Also whilst i am on a rant, people need to get a grip and stop calling bands who make it sell outs, so what if they are? Usualy its only arseholes who say bands sellout, people with a brain no bigger than rabbits
I really don't see how you can say that about metal when apparently you haven't heard real metal. This stuff is nu-metal/hard rock, and is WAY more popular than metal is.
Most people haven't heard true metal though, so I can't blame them for having a skewed idea of what metal is.

Now there is a real metal band. Crazy riffs, brutal drumming, and the vocals of course you won't like, but I think you'll agree that these guys have a lot of skill. Metal has the most talented musicians in music, you just have to listen to the right stuff which is hard to find since all the popular "metal" is pure crap.
You won't like it, the vocals are still all growls and you probably just won't like the music in general, but it should change your view on how talented (or untalented) you claim metal bands are.
