(And that was a pretty dumb incorrect statement you made there, seeing as there are so many completely different genres within metal. There is screaming and rambling, yes. But that's not how I would define one of the biggest musical cultures in the world.)
This topic is based upon opinion. I wasn't stating that factually that's what it is, but that's what it is in my opinion. If you like it, that's fine. You like it. I hate it. To me it sounds ridiculous. That isn't a dumb or incorrect statement, it's an opinion.

Not, it's just sorta rambling and screaming with "music" in the background.
Notice there how you say
it is? Sounds like a statement to me. And a statement doesn't have to be a statement of factuality by the way, it can be a statement of opinion as well. For examaple, if I say "I don't like the color pink", that's a statement.
But, let's do it your way - it was a dumb
opinion then. Dumb - as in a not very well-developed, and based on questionable grounds - seeing as you put such a wide musical genre in one, tiny compartment. Doing so it comes out like you might have listened to two or three metal songs, which after you dismiss the whole metal-genre as one thing.
I'm fine with you not liking metal. An opinion is an opinion. My point is that you said it in a way that got me a bit irritated.
Let's say someone comes up to you and says "Why do you watch anime? It's cartoons for little kids."
That would come out as rather ignorant (and a bit offensive, if you happen to like anime), wouldn't it? There is anime that targets little kids, yes. But there is also a ton of anime that targets mature audiences.
Am I getting through?
OnT: Don't know what it is.
