now there are many interpretations of metal. But there are 3 metal gods who must be honored and paid omage to as the greatest.

Before that though, one thing. For these new metal bands coming into the scene (not nu metal just new) there must be a balance. We must remember what metal is. We can't leave the model set for us. Like going unplugged, that's not metal. But we can't be carbon copies, we must progress and continue to push the bar up.

So we walk a razor's edge.
