Get Up and Dance!

Hello.

Thinking about going out to the all-ages club? You won't really be hearing much Top 40 Pop being played on a dance-floor in America. Most clubs play what is sometimes called Industrial... I'd rather call it Metal.
Take Nine Inch Nails, for example... They have lead-strings, rhythm-strings, drums, and a keyboard. Van Halen uses a similar set-up. Nine Inch Nails, and most popular all-ages dance anthem acts, get labeled as weird computer bands. But, this music is more accurately described as Metal. I've heard some of their work.
I used to listen to Public Enemy. I gave up on the band when I noticed most of their music is a sample of popular guitar-work, mixed into a strange-drum line. Public Enemy probably pieces their background track together with computers. I imagine Graceland, when I think about other acts with computer-generated sound...
And, Dance Clubs in America really play mostly Metal!
Have some fun!

Sincerely,

Guess you have a different definition of 'metal'!
