Define "Heavy Metal"? Everyone seems to have slightly different opinions on music, and genres blur a lot of lines these days. But if you mean along the lines of Avenged Sevenfold or Disturbed, I'm a fan.

@UckfayOuyayOotay Avenged Sevenfold or Disturbed? They are punk, and bad punk at that.
@UckfayOuyayOotay i think they would be considered a sub genre of metal. but, i think Disturbed has a good sound. Breaking Benjamin and Five Finger Death Punch as well.

@SheCallsMeCrushDaddy Disturbed have an appalling sound. I was disturbed when I heard their version of "The Sound Of Silence". It was disgusting.

@KingKripple I can tell we're not going to be friends. 😏

@UckfayOuyayOotay Why not? I try to be friends with everyone.

@KingKripple Mostly because I personally feel that David Draiman's voice is one of the most amazing things to be introduced to the Nu Metal genre, and his rendition of Sound Of Silence sets a new high standard for cover songs.

@UckfayOuyayOotay Nu Metal? Ha ha ha ha ha ha. You mean punk under a nu name. Even this was a better cover of "The Sound Of Silence" than the Disturbing version.

@KingKripple That's not terrible by any means, but it's also barely different than the original. I appreciate Disturb's cover in it's original approach to the song.
