I am just referring to people in general and myself at one point. Originally, I really did not like metal too much, but after carpooling for around half a year with one of my friends who listens to excessive amounts of metal, I found out that not all of it is that bad. The contrary actually, there is some metal which is actually very good. I digress, though, I was just stating that I believe before someone makes an assertion such that a whole genre of music or anything for that matter is not good, that one should have a sound understanding of that genre first. I just hold dislike for blanket statements because it seems like there are always exceptions if one looks for them. |

Actually if I were to believe the first thing I hear then I would believe they were saying the "f-word," but since people with more knowledge of Japanese than me have explained what it is, I no longer believe that. Last edited by Veoryn87 on Mon Mar 17, 2008 4:20 pm; edited 1 time in total |

Same with me. Originally, I thought they were saying the F-word (I am sure I'm not the only one), but that can be attributed to my lack of knowledge of the Japanese language. I had not known of the Japanese word 不安(fuan), so when they are saying 不安か(fuan ka) in the song my first thought would be to try to understand the word using the language I do know, English. Consequently, the word that sounds most similar is the F-word. But now knowing this Japanese word, I can see how I could have so easily mistaken it; the language I grew up with is dominating over a language I still do not know much about. Also, I am sure the band intensionally used 不安か because it sounds similar to the F-word, so that further drives the confusion. |

K then; here's another one, and another oh look, here's the music video with Japanese subtitles. And they all say the same thing. |

me being japanese does, a kusoga, i'm done with this kuso. Lost cause. In any case, the song kicks a whole lotta ass and has EVERYTHING to do with death note.

How about a photocopy of the official insert booklet lyrics? Does that do anything for you?

I'm still trying to figure out whether the song itself or the images that accompany it are more unintentionally hilarious. It's a toss-up at the moment.

Death Metal is being discussed on ANN? The sky is indeed falling!
I actually knew about Maximum the Hormone before I knew about their connection to Death Note (I wouldn't classify them as death metal though). I thought this was a refreshing step away from the usual J-pop clishés. Now bring on At the Gates, Ensiferum and Anaal Nathrakh! |

I personally like the second opening and ending of Death Note but I like a lot of hard rock/metal songs. I was surprised when I first watched the show to hear an opening and ending like these. There are a few exceptions but for the most part I was used to hearing Jpop songs in openings that were neither memorable or appealing to me.

I know no one is interested in this discussion anymore, but I just wanted to make mention of some degree of metal I can tolerate:
