The vocals do turn lots of people off of the heavier style of metal. When I first started moving further and further into the faster / heavier metal I did not understand the lyrics but the music had me absolutely hooked. Over time (it takes a while) I started to be able to hear the lyrics clearer and clearer LOL. When I have any of this music on in the truck with my wife I have to act as a translator for her.

Thanks so much for the reply! I want to see how many people out here do like the heavier stuff.
