    I`ve just got to say one thing; your nick is true! I bought The Whole Story yesterday, and I`m falling in love with the songs from "The Kick Inside": "Wuthering Heights", "The Man With the Child in his Eyes" and "Wow".

    What songs make you cry?

    For me, it`s got to be either "Alaska", or "Ghost of a Chance", by Shadow Gallery. I don`t know why, but they just hit a nerve in me or something.

    What nu-metal do you like?

    First off: if you were planning to post "it all sux", "i only listen teh tr00 shit", then jerk off. I know a lot of people here hate nu-metal with a passion, and I partially agree with them.

    Help me cure my Extreme Metal phobia

    Okay, here`s the deal. I`ve loathed Extreme Metal for quite some time now. Being mostly into stuff like Dream Theater, Symphony X, Threshold, Arena, Shadow Gallery and their like, the most "extreme" music I`ve listened to extensively has been Finntroll, Soilwork and Meshuggah. Yeah, I can feel...

    How is Slipknot not metal?

    Okay. I get the impression from this board that people here don`t consider Slipknot a metal band. Actually, people here don`t consider Dimmu Borgir a metal band, but I`m digressing. Now, I must admit that I`m not a fan of Slipknot, their songs are pretty monotone and the lyrics are inane, but to...
