I don't think you can rightfully say that you hate all of it, simply because you've never listened to every single metal song in the world.
I can rightfully say I hate all of it because it is the exact same genre and all songs are similar.

Uh, no you can't. Do you have any idea how hugely songs can differ from one another, even within the same genre?

I really don't care. It still all sounds the same to me, and even if they are different from eachother, I still don't like the song.

Are you simply saying that you do not like one song, a specific song, or are we still saying that you don't like the entire thing as a whole?

Oh Vendetta, you are incredibly qualified to make a wide generalization for a genre of music that has an incredible amount of sub-genres.

I don't like any single kind of song with any kind of screaming that in implemented. It is not that hard to understand.

I am so sorry I offend you so much and you need to defend your music so dearly.

It does not matter weather or weather I don't listen to all the songs. I don't like the genre and all it's subgenres. I spend my time listening to classical and "new age" types of music. I don't get involved in the genere in any way because I don't like it. i am quite there is not a single screamo song that sounds like a symphony.

The fact is, I listen do different types of music. There can be screamo songs that differ from eachother, but I still don't like them. I completely understand the fact that they can sound different, but it is not good to my ears.

It's not like every metal genre has a "symphonic" subgenre.

As a person who listens to Death Metal and Beethoven's 9th back to back, I think I am more than qualified to make this statement. Unlike you.

No I am not you [&@%!] idiot. I understand that you say I have never heard every single song in the genre. I really don't believe you have either, that is quite a feat. I understand the songs can differ from each other and I understand that you can like some more than others. But in my mind, I just don't like the music in general, so I don't have the ability to like one more than the other. Is it really that difficult of a concept to understand?

What's difficult for me to understand is that you think you hate every song in a genre despite having never listened to a great majority of them.

I can't listen to the majority of them because I don't like it. Don't think that you should like a genre first before you start researching it? I'm not going to force myself to like it.

You realize that you can like songs despite not usually enjoying the genre they belong to?

I listen to quite a few songs that I enjoy from genres I don't particularly like. I don't listen to all of them, just the ones I enjoy. Tarja Turunen and Lisa Gerrard for example. I just never was able to get into the screaming genre.

Isn't this the same thing as not liking songs despite generally enjoying the genre they belong to?

I can understand though, it seems pretty damn ignorant to make a blanket statement like this. For example, there is a lot of metal doesn't like it, Diablo Swing Orchestra comes to mind. There's also metal songs with a full orchestra playing along. Here's some:

Blind Guardian - Wheel of Time

YouTube Link

Abigail Williams - Beyond the Veil

YouTube Link

Ensiferum - By the Dividing Stream

YouTube Link

Diablo Swing Orchestra - Justice for Saint Mary

YouTube Link

Nightwish - Ghost Love Score

YouTube Link

Nightwish - A Song of Myself

YouTube Link

For the sake of us, I strongly reccomend that you at least give one of these songs a try. Otherwise, you just appear as blatantly ignorant. I am not trying hostile, I just want to show you that some of your statements are not that valid. Diablo Swing Orchestra, for example, is a great metal band, that doesn't sound like a metal band a lot of the times. It has operatic vocals and basically is a swing band at times.


Ninja edit: You like Tarja Turunen but not what Nightwish does? It's not a screaming genre, metal.

About tarja, I never said they where screamo. I was simply explaining that there are generes that I don't like very much with songs that I do.

On the videos you posted, yes I enjoyed the orchestral work, but when the electrical guitar and lyrics come in, I just don't want to listen to it. It is not a style I enjoy.
