I thought this would be a really fun video to go over from various perspectives! I'm so hyped to hear your picks and lists for the genres I talk about in this video! Let me know down below your own opinions on both my list as well as your own!!!!!!! But for now, cheers, rock on, stay heavy and have yourselves a fantastic rest of your day or night, depending on when you see this!!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@TheMetalTempestYTSounds great! If you end up getting to making that video, I do have some predictions in mind, but I’ll keep them to myself for now until then.
This is very slightly unrelated to the video. But, I just want to say, I am really glad Acid Bath is growing in popularity, and re-uniting. I do hope this also brings people to listen the members work outside of Acid Bath too. As you know by now, I am a HUGE Dax Riggs fan. He was my pfp at some point.
As a symphonic metal fan, I agree Nightwish has to be the pick for the genre, even though they are not my favourite band, honestly not even close. Epica has a much smaller fan base, but they are by far my favourite, both because they are on the heavier side, and because they spend time and energy on creating shows like their recent "The Symphonic Synergy" shows in Amsterdam and Mexico City
My favorite music genres were Nu Metal and Alternative Metal. Besides Slipknot, some lesser-known but great nu metal bands include Nonpoint, Spineshank, SOiL, Nothingface, Kittie, 40 Below Summer, and Dry Kill Logic. For alternative metal, I enjoy Three Days Grace, Thousand Foot Krutch (I know it's Christian), Downplay, Hoobastank, and Breaking Benjamin. They really draw me in. There are also many small nu metal bands apart from the well-known ones.
this appeared on my fyp lmao, and i was like yeah okay. for metalcore, i kinda hoped youd say parkway drive or i prevail tbh- disappointed but not surprised. Parkway has been around for like 40 years and a lot of people i know dont even them(considering we’re in Australia, id expect them to know Parkway lol)
Cool vid but I gotta veto the Grindcore pick. I’m not sold on Cattle Decap being grindcore (or grindcore enough) to accurately represent that scene. I do agree in the last 15 years they’ve seen huge growth and have an enormous reach online. But the records you pointed to that are grabbing the average Joe’s attention who don’t keep their ear to the ground on this stuff barely have grindcore on them. Especially the last two. I can see a case for grind elements being present on Monolith but the last 3 are taking from black metal and combining it with brutal death metal, in my eyes. There’s a much stronger case for their deathgrind status on records like Harvest Floor, Karma.Bloody.Karma and then obviously the first 2. But yea picking Cattle Decap as the most popular grindcore band is like picking Cradle of Filth as the most popular black metal band. Thats not a slight against the bands, it just feels like they don’t quite accurately match up. And I’d have to go Napalm Death here.
That's absolutely valid and I can understand a lot of these points. realistically, cattle decap's deathgrind style always seemed to steadily grow even more popular. and in the same way their sound has diverged, there was that whole timeline of Napalm Death's mid catalogue of practically becoming a death metal band for lack of better terms. Napalm's obviously the pick most would make.
Combining gothic and doom feels like a cop-out, Candlemass and Sleep (who are probably the biggest doom bands) do not have much stylistic overlap with gothic metal other than "slow and atmospheric" (which I'd argue their atmospheres are substantially different). Doom's distinction from gothic metal becomes more apparent when you consider bands like Solitude Aeturnus, Pentagram, Cirith Ungol, Pallbearer, Witchcraft, etc.
Honestly, I was trying to approach things from a way to include both! Since I feel as if I wanted to be basic, I could say black sabbath for doom. But when it comes to the average non-metal listener, Type O's name and legacy really permeates on both of those genres. Keep in mind, it's not just about metalhead's opinions solely in terms of what I tried to base this off of. But that's absolutely fair.
with metalcore i think more of falling in reverse, for the normy area, how much they took over social media. As far as nu metal goes, I don't know how we have this discussion without KoRn.
Honestly, that's valid in terms of KoRn! I just saw them pretty similar to NiN for industrial metal--very well known, but also offputting to a widespread audience. when it comes to the aesthetic/influence of nu-metal, i tried to look at what defined that generation.
Haven't watched yet, let me predict Traditional: Iron Maiden Thrash: Metallica (Duh) Death: Cannibal Corpse Black: Mayhem Gothic: Type O Negative Grindcore: Napalm Death Symphonic: Nightwish Power: Helloween Blackgaze: Deafheaven Deathcore: Suicide Silence or Whitechapel Metalcore: Killswitch Engage or As I Lay Dying Drone: Sunn O))) Prog: Dream Theater Alternative: Primus???? Groove:Pantera Folk: Alestorm Sludge: Acid Bath Electronic metal:Bring Me The Horizon Nu Metal: Linkin Park Rap Metal: Rage Against the Machine Glam: Motley Crue Doom: Black Sabbath Industrial: Nine Inch Nails DSBM: Xasthur baddiecore lol: Bad Omens Kawaii metal: Babymetal The last 2 are obviously not seriously. But hope I'm right
@@TheMetalTempestYTmy definition of alternative metal is horrible. It's honestly a bit of an umbrella term, I dunno if I wanna call Sabbath doom over trad. But I dunno. Also the type O one is correct. Definitely.
From the perspective of someone who actively avoids grindcore and thus isn't very knowledgeable about it, I've heard way more people talk about both Napalm Death and Pig Destroyer than Cattle Decapitation.

