Metal is only an attitude applied to western rock and blues influenced music.

technique and arrangment of instruments are NOT paramount in music; note choice and mood are.

A Bach Fugue in a minor key has a lot more in common with metal than "I wanna hold your hand..."


Touche, but I know of few metal songs that are composed in such a way that the melodies parade around a tonic and slowly evolve into other tone sets and key signatures. The comparison that I'm making between metal in rock is in the "riffing," songs are usually structured in terms of repetitive guitar and drum phrases rather than a constantly evolving melodic line. Though I'm not saying there aren't exceptions.
