^ LOL Anyway my parents, especially my mom, get worried by bands like children of bodom, slayer, and lamb of god. and if they read the lyrics to pretty much any cannibal corpse song they would never let me hear death metal again.
Quote from Trogdor_74: “Yeah death metal is awesome. Only started getting into it recently. Any recommendations? I like bands such as Nile, Necrophagist and Death.” Try some old-school death metal like Morbid Angel and Atheist, they're from the same movement as Death so you should like them. As far as modern stuff, try some Cannibal Corpse if you haven't yet, and Suffocation is good too.
As a general rule, death metal > deathcore. Anyone who likes deathcore has potential to like real death metal too so try some of these: Necrophagist Behemoth Nile Suffocation Unleashed Morbid Angel
Slipknot isn't thrash in any sense of the word, and they never were. Anyway, Nu-Metal music isn't insulting, in fact I like it, but the people who first classified it as a new subgenre of metal are, as well as the hordes of 13-year old kids who think that slipknot are gods.
I know a girl who said she kicked a guy in the nuts to be funny. When I told her that wasn't very nice she said that it's the same as getting hit in the boob, but I had to explain that it's definitely worse.
Quote from jawn: “if you're going to get the orange box, it really should be on the PC. tf2 with a controller is terrible compared to keyboard and mouse (and i really hate using a keyboard and mouse in most cases lol)” I agree but he did ask about xbox games...
Microsoft may be hungry money pigs, but xbox live is still better. And Xbox 360s come with a headset, whereas you need to buy one for PSN. And PSN has much worse voice quality from what I've experienced.
