The Algorithm is a dream come true for me. I think any metalhead who dislikes this just dislikes electronic music.

I totally agree Tom Yum Goong. I love electronic music and can't help but imagine that metalheads would like artists like Autechre, Pan Sonic, and Richard Devine much more than that Algorithm stuff, lol :wink_face:

*psh* I like Autechre but adore The Algorithm.
But I guess I shouldn't have generalized so much. Here, let me rephrase that: I think any metalhead who dislikes The Algorithm hates and/or simply cannot handle pure awesomeness.

Dude, that wasn't any better, lol...
Merzbow and recent Pan Sonic should satisfy most electronic lovin' metalheads \m/ \m/
When I was in college, there was a Chinese restaurant near campus that had electronic music every Friday night in its basement bar. I only went once, and that was when they had an electronic tribute to heavy metal music. It was absolutely Fantabulous!!!

hehe, I tend to be silly at times, don't mind me. <3
I can't think of any electronic genre I don't like. My tastes in music are like: metal > electronic > classical > everything else. So combining two or more is okay in my book, even (or really, especially) if it sounds like a hyperactive drug trip.

You need to maybe get used to extreme vocals. I'm 55 in March and became used to Black Metal vocals in the mid-1990s. Most of us here have gone from pop music in youth to rock, then metal then extreme metal. It's learning to acquire new taste. It's getting out of your comfort zone. For me I started with guitar, because I didn't understand the vocals in extreme metal. I listened to the parts of the songs I liked then over years I started to understand and like harsh vocals. This year for me was getting used to dissonant guitar chords. The start was tough, but the payoffs are there in the end. Cheers!
By the way...........I have read all 25K posts in this thread, and learned a Schiit-ton, it never ends.........................................

I do like T. Rex and Hanoi Rocks. I recently finished an excellent book on glam called Shock and Awe: Glam Rock and Its Legacy, from the Seventies to the Twenty-first Century by Simon Reynolds, highly recommended. I helped out a bit with his post-punk book a decade back. Post-punk was my main thing as far as what I featured on my radio show back in the day -- Joy Division, Gang of Four, Public Image Ltd. (early), The Birthday Party, The Pop Group, Magazine, Wire, Pere Ubu, Slits, Feelies, Wipers, Comsat Angels, Chameleons, The Sound, Mission Of Burma, This Heat, Au Pairs, etc.
It's difficult to compare bands of a different era with Priest and Accept (what about Maiden?). They were the originals forging the DNA of metal. The rest just live in their universe. That said, there are a dozen or so newer bands that on any given day I'd prefer listening to over those two. There is great stuff out there, you just need time to absorb and sort out the faves.
I'm sorry if my joke about suggesting wildly different subgenres triggered a tiff. I was just teasing. I like how passionate everyone is.
