Yeah, I've gotten that remark before. I can assure all of you, we are deffinately not neo-nazis !
And about the return of classic heavy metal.. all I have to say about that is: hell yeah. I'm sick and tired of these modern screamo bands with satanic lyrics giving me a head-ache(ie: kataclysm, slip knot, silverstein). Time to put singers back where they should be: taking singing lessons.
By the way, I might be a young dude, but my favorite animated movie of all time is Heavy Metal(1981)! Some friends of my dad's actually worked on it and the sound track is great!

Careful about how you go round throwing daggers at other people's music. I'm guilty of it, too. First of all, "screamo" isn't bad if you listen to right stuff. Second, Silverstein and Slipknot are completely different bands. Shane Teal actually has a pretty good singing voice if you listen to some of the better stuff. Also, Slipknot isn't even "screamo." No offense intended on my saying this, man, but that comment makes you sound like a guy who hasn't realized that good music continues to exist beyond the scope of the 1980s, and a bit like one of those "Hate emo for the sake of hating emo" people. That "emo" music scene has spawned a lot of great bands that people sadly overlook because of a stupid negative stigma surrounding the subculture.
Further, you don't need singing lessons to be a good singer. Some people have a natural gift for it. I'm not trained as a vocalist, and I've got a pretty good voice, and my listeners, fans, and friends agree. And I'm not the only one.
