    Dude, Miley Cyrus can ****ing sing. She belted that duet with Taylor Swift. Very mature voice for being so young. If she gets out from under Disney's watch I bet she could do some very interesting things.

    I've meet a lot of annoying Maiden fans.
    Well, everyone, prepare to have your guts kicked out by folk singers...

    I heard the Iron Maiden thing was just a stunt to earn her some 'street cred'. Either way, I like using it to try and get innocent close-minded pop fans to listen to great metal much like how I get Nirvana fans to listen to the Melvins (though the connection is actually there).

    Nirvana also liked Celtic Frost, Coffin Break, etc.

    True, but there's an actual connection to the Melvins with the Houdini album and Cobain's work on it, which makes it much easier to get people interested. Not to mention that they present themselves as innocent enough, haha.

    I honestly would not be surprised the least bit if they hate their own band. Regardless, it's not like they are being forced into it.

    I never did understand the connection between not liking good music because of a portion of their fans.

    Is this a dumb musical opinion you used to have?

    I think "Yah, B****! Yah!", beats out "Let's get freaky now, let's get f***ing freaky now".

    Honestly I used to think any music with screaming in it sucked entirely. Basically I was an idiot judging solely by the vocals. Hell, I just got into The Acacia Strain. :/
