Is that your definition? if u are going to emit one opinion you better get informated first. Have u ever heard Chuck Schuldiner? Angela Gossow? the voice in death metal is only a part of the message of agression that the music try to give.
Thrash metal is the evolution of heavy metal to more rapid riffs and solos, instrumentalism is reached to another level.
I repeat it again, voice in death metal is only a part of the agression message. It seems that you dont hear Dark Tranquility or Death in his last times. They sing far better that the groups that you mention.
Well as you say to each his own.
Death metal has evolved from grindcore a genre that have a great love for gore. But Groups like death, dark tranquility, atheist, cynic, have lyrics that involve all kind of themes.
Goth metal anti christian??? that is Black Metal, read "Lords of Chaos" for more examples. Tristania is power, and power metal (stratovarius, sonata artica, nightwish, etc.) its no metal (sounds funny i know) And btw Power its evolution not of Iron Maiden but of a legendary band : Helloween.
Melodic Death a subgenre of power???? ..... no comments.
Hammerfall is Speed Heavy metal.
in all matter of cases the only thing i care if its metal or no.

This is what I mean, people always have different definitions, and anyone else's definitions are automatically wrong to them. For some reason the metal genre elitists always hate power metal too. You can't define the lines between genres so strongly, like "black metal is always anti-christian, but goth metal never is". I didn't say melodic death is a subgenre of power, I said it's related to power. And I think you'd have to be deaf not to hear a relation. I don't see how you get power metal out of Tristania either. I'd say Helloween is an evolution of early Iron Maiden too. I was just using it as an example anyway. If Hammerfall's Glory to the Brave isn't power metal I don't know what is. That really sounds all that different from Stratovarius? I must be listening to something else. I should know better not to get involved in music discussions and particularly not in genre discussions, I guess we will just have to agree to disagree.
