Metal goes back to the heavy groups of the late 1960s. Iron Maiden was already in existence by the time of this event (if you were taling “new metal”).

The music industry is dictacting the tastes yet again. And as with newspaper and tv ratings, they wonder why audiences are tuning out.

I was listening to a lot of Black Sabbath in those days. Also there was AC/DC who had been around since the early 70s, not to mention Led Zepplin and others. The death of disco didn't usher in anything that wasn't already out there.

My rural Michigan farm community held Ted Nugent as a resident so we heard lots of that too. Disco just never seemed to catch on where I was. We were heavy matal farmboys.