I have an idea for a video. Can you do a most popular *song* in each metal subgenre?
Ooh, that would be a LOT of fun! I'd love to!!
@@TheMetalTempestYTSounds great! If you end up getting to making that video, I do have some predictions in mind, but I’ll keep them to myself for now until then.
For Nu Metal I gotta say KoRn
Popular not what you think is the best
Woooop I opened youtube and this video popped up perfect timing
Yay!! Hope you enjoy it man! :D
for black metal I'd say it's mayhem bc whenever people talk about the Norwegian black metal scene, they tent to be at the forefront.
this might b a bit biased bc i was introduced 2 black metal from a yt documentary about mayhem
I'm not into black metal and they're the only band I recognized, so I think that's a good pick.
Ayo new Metal Tempest video. Say less, imma watch. Also this is my first comment on one of your vids I believe.
ayy, thank you so much! happy to have you here!!
Omg this was such a fun video to watch!😁 I totally agree with you especially on Black Metal, you literally read my mind. A great video as always! 🖤
Immediately stopped working on my noise project to watch this, lmao.
Haha, I appreciate it a ton.

Also, random question, but do you like Rozz Williams? I have been a fan for six years now.
i was shocked to not see djent mentioned lol. but if i were to choose i'd prob say meshuggah

kittie was amazing, Korn was my nu-metal obsession when I was in high school.
how accurate that that specific undertale song is playing while talking about black metal at 7:36 lol
this appeared on my fyp lmao, and i was like yeah okay.
for metalcore, i kinda hoped youd say parkway drive or i prevail tbh- disappointed but not surprised. Parkway has been around for like 40 years and a lot of people i know dont even them(considering we’re in Australia, id expect them to know Parkway lol)
That's valid! Honestly, I was trying to base this off of widespread appeal to both metal and non-metal fans.

Turns out Marilyn Manson is sober and is now skinny again, just wanted to say that since the thumbnail has an old picture of him
great list but my man how can u not include mastodon in sludge metal.
Any answer other than Korn for Nu metal is a TRAVESTY 😂
LMAO, nu metal was the most difficult shit for me to figure out because of how much I love like a solid 10 or up bands that're massively popular

@@TheMetalTempestYTthats it. I've lost all respect for you. You put Cattle Decapitation over Napalm. Unsubscribed lol 😂
@Izanamimusic is kawaii metal actually a sub genre?
Industrial = Ministry. This is not a discussion.
That'd be a great pick!
