I started listening to heavymetal in 90s because I want to prove that it would give me suicidal tendencies. But I became happier instead 😄

The mosh pit has been my fountain of youth for over 30 years. I'm 51 now and hope to be able to mosh again soon.

Metalcore and Heavy Metal are the best usic style that can improve your memory at work, university and school.
Metalcore get you focus, motivated and happy. Heavy metal is useful when you are heavy burden by stress, anxiety and depression, to help you release that anger inside. If you know you, and use this two style you cleary can improve your life for better.
I use this as ritual, before study something new, before an interview/exam to calm my anxiety and get me focus on what im doing.
When i dont listen to them, i feel that something is missing.

Uma coisa que eu sempre faço nos festivais é perguntar o quê as pessoas sentem ao ouvir a música. As respostas diferem muito do gênero musical e se a pessoa é acostumada com o evento ou está apenas visitando. Separando em dois grandes grupos, as pessoas que já gostam se sentem irradiadas de energia e as que apenas visitam se sentem incomodadas. Eu interpreto isso como se a pessoa precisasse se "sintonizar" primeiro, dando abertura para aquela energia

No wonder when that Metallica or Slipknot rift hits it always makes it easier to pass a super difficult part in a game

metal music is good for my wellbeing but it sure isn't good for my neck

This is so incredibly unspecific. Thrash? Power? Black? Glam? Prog? Viking Folk? Nu? Metal genres as as different from each other as metal is from classic rock.
