    We always think of metal as being invented in the 1970's, but back in 1840's Franz Liszt was already rocking!!!

    Just listen to this...

    Stravinskiy? He just created such a beautiful and massive and massively loud ruckus. To me, he's the unaware mother of heavy metal. In raw brutality and power and also naturality. Also a certain kind of primitivity which seems to have carried over into modern music and especially metal :)
