Anyone else into Folk Metal or Symphonic Metal? (a Headbangers Paradise)

I'm a big fan! Folk, neo-classical, operatic, symphonic, black, death, Japanese, and progressive metal. I love it all, new and old. Its also costly to import for the non torrent using individual.

For sure, at my College (University of Central Florida) We have a Heavy Metal Club... so we all find/get new music/bands from each other. I have simply learned not to ask where it was downloaded from lol I like to support the bands that I like, and do so as often as possible.

More labels are starting to get stuff over here but its still mostly main stream like nightwish and such. I got most of mine in college too. Exchange students with sister schools in places like Tokyo help But the really good stuff is almost impossible to find torrents of and itunes doesn't have rights to them. I have also notices that some of the music I have gotten from itunes has disappeared off my device the last time I did an up date and it doesn't show in my purchase history. Make sure you always burn a hard copy!

In my middleschool music class i did a project on Metallica and for the background info i explained how they originally wanted to name their album Metal Up Your A$$, instead of Kill 'em All. I got sent to the principles office bc the teacher said it was innapropriate. Ever since then ive loved metal haha.

Thats some pretty cool stuff aaron, havent heard of most of it before. Thanks for sharing!

Haha My music teacher in 8th grade allowed us to play Ride The Lightening for a full class which was my start to metal. Actually just a few months ago so GWAR for the first time. This is from the show I found on you tube I was up front and got a face full of blood from the headless zombie.

Apocalyptica, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Born of Osiris, Eluveitie

Nom. I like to chuck a bit of pirate metal in there too, Alestorm Numnumum.

Pirate metal is bad a$$ !

In highschool all the shop teachers ( wood working, automotive, and metal work ) were all metal heads (all 3 different teachers) So we would always be aloud to play our music during class.

I have actually gone to a concert with one of those teachers!

While I'm a huge Thrash Fan (Old-School or Teutonic), I do enjoy Folk metal a lot, but for reason I can't stand most Symphonic Metal.

And for sure it doesn't have anything to do with the fact that it's symphonic, since right after Thrash, my favorite music is Classical and Symphonic/Orchestral music.

How about some plain old Melodic Death Metal like Dethklok? Hands down one of my favorite bands.
