Then he fucks the dead body again, slashes her belly and eats her guts. Then he fucks the carcass for the third time, burns the corpse and fucks it for the last time.

* DOOM METAL
The protagonist arrives, sees the size of the dragon and thinks he could never beat him, then he gets depressed and commits suicide. The dragon eats his body and the princess as dessert. That's the end of the sad story.

* PROGRESSIVE METAL
The protagonist arrives with a guitar and plays a solo of 26 minutes. The dragon kills himself out of boredom. The protagonist arrives to the princess' bedroom, plays another solo with all the techniques and tunes he learned in the last year of the conservatory. The princess escapes looking for the 'HEAVY METAL' protagonist.

* GLAM METAL
The protagonist arrives, the dragon laughs at the guy's appearance and lets him enter. He steals the princess' make up and tries to paint the castle in a beautiful pink colour.

* NU METAL
The protagonist arrives in a run down Honda Civic and attempts to fight the dragon but he burns to death when his moronic baggy clothes catch fire.

* HARDCORE/METALCORE/ ?
The protagonist screams his lungs out, slays the dragon with a combination of violant moves and powerfull slowmotion action, growling some stuff that doesn't make any sense, rushes to the princess and takes the time for a few beautifull notes and lets his bassplayer sing some clean emotional stuff that move the princess deeply ... they fuck her and proceed to the next castle.



Im pretty sure the dragon would kill and eat the metalcore people with no problem.

It is very easy to recognize black metal genre...just look for the band videos, if you find crappy silly unedited with stupid make up, that's black metal. i really love listen this genre not watching it.

Riffs are thrash-death, there are growls and a female clean voice which I find irrelevant to identifying the genre. I'd say thrash/death (mostly thrash).

I'd say a mix of thrash and heavy metal. If there's anything death metal about this it's incredibly watered-down, light-hearted, and altogether lacking any kind of intensity.

A NEW CHALLENGER APPROACHES!

Metalcore:

The protagonist is the 13 year old, flawless straightened hair which has been dyed black covering his eyes, BMTH shirt, skinny jeans, and neon colored shoe, scene kid(hero). Not only does he fail to kill the dragon due to being nearly immobile from girl pants, he is also entirely blind from his hair and screaming lyrics about girls being sluts and fucking guys over fails to amuse the dragon nor enthrall the princess. He is promptly eaten and goes to scene kid hell which involves the never ending play of Never Gonna Give You Up.

Nothing like in my post. It seems in this thread one was to just take the stereotypes of various metal genres so I put in my own joke on Metalcore.

I do, infact, enjoy the genre when it is performed by certain bands ^^

Because it was created four years ago and is at least related to metal.

I suppose, but it's the most train-wrecked thread I think I've seen )That's made it past a page, anyway)

You guys are probably too big to come to Kingston, Ontario - but if you happen to somehow make it up here, I'd be glad to watch you guys shred a few chords in the wine cellar at the Mansion downtown.

The closest you'd probably ever get to that is a gig in Toronto or Ottawa though... Far too many people in the audience for my liking.

This never gets old. I saw one version for Christian metal, where the knight gets to the castle, kills the dragon in the name of God, but doesn't have sex with the hot babe because "it isn't right" . . . .

Shouldn't the Christian metal one go like this " The protagonist marches around the castle 7 times, slays the dragon in the name of god and sends it to hell, marries the maiden and then fucks the living daylight out of her"
