favorite song noones heard?

Pretty much "Skid Row" in general, but I'd have to say that "Monkey Business" by them is my favorite. I don't quite know how to explain them... definitely heavy metal though.

Badass that used to be my favorite band.
not saying I don't like em anymore though or something but I just kinda turned in a different musical direction.

Sebastian Bach is by far one of the greatest singers of that era.
I love how with their first album you can hear the more anthemic 80s sound and with Slave To The Grind you can hear a heavier approach to it all.

"Whiteboy Blues" ~The Muggs.

My friends never know any of the music I like, but I think my favourite, most obscure song right now is Monster by The Automatic. It is freakin' sweet.

Agreed. About the Bach and Slave to the Grind thing.

Chicken Bone by Sydney with Sister R it's a part of the Cowboy Bebop Soundtrack specifically blue.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rz5ofs3xbdc of course being a soundtrack means most all of them are obscure. The most obscure songs I know though would have to be "Cells" and the original versions of "Hey Mrs." and 'The Backseat Of My Car" all by I Monster and only on the deleted version of Neveroodoreven which is rare at least in the U.S. I had to order it from the UK but some of the prices implied that it's probably rare there too.

Despite the guitar work, what do any of you find apealing in metal?

You might as well be asking why anyone likes anything. It's such a broad question, but here's a shot.

For those with the mind and ear to stand metal, it's interesting, it's energizing, it's empowering...
Well, that's about as close as I can get with such a question. There are tons of different styles of metal, and each have their own likenesses.

Is anything else required?

Still, a lot of the metal I listen to has pretty good vocals (power metal) and background orchestration (symphonic). Actually, since I rarely pay attention to lyrics, a lot of metal subgenres and their bands have good vocals...

Ugh! No! Bad!

I know it's your own respectful opinion, but I can't contain myself: Not all metal is about the guitar and vocals!

Really? It seems like all metal is about the guitar and vocals. Are there any strictly instrumental metal bands? Are there any without guitarists? I doubt it heavily.

Well, it's time for your crash course. I'll start on PM. Allow me a few minutes to compile my message.
