Flag Metal
punk metal or ...............?
I am a guitarist 16 years (currently withourt a band). Ive been playing guitar for almost 4 years. I play music career, but im having trouble deciding what style of music to play. I can write punk songs, but I find them very easy somtimtes and boring. I can play pieces of metal, but i cannot write them and I do not want an atmosphere hardcore on my group. My influences: Punk: From First to Last, Chiodos, Escape The Fate, Silverstein, Blink 182, Greenday, Anti Flag and the Misfits. Metal: Protest the Hero, Lamb of God, Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet For My Valentine, Guns n Roses, Metallica, Children of Bodom (sometimes), and visit the most deformed bands (to name two) Help me decide, I do not want to be screwed by a bad choice and be unhappy playing the wrong style. Umm post harcore punk is pretty well mixed with metal elements, so I put it in punk ...
and it's not as if you had to choose a certain style to fit, you can be creative and make your own thing. You can play both the tips and tricks punk Metall, and merge. Eg. The Rise Band has cons punk style songs, but they are often just as heavy as some songs metal (instrument wise)
