I absolutely love how many elements this song blends together. Electronic chorus, metal-core verse, power ballad bridge, thrash metal, then just a brutal ending. Chef’s kiss on this one.

What is your favorite metal song that you just can’t share with your non-metal friends?

  • My wife, who is not a metal head, was amazed to discover the vast number of sub-genres within the broader metal community. Like what you like, other people can like what they like and that’s ok!

    As a classically trained musician, have you looked into Tool at all? Their song construction is amazingly complex and fascinating.

    • Yeah like I honestly had no idea! I thought it was just like screamo but with some more tune and less screamy, but a lot of it I’m really enjoying a lot!

      I haven’t looked into Tool yet, I know of it, but I’ll give it a listen! I’m a sucker for blasting Beast in Black going home on the garden state parkway lmao

      Edit: Checked out Tool, sounds good, but maybe not as “hype” as what I’m looking for? I just searched for a community “best of” playlist. Found Schism, which I remember from playing guitar hero lol
