I absolutely love how many elements this song blends together. Electronic chorus, metal-core verse, power ballad bridge, thrash metal, then just a brutal ending. Chef’s kiss on this one.

What is your favorite metal song that you just can’t share with your non-metal friends?

    I like a lot of what I consider ‘classic’ metal, which I hope is not offensive. Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Dio, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin. I like a lot of nu metal too, I hope that doesn’t get me banned.

    I’d like to try more, I think it’s just the extreme varieties I can’t really get into.

      Ideally, I’d love it if we curbed the gatekeeping and “nu metal isn’t metal” circlejerk here before it has a chance to start

        First one to start the ‘nu metal isn’t metal’ brigade gets my nu foot up their ass lol.

        It is really great to hear this community is more open, it put me off sharing metal tastes in the past.

        Also turns out I listen to way more power metal than I thought. Started a power metal playlist and recognised loads of bands.
