I listened to Linkin Park too and I thought that was metal but the first really hardcore metal band I heard was Cradle of Filth. I even remember the song. It was Nymphetamine. Amon Amarth really owns too, imo.

I had my heart set on being a drummer when I was a gullible kid. We listened passionately to Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath on tape. Guess what? Time's gone by and I still love Black Sabbath as much as I did in those days. Supreme band!

I don't know what it is, someone told me it was screamo, another person told me it was thrash metal. it's all just music to me.

Nice to hear that you are not sucked in by the music genre game, Ms! I like your answer.

I was 16 years old when someone suggested that I should check out Necrophagist. I wasn't into metal, let alone death metal, but curious about it since people praised it for its complexity. So I sat down and connected to the all-too-expensive Internet (I was not allowed to do so, but I simply had to, so I did it stealthily) and spent a couple of minutes trying to download a song of theirs. I ended up downloading a file titled "Necrophagist - Seven" which was supposedly a sample of their song. This is what it sounded like:
Demons & Wizards - The Gunslinger

Surprisingly enough, I immediately fell in love with the music lol. Soon after, I wanted to find out who these guys are, how many of them there are (I thought there were around 5 or 6 of them just singing lol), and more of their music, but!

Oh, what a letdown this was! The only metal song I loved -- and I loved it so much -- the only link to the kind of metal I could possibly like and boom! I couldn't figure out the name of the freaking band.
Took several years to run into Blind Guardian.
