    Hello... From The Gutter!!!

    Old school Metal fan from the 80s & 90s. I love older Metal (most sub-genres) like Slayer, Megadeth, Overkill, Anthrax, KISS, W.A.S.P., Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Dio, etc... I do listen to a few more modern groups when I happen to stumble upon them such as Mastodon and Amon Amarth.

    Right on man, new Overkill is blistering. I love jogging to that CD. I get looks when singing "I wish you were dead" with the headphones on.
  • This is cool. I am a fan of all types of metal, powermetal nerd, though. I also LOVE "classic rock" (late 60's, 70's, 80's) glam rock, hair metal, black metal, some industrial/goth. I am living in Las Vegas, which is starting to become somewhat of a "classic rock" resurgence scene with more than just a handful of former/current rockers living here and hanging out. its cool.

    glad to be in this group

    Glad to have you! How do you transition from glam/hair over to black metal? That's a wide gap!

    Hey ya,
    I'm Jenni and a German Metalhead. I grow up with Twisted Sisters, Black Sabath and similar stuff from the LP collection of my uncle. Now I'm mostly listening to bands like Blind Guardian, children of Bodom, Nightwish, Finntroll, ASP, Letzte Instanz, and Mono Inc. So... I don't really have a genre which I like most...

    OHh my I love Blind Guardian, COB (older albums) and Nightwish (older albums) and I love Finntroll!! I havent heard of the other stuff but I love your collection! :D

    Yay for the group!

    I'm mostly into the European flavor of metal.. I like Doom, Death, Melodic, Symphonic, Power etc.

    I'm an American living in France and used to sing in a Melodic Death Metal band, I'm currently looking for a new band.

    Hey everyone- I feel like I'm a bit old for labels now but I wear a lot of black and listen to post-punk, black metal, sludge, etc.
    Aside from music I like reading, cats and horror films.

    Hi folks - another group noob here. New to MFP as well. I live in Washington (since everyone asks.. The State, not D.C.), and I'm a geek. I spend a lot of time on my computer in a virtual world called "Second Life", where occasionally I stream music into a virtual nightclub and talk on mic and call myself a "DJ". (Though it's not so much in the sense of having equipment and mixing tunes, it's more like a radio type DJ..anyway.)

    Thanks to Second Life my musical tastes and knowledge have expanded 10-thousandfold (that might be a slight exaggeration) over the past 7 years that I've been a member. I have learned of so many more genres and bands/artists that I never would have been exposed to otherwise - including music from all over the globe.

    I consider myself extremely eclectic (yep, even *some* opera, rap and country!), but the tunes I listen to the most are usually nu-metal, alternative, gothic, some stompy stompy industrial, synthpop and stuff like that there.

    Some names from my musical library include: Abney Park, Avenged Sevenfold, Bloodsimple, , Coheed and Cambria, Cradle of Filth, Disturbed, Evanescence, Five Finger Death Punch, Foo Fighters, Godsmack, HIM, In This Moment (I want to marry the song "Blood" off the new album!), Halestorm, Kittie, Lacuna Coil, Marilyn Manson, Otep, Poisonblack, Porcelain and the Tramps (also known as Porcelain Black), Puscifer, Rammstein, Shinedown, Skindred, Soil, Static-X, Takida, The Birthday Massacre, The Rasmus, Type O Negative, The Cruxshadows, The 69 Eyes, Volbeat, Voltaire, 30 Seconds to Mars, Escape the Fate, Ozzy, IAMX, Combichrist, Hanzel und Gretyl, God Module, Covenant, Diary of Dreams, NamNamBulu, VNV Nation, Mechanical Moth, E Nomine, Apoptygma Berzerk, Assemblage 23, Wolfsheim, Razed In Black, Leather Strip, Faderhead.

    I'm always open to band recommendations (If you can find one I don't already know!) :)

  • Hi, all. I'm Natalee, and I'm more of a punk than a metalhead, though I'm not limited to punk. ;)
    I enjoy anywhere from the classics (Sex Pistols) to today's more "adapted" punk-rock (Arctic Monkeys).

    I'm a big ska fan, too.
    Born and raised.
  • Hey, I'm glad to find a metal group on here. I'm Laura. I'm from London, UK and just moved to LA 3 months ago. I love metal - mainly Swedish Melodic Death and Classic Heavy Metal but pretty open on most genres.

    Hey there,


    I'm Jen. I'm a lifelong metal fan who was blessed to marry a fellow lifelong metalhead. My taste in metal is pretty expansive becuase I love pretty much everything from the classic metal bands all the way up through nu metal and post-grunge.

    Great to see a group like this here!

    so glad I found this group!!! \mm/
  • Hey I'm Leah this group seems pretty dead but maybe getting some new blood in it will make it undead undead undead....yes I did just make that corny of a joke. Music wise I am into goth rock, industrial (old and new), neo folk, neo classical, dark ambient, power noise, ebm, coldwave, darkwave and a little bit of other stuff here and there. I don't really know what else to put here, hate talking about myself to myself ha.

    I'd really like it if this place weren't dead.

    I mostly listen to Industrial, Deathrock, all kinds of metal, some punk (mostly the Misfits, the Ramones, Dead Kennedy's, that era)... also the Knife (Swedish Electronica group).

    My boyfriend cracks me up- he's about a foot taller than me an lots of muscle, but he always tells people I'm more brutal than he is. he's mostly talking about my music taste.

    I bought my first CD with my own money when I was 13 (10 yeas ago) ; Ain't It Dead Yet by Skinny Puppy is still one of my favorites. PLEASE let people still post in here :)
  • Greetings.
    I see it's a bit dead here, but it's a metal group, so... here goes.
    I am a solo metal musician.
    I don't quite know what sub genre I play anymore. Lol
    I get most of my inspiration from black metal, of which I am a huge fan.
    (I am a fan of many genre's and sub genre's.)
    I play rhythm guitar, bass, keyboards, I do vocals, and program drums.
    I produce all of my own.
    My favorite bands at the moment are watain, abigail williams, immortal, etcetera.
    I also really dig industrial metal and rock.
    I may get crucified here on this, but I really dig Marilyn Manson.
    My absolute favorite singer is ozzy.
    Anyway, I am happy that there is a metal group here.
    I used to be skinny as a rod, but upon kicking drugs, finding a wife, having kids, and such.
    I've been a bit overweight for the last decade.
    I'm attempting to get the skinny back.
  • Hello all,

    Am new to the group, as well as my fitness pal. I see the group is dead, but joined anyway.
    Feel free to add
  • Also just joined the dead MGP United group. Maybe new year blood will liven the place up a little? Glad to find some like minded folks on MFP though. Cheers!

  • Just joined the group. Looking for people in the same boat as I am. (in their 30s and trying to lose weight (again)) No Use for a Name is still one of my favorite bands to jog to.
