I agree that the only good thrash is old school, and that death and black metal are dumb, but the whole thing about groove metal, or post-thrash as some idiots call it, is completely wrong in every way and that anthrax is still one of the only thrash metal bands that hasnt completely sold out, so aparently theyre doin something right that all the other thrashers arent. Oh, and about the thing about Nu-metal, lol bro. That was pretty damn funny.

You appear to be missing the rule about giving your songs acronyms for names.

Youre not supposed to agree with 100% of this list...this is a joke, just see it that way. And remember kids, if you start playing out of tempo, just claim you're progressive

47. Ballads are gay. 48. Naming a song "The Ballad" is even more GAY. 49. Keep this in mind, you were not a child. 50. And when you were, your childhood was full of sorrow. 51. But at least you didn't got molested, leave that for Nu Metal suckers.
