Any for the people that insinuated that I had no idea about music you may wish to know me and my knowledge of music before you state these things. I'm well aware of what is required to make a good band, and in reading my previous comment I used the words little talent, which in retrospect I shouldn't have applied to heavy metal bands. But, I don't think that heavy metal is quality 'music', more just who can produce the loudest and rawest noise to psyche the listener....

Originally posted by hornplayer Let's not bash the pop stars here either folks. That requires talent as well. I couldn't carry a tune if someone put it in a bucket. But pop stars are able to do that. ... To be able to hear a song that's never been played, to be able to take that song in your head and transcribe it to instruments, to then feel the emotions that the melody, harmony, and rhythm inspire, and to then be able to add words to the song that follow the emotions felt by the music. If anyone on this forum had any of these talents in the way that professional musicians do, I don't think we'd be wasting time at work posting
Two words... Ashlee Simpson.
And as for the non-underlined part, I like how you glorify writing music, but it's really not THAT difficult, though sometimes it is magical. It's not as tough as you make it sound, I've taken a few years of music composition and stuff. Really takes no effort at all, just basic math skills and a little creativity... but to do it to a point where you're writing music that makes the hair on the back of peoples' necks stand up... that's something you can't work on. That's something you're born with.

Originally posted by Kiamde Well, some metal does not take talant to do. Playing one chord as fast as you can while drumming a two-rythem beat and screaming words from Charles manson's diary is not talent. However, I can name a ton of metal bands who have talant.
Agreed. There also a lot of bad metal. But I only listin to the good/skilled
But seriously. You all should try to listin to some ManOWaR. Fight Untill we die, dawn of battle, swords into the wind, hail and kill, warriors of the world, call to arms, the power of thy sword.... I could on.

Actually they only meantion the words "sword" and "dragon" very few times. If you had a brain, or actually have listened to ManOWaR, you would have used words like steel and metal. That's called an analysis.
Yes Power Metal takes skill. Complex riffs, 4/4 with intelligent fills in 7/8 bar or 15/16 bar to emphasize the energy takes a lot of skill to compose.
I would like for you to tell us which music you like to listin to!

Even though I'm scandinavian I don't like scandinavian Metal. It's to "eletronic" Keyboards, mixing, altared voices to hide that they can't sing. No. Even though it might require skill. Why would Nordic Black metal require a lot amout of skill. Give me a detailed Technical description.
surely what music is good or bad is completely based upon opinion, what may seem talentless to one person might not to another.... i have my opinions but i cant force them upon people....

You are right. Of course. Music judgement will always be subjective. But people can't deny that there pure factual most be different amount of skill required to compose different kinds of music. Say like Hiphop/rap = Extremely simple 4/4 beat used pretty much the whole song through. You don't need to be able to sing. To make metafors or an intelligent text(always about drug, sex, violence and alcohol) All you need is to be able to rhyme.
Just list out sum music guys ... I dun care I like anything from Pennywise and Darkest hour. To like justin timberlake... well nvm he sucks. But I do like alot of stuff like I dig beetoven (Excuse me if I spelled it wrong, also dig might not be the right word for describing liking beetoven.) Thanks though guys I went out and spent like 400 dollars and Cd's lol!
