Yes. Lyrics really don't matter to me much, so long as the music is good, I don't care if I can understand what is being said or not.

Not usually, no. And that's not me being some snob or something. I just haven't found music I like in another language.

I guess the simplest term would be rock. From Three Days Grace to Mute Math to Avenged Sevenfold. Not too heavy, but not too slow.

Sure, sure. Finnish, English and Japanese - the first one's a rare case, but not impossible. Other languages won't do. Definitely a no no.

Maybe you would like Rammstein...also Обійми Дощу is the best band you've never heard of...though they might be a bit to soft for you IDK...

I mostly listen to music sang in English.

Nope. I actually like to listen to lyrics. They're as important to the song as the music is to me.

When I downloaded it, the information was all wrong. :x It didn't say the artist was Обійми Дощу, or the album was Елегія. The characters were all wrong. :P

Nope, but I went through and fixed it all after it was downloaded. I love copy and paste, there's no way I'd be able to figure out how to type those characters in by hand. :lol:

Wow, this is the only thing in my collection that the Zune software hasn't recognized to find album info. :shock: I was hopeful since it found Änglagård.

Yeah, but I was sure the non english characters would throw it off. The lack of album art is bothering me, and I'm too lazy to download and apply my own...

Just go back to their site, copy it to your clipboard and paste it in...it takes all of five seconds...:P

Unless Zune does things differently then Itunes that is...

Can I ask why?

Yes, I know plenty of metal bands that sing in other languages.

And I have to, but I don't think it was any know language...Except really loud monkey nosies...

Not that all metal is bad, I've listened to Matallica and liked it before. But some of the later stuff is just....

You seem to be confusing death and black metal with 'later' metal, the vast majority of metal has clean vocals, those two sub-genres are the only ones that use it exclusively.

I don't know. I just don't encounter non-English music that I like.

It's partially because I'm more interested in the vocals of songs than most people are, so I like to be able to understand the lyrics.

I usually don't, but I have before and I'd do it again. I've been meaning to find some good Italian music, as I love that language. Back in the day I used to listen to a lot of German and Scandinavian music, but that was mostly metal and I don't listen to metal anymore.

Yeah, quite often. Focus songsmostly don'thave any lyrics, but the occasional song will be in Dutch, though mostly English as far as I'm aware, or just random nonsense. The language dosn't really bother me aslong as the music is good.

Japanese, Russian, English, French and sometimes stuff from other Euro countries.
