Question:

In your opinion, what is true metal?

For the most hardcore of metal fans. I have heard differing opinions on what exactly true metal is, some define it and point it out as specific genre of metal, while others define it as certain musical elements or styles of playing the electric guitar, bass, drums, and even a certain vocal style. Some examples: some have said true metal is thrash metal and is what really put heavy metal on the map (I agree that thrash brought metal into the spotlight) and others say its the hard hitting distorted sound of the electric guitar, screaming vocals, fast bass and fast drumming. In my opinion, true metal is defined by musical elements and playing styles.
