Trust me, it's still metal. Don't let the taste-makers decide what you play!! :evil:

Nah, I don't let anyone decide what I play (although if they ever heard me play, people of taste would ask me to stop...)

It's just the terminology which seems to have changed.  I used to call UFO or Dokken metal, but the term "metal" now seems to mostly be applied to stuff with vocals that go "Rowwr RowRoowr Oooorwr RooowwwrGGHH!".  But we've discussed that to death (not Death).

A young person speaks!  Thanks Joe, that makes me feel a bit less antiquated.  :wink:

Mainly rock. Some metal, some blues, but mainly rock.
I'm surprised about the vote results so far... most posts here (especially in the pickups section) are metal based.
Maybe you metalheads can just shout louder.

I agree.

I play a bit of everything- blues, jazz (er, badly, i'm trying to learn), classic rock, 80's metal/rock/shred, 50's etc.

I like most guitar music. As long as it doesn't have "alternative" or "indie" somewhere in the title of the genre, odds are I like it.
