Well said Dr.Nomis. I agree whole heartedly...Metal music has saved my life a number of times before having kids, now they are one of the reasons i am still alive n kickin'. Any genre of music is always there for you to suit your mood at the time. I chose Metal since hearing Saxon, Maiden, Wasp, Slayer and Metallica back in 1986. 30 years on, it is still by my side...ONLY MUCH BIGGER !!! \m/\m/. Now i share that with my kids and Fiancee who was already a MetalHead when we met. Now i am channeling that positive energy into my University studies as i am doing a Bachelors in Music Composition and Sound Production and now building Basses.
