    I've always felt Chuck Schuldiner used swearing the right way. He rarely cussed (apart from Scream Bloody Gore) in any of his songs or albums, and when he did, it always felt natural, and made the songs sound so angry and exciting.

    Generic, but did it first.

    I have lots of dream vacations... 1. Neptune (or any other blue planet). They all just seem so eerie and mysterious. 2. Norway. So much culture there, and it seems like such as relaxing place. 3. The Roads. I've always been a fan of long car rides, preferably with music playing. Some of my best memories are driving across the Midwest listening to Ride the Lightning, The Black Parade, and music like that.

    This doesn't only apply to metal, but does anyone get sick of constant swearing in music? I'm in NO WAY saying cussing is wrong or immoral, in fact, I believe in quite the opposite of that. I think that you should treat "cuss words" like any other words, and using the word "f-ck" (don't know if that is allowed here) 81 times in a song like most of Slipknot's (or most nu-metal and thrash bands, as a matter of fact) is a major factor in why swearing is taboo. Using profanity occasionally adds "fire" to a song, but, in my opinion, using those kinds of words constantly just makes you sound immature. I don't even know why I'm posting this, I just want to here your guy's opinions (major contradiction, haha).

    I realize that. I wasn't saying EVERYTHING is original, I'm just saying that there are some VERY original metal bands out there, and those have spawned some of the world's best musicians and songs. Also, those types of metal bands are the ones that everyone looks up too, at least MUCH more than those thousands of Pantera-Slayer hybrid garage bands on Bandcamp. I know, but, to me, it's what they do in those verses and choruses that count. Black Sabbath created a genre in which thousands of bands existed today in those verses and choruses, just as Judas Priest made one of the first "thrash metal" songs, upon dozens of other achievements, and Iron Maiden created some of the best melodies in existence, although that is subjective.

    Thanks. I'm not an idiot, I've already written all the songs, and they all come from some big events that have happened in my life recently. I love them all, which is crazy because I usually think my songs aren't up to par with my favorites. You guys are totally right, now that I think about it. Each and every other band I have been in have tried to follow what they think people would like, and we didn't end up with something very innovative. These new songs I'm working on are NWOBHM influenced progressive rock with a hint of disco. Just like you, actually, I'm into music that blows me away. Not technically, I hate that kind of stuff. It's almost all bland "scale nonsense". Anyways, mostly older progressive rock, comedy, NWOBHM, and stuff like that. Any bands you'd recommend?

    I'm going into the studio to record a demo on Wednesday. I've had dozens of unsuccessful bands in the past, partly because they aren't innovative, and I want that to change. What do YOU want to see?

    What does metal mean to me? It, to me, is a subculture built around TRUE progression. Something with as very little refrains as metal has is undoubtedly going to spawn some of the world's most creative and wild ideas and people, who aren't afraid to express themselves.
