Is heavy metal dead in the water?

As long as people still listen to it mossbags, it lives on.

They said the same thing about Minstrel shows and look what happened there!

There is more variation in heavy metal.

Have a listen of this Moss.

As Dunphy might say himself GF, good but not great. For the purists, Machine-Heads true metal credentials are and always have been questionable.
The below however, might well have been the last great Metal song ever recorded

Theyre not to my liking Mossbags. I prefer power metal, groove metal, thrash metal etc but doom/gothic metal aren't my preffered choice anymore. The last great heavy metal songs were made by Pantera.

Cowboys from hell and walk. Metallica I dont rate at all. The closest thing to Pantera these days is Lamb of god.

I never have much of a choice when it comes to what music I'd prefer, it chooses me rather than the other way round, thats probably why I listen to more Tom Waits than Heavy metal these days



When I'm lyin' in my bed at night
I don't wanna grow up
Nothin' ever seems to turn out right
I don't wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That's always changing things
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don't ever wanna be that way
I don't wanna grow up

Seems like folks turn into things
That they'd never want
The only thing to live for
Is today...

I'm gonna put a hole in my TV set
I don't wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
And I don't wanna grow up

I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don't wanna have to learn to count
I don't wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up

Well when I see my parents fight
I don't wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
And I don't wanna grow up
I'd rather stay here in my room
Nothin' out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old Tomb
On Grand Street

When I see the 5 o'clock news
I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don't wanna grow up

Stay around in my old hometown
I don't wanna put no money down
I don't wanna get me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don't wanna float a broom
Fall in love and get married then boom
How the hell did I get here so soon

I don't wanna grow up

Maybe you have reached that age Mossbags

I reached that age when I tuned six GF

You're a cracking singer alright. Thought I noticed you on youtube. Shame you never sang any Slayer.
