Deftones / Team Sleep. Because they have Chino Moreno. Close runner up would be City and Colour.BiancaDK

Burial, solo artist. I've never really been a fan of anything, but I think I'm a fan of his.-eddy-

[QUOTE="battlefront23"] That's so much better. :lol: I like it when bands actually sing about things that matter to me, not when they delve into darker spiritual realm.

I like it when bands do things like this in an attempt to be cool. It provides the lulz.

And Morbid Angel's lyrics mean much to me, considering I'm not a big fan of Christianity myself.

"Lies - And you fill their souls
With all oppressions of this world
And all the glory you receive?
So, What makes you supreme?
Lies - Your crown is falling
I offer fantasy And you, you creator are
Blind with envy"

In fact, no lyrics give me greater joy.

Try listening to some Sabbath. Or Priest. Or Maiden. Or Dio. Or Ozzy Osbourne. Or Edenbridge. Or Nightwish. Or Metallica. Or Rainbow. That's just a start, I don't feel like thinking of more :P.

"Catfish Soup"

Again and again sing this that we live,
it's all we have to go off of.
This is a nightmare come to life,
this is something you'll regret at times.
When you see there's an end tonight.
Just think about this now,
as we come to an end.
The decisions you have,
made will come back to haunt you,
and as the story ends and
you look to the sky,
this couldn't have happened by chance.
And Here's your escape as
He Calls out your name,
you fall to your knees
and answer his call.
But Here's your escape,
He calls out your name, you fall to your knees,
and answer His call.

Lord I will be anything for you.

Hallelujah,Hallelujah, saved by grace. x2

Hallelujah, I've been saved by grace,
Hallelujah, saved by grace.
and this is why, I've been saved,
by His grace.

Just think about this now,
as we come to an end.
The decisions you have,
made will come back to haunt you,
and as the story ends and
you look to the sky,
this couldn't have happened by chance.

Oh, battle, I'm sure metal is never used productively :roll:.

Oh wait, duh, what about metal protest songs!

Wicked World (Black Sabbath)

The world today is such a wicked thing
Fighting going on between the human race
People give good wishes to all their friends
While people just across the sea are counting the dead

A politicians job they say is very high
For he has to choose whos got to go and die
They can put a man on the moon quite easy
While people here on earth are dying of old diseases

A woman goes to work every day after day
She just goes to work just to earn her pay
Child sitting crying by a life thats harder
He doesnt even know who is his father

War Pigs (Black Sabbath)

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of deaths construction

In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds, oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
As the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of God has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
All right now!

Fates Warning, old school Prog/Power Metal.

Not all Metal is about teh Devilz you know...

Metal is diverse, with plenty of topics to sing about. Band like that are mostly into the whole fantast aspect and such...

wow after lstening to a few of august burns, there canny good, but they sound a bit like bring me the horizion lol

Suicide-Panda

At the moment, probably Killswitch Engage, as you could probably guess :P

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]

[QUOTE="battlefront23"] It is used productively. It's called metalcore. :P

battlefront23

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I don't dislike metalcore because other people do. I just don't like it. Same reason I don't really like black metal, nu metal, etc. I just don't think it's a good genre.

tbh mushroomhead pwn august burns red sorry:P

Well, if I were you, I would start by checking out/buying the Black Sabbath albums Black Sabbath and Paranoid. Heaven and Hell is also a great album by Black Sabbath. PM me with your thoughts on them, and I'll be happy to give you more advice.

Yes, I see your point, the same goes for me at times, but also the attitude and mentality that comes from the music is also important for me.

And also because I like to escape from reality at times and let my mind wonder in order to venture into the creativiy and imagination of my mind, especially at school when theres nothing to do. Hehe.
