I can see how if you were high and weren't into metal and someone put on some cannibal corpse how you could be really turned off by metal. It's an aquired taste.
Nicely put...i agree with the "beginner" metalhead comment.After the black album metallica sucked.I personally do not like cannibal corpse.I cannot stand the dudes voice,and i do not really like their music in general.Where i draw the line is cradle of filth,i like them.But i do have a few six feet under tracks...silent violence is a killer track.Iam more of the "drink some bourbon in the boondocks and get crazy" metal dude...not "the talk about fucking stiff dead bodies get crazy" dude.
