Being Metal sounds really exclusive. I feel oddly honored that my fish is metal.

Also, Chris, what to you are the virtues of a metal life. And are they unique to persons who rock to metal or can other people have them?

Hahah! Metal fish! Yeeeaaah! I found a [url="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00005Q5GH.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg"]Metal Fish[/url]. The funny thing is that I collect these for my boyfriend. I joke that its my collection, but I just store it at his place (he's an avid fisherman). Now I just have to perfect my tuna jello salad desert.

Now, I just need to get a whole collection of [url="http://www.i-mockery.com/metal/products.php"]metal home decor.[/url]

Ok, I have heard of one band on this list (Haste the Day)...Now I know I'm not just getting old...I AM old!!!

My 2 cents...Metallica, of course! I'm an old school Metallica fan...Black is my favorite album. And who could forget about AC/DC, Faith No More, Alice Cooper, Led Zepplen, Jimi Hendrix, Kiss, Dream Theatre...? HA! ok, I must be showing my age.

As for newer bands...although I probably shouldn't listen to them, but System of the Down has made me head bang a few times over. I have only heard their radio releases as my husband doesn't like them at all due to some of their lyrics. P.O.D., Shine Down are a couple others.

I'm Catholic and I like mostly progressive metal (Dream Theater, Opeth, Pain of Salvation, Fates Warning) and other progressive rock (Spock's Beard, Rush, Yes, The Flower Kings, Porcupine Tree, Neal Morse). I also like Christian bands/singers like Jars of Clay, Caedmon's Call, Chris Rice, and Andrew Peterson. peace.

most people wounder consider AC/DC, Faith No More, Alice Cooper, Led Zepplen, Jimi Hendrix, Kiss, metal at all. i would think of them as metal when they played in late 60's 70's since there was nothing else like them around.

[quote name='Dreamweaver' date='Sep 20 2005, 10:12 PM']Who died and made Chris the "King of Metal"(tm)?

Yeah, I like metal, but I lean more towards the older, power and progressive stuff. Maiden, Dream Theater, Rhapsody, Blind Guardian, Stratovarious, Sonata Arctica, Judas Priest, Dio, yamma yamma yamma.
