      Tbh according to a study scientists have found that metal and classical music induce kinda the same feelings in people. They are both overbearing, loud, somewhat majestic in their ways kinds of music. So while you won't see mosh pits at opera houses (make it happen ppl, with white wigs and period clothing, come on) the feel is there certainly. Especially baroque classical era of music is like thta. Deep, somewhat dark, majesticc, just less intense than metal is and ofc less distorted

      @omega1231 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      +Brother Captain Koravael I wouldn't have thought you would need a scientific study to tell you that, alot of metal musicians were inspired by traditional classical like Beethoven and Bach, so it's not that odd that it conveys the same feelings of grandeur and heavy emotions, imo metal is the true progeny of traditional classical, since most orchestral music written today is best described as musac (music with a purpose, i.e. soundtracks etc. whatever wictionary says it's not necessarily a derogatory term, it's actually a technical term in music describing a certain niche which is being filled currently either by electronica or orchestral music)

    Hey guys from Skálmöld. I found the recording of this concert by chance on youtube and watched it six times in full length. Then I bought the recording. So glad I have found you !
    I still love to watch the concert on youtube from time to time, it gives me the energy when I am stuck in difficult tasks and need motivation.
    Please please come on tour soon to Germany!

      - Kristoffer - no problem, if you want to meet women for whatever purpose you don't go to a metal concert. I guess that is the one type of concert where there is no queue at the women's loo :D
      the concert itself was great and I even had a short chat with one member of the band. Yeay!

      Yea metal concerts are real sausage fests aren't they. And thanks for the tip but I already have a girlfriend so no searching for women for me.
      And while we are at it... Witch one of them did you talk to?

      - Kristoffer - the guy with the long blond hair, usually right side on the stage. Just paid some compliments for the performance.
      that is one thing what I love about smaller concerts. Standing in the first row without hassle is one of the other
