Death Metal is really angry heavy metal that has lyrics promoting rough sex, violence, etc-sort of like Nazi rap with metal, and most of it comes from Germany, que sorpresa-not!-it is too way out there for me...

Living in a remote rural area with other old hippies, rednecks and bikers for neighbors is a good thing for an old rocker-you don’t complain when they crank it up and they return the favor-just enjoy your neighbors’ music-maybe yell over toward their place to turn it up if you like the tune...

You're joking, right? You must be joking. In the off chance that you are actually serious, about the only thing you got right was that it's really angry heavy metal.

First off, it's American. There is dispute as to who was the first death metal band, but there is no dispute that it is either Possessed or Death. Both of those bands are American. So are the rest of the pioneers of the genre: Obituary, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Autopsy... (Oddly, most of the original death metal bands are from Florida.)

Secondly, the lyrics do not promote rough sex or violence, and they have absolutely nothing to do with Nazis or whatever Nazi rap is. They lyrics of many of the bands are about violence (not promoting it), much the same way a horror film is about violence (and not promoting it). There are many other topics from politics to religion to science. The band Death has a song about abortion titled "Altering the Future."

I suppose I should stop now as I suspect your post was in jest and it went right over my head... anyway, coincidentally, I saw Morbid Angel for the first time last Saturday, Obituary for maybe my fifth time a week and a half ago, and Cannibal Corpse for the umpteenth time a month ago. They're all still rockin'
