The genre "metal" has been hackneyed and kicked around so much lately! When I think of metal I think of bands like Metallica, Black Sabbath (with Ozzy..Dio was more into prog)), Led Zeppelin (very heavy at times), Converge(Jane Doe album!),Slayer, Judas Priest, Megadeth, Slipknot(love to see them live!),, Machine Head the band not DP's album, bands like that! I equate heavy metal to loud hard music. Unfortunately all of the bands mentioned are older and have been around for decades except for Slipknot, Converge and Machine Head.
There seems to be a thin line nowadays between hard rock and metal. The genres are intertwined and let's face it there are far too many heavy metal genres!

The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!
