  • It's not misinformation, it's a description of the music. Perhaps we just have different point of views here, but from a genre nazis point of view, speed metal both reffers to what you stated as an umbrella term for traditional (and some cases thrash) metal bands with speed-up songs and as an umbrella term for all metal bands with a major number of speedy songs. Dragonforce is nintendo amfetamine metal, and has nothing to do with the latter two.

    And being a keyboardist myself, it's only natural to like it as a solo instrument!

  • Admit it dude, does what you said make sense to you? Do you see it as normal that the same term should refer to two (almost) totally distinct types of music? Plus, it's clear the term first defined the genre i mentioned, and it has been around since the early 80s, so i don't see why people should take it as an umbrella term. You're no good as a genre nazi :P

  • That's exactly WHAT I am. A good genre nazi, because I know the diverse use of a proper term. It's not a metal subgenre. It's a metal umbrella-term with two diverse meanings. And I don't see the problem. Fast metal equals speed metal. Because it's speedy. Fast. This is what genre-nazism i all about. Descriptions!

  • So by that enlightened judgment 1349 or Marduk are speed metal :D Ok sure... Maybe you can give me a link to a respectable website which states that speed metal might refer to that as well, cos i've only heard of such a horrible mistaggings irl.

    The less stubborn users might want to continue their game too.

  • IMO both those bands can be reffered to as Speed metal. Ok, I admit, I'm being a stubborn fightpicker, but damn, all my life I've thought speed metal was a misleading, confusing and very ridicolous term to use of a genre. Why is this not a term for all speedy metal bands? That's what it really should be!

  • It is a confusing term indeed, i'd much prefer simply heavy metal but in the context of the time it made sense (even though many speed metal bands aren't even that fast for modern terms). Plus, after that it's stupid to just take that term and call other bands that play a completely different genre speed metal. And why should there be a term for all the speedy bands? It would make no sense for Sonata Arctica to be part of the same genre as Dark Angel or 1349, they simply play in a different matter.

  • Well, that's what you think, but try being an obsessive, mindfocusing, mad genre-nazi who needs an explenation for everything. I live in a cold, hard box of narcissism when it comes to music genres!

    But I guess you're right. Congrats, you silenced the great Izzy. You deserve a brownie!

  • There's no such thing as freedom in zionism.

    A: I'm not easy to troll. I'm easy to annoy. When people act rude and like jackasses over the internet without any reason for it, I snap. Just because this is internet doesn't mean that people have to be a bunch of primitive, inpolite twats.

    Because I'm the best.

    Q: Why are you not the best?

  • Because it takes several years of education, practice and more years of living experience. I will never be the best at what I do. But I like being good at it.
