Hello everyone!
I actually made an account 2 months ago, but most of my early posts were pretty corny and lame, so might as well start all fresh.

I'm 18yo high schooler from Poland. Started listening to the metal music around 2 years ago, and have been completely absorbed since.
Before I used to listen mostly to some hardcore punk (Misfits and Black Flag), psychedelic rock (early Pink Floyd, Cream and The Doors),
manly synthpop (a-ha, Depeche Mode, Tame Impala) and some daddy rock like Queen, Scorpions and Dire Straits. I also tried to get
into hip-hop, but I still don't have my own taste in it, most of the rappers I listen are highly acclaimed like Kanye, OutKast
Death Grips or Ka.

My favorite metal genre is death metal, both old school bands like Asphyx, Bolt Thrower, Immolation, Autopsy, early Therion, and
new faces like Horrendous, Blood Incantation, Imperial Triumphant and many more. For a more specific sound I always
liked the mixture of Heavy metal, US power metal and Progressive metal from late 80's : bands like Fates Warning, Queensryche and more
underrated and overlooked names like Heir Apparent, Titan Force, Adramelch, Lethal. I also like Funeral Doom (and doom in general),
Thrash (although I'm very picky) and atmospheric/pagan black metal.

One of the main reason why I made an account is because I want to practice my writting, and hopefully develop a style that is both
constructive and enjoyable to read. Never really used to share my thoughts about music on paper before, so it all reads pretty sloppy.
I also want to be a counterweight to many users that have over 9.00 in their average votes, and seem to think everything is a masterpiece
without really knowing why. Some different perspective on albums and bands.

Think that's all I wanted to say, hope we'll all get along and that we'll be able to disagree from time to time in the most polite way possible.
Cheers.

Hello everyone!

Hi nice introduction, I'm relatively new myself, you have an intresting variety of music taste

Hello everyone!

After about two years of lurking, I finally decided to register because I want to vote at the next Metal Storm Awards.
Oh, and now I can see more of the Shoutbox. It‘s been interesting to read just the odd snippets of conversation, and I‘ve considered it as a potential oracle ever since someone recommended Acathexis in response to a request for a nice dirty BM album to listen to. This opened a new world for me.
Thank you.

Hello!

Age: 34
Sex: Male
Location: Finland

I've been listening metal around age of 10-13, starting with big brother's Metallica tapes. There it developed pretty quickly to more extreme genres. I heard Deicide somewhere aged 13.

I mostly listen black and death metal in various forms. I've listened pretty much every form of metal that's possible, but at this point age and cynisism is taking over so these days I mainly focus on the most barbaric extreme metal forms there is. I think Archgoat is my current favorite band overall at the moment.

I have a family, but I'm a lone wolf in metal world. Listening to music by myself and see concerts alone aswell. I'm here to share my interests and to communicate with other metalheads if possible.
