They're all just angry people playing as fast as they possibly can and screaming about how much they hate something. Whether they hate god or themselves, it doesn't matter. It's just screaming.
And I did thoroughly enjoy it. But again, I grew up. Life's too short to be angry.
Have you ever seen them pose for pictures, lookin' all angry and serious? How can you look at that shit and not crack up?

Ooh, we're so scary and hardcore.

No we're angier and more hardcore.

Okay...
well here:
both metal, (and very different ones at that...)
neither talks about being angry or hating anything (nor do they really in any of their songs)
both bands look rather normal...


I mean there are a plethora of bands as you describe but the ones that I come across that keep me interested in the genre are almost never like that.

You think those people in your sig are any different from the first picture?
Just look at it from an outside perspective for just a second. So they do their make up a little different..

Haha. You can stop acting like you know anything and everything about it. It's pretty close minded to think that you're automatically angry if you listen to metal. Plus, not all metal plays as fast as they can. That statement is proof enough that you don't know as much as you think you know about it.
I've seen plenty of other shots of bands that aren't metal looking serious like that.
If you watch live videos of some metal bands a lot of them are even smiling while they play cuz they're having fun.
But if you think all metal is the same, what makes every other music genre so different from each other?

Metal in general is funny and it's not to be taken seriously for the most part. Look at these lyrics for example. How can anyone take this seriously besides for the awesome groove?
You think death metal really wants me to kill people?
You simply do not understand.

Ok, for the most part, they're very similar. There are always exceptions to every generalization.
But I'll leave you guys alone, and stop being a buzzkill.

Oh, what do we have here? Inspirational, non violent metal? Who could of thought.
Of course, Bothhands and Poid will look over this song because it would destroy their stereotypes.

Sorry Jesus 
It's a preference thing I know. I don't care what people like. The point I was making was about people who go around showing they like it obnoxiously by doing vocals out loud in public randomly and bragging about their br00talness, I used to see this kids all the time in high school.
I wasn't complaining about people who like that music, just the people who take it too far and act like they're so special because of the way they look and all that.
Non-conformity eventually becomes a conformity itself.

He's a good singer who can hit damn high notes. I like him, although his voice nowadays is not what it used to be. The lyrics are amazing.
And he's canadian

I recognize his skill, just not my forte 
(my main qualm is that his voice and john petrucci's guitars frequencies overlap, so the vocals do ever so slightly muddy out the guitar )
And john petrucci is well... john petrucci
