Hello!
TCGAKKIRepair MetallurgyKoyamauchiIs!
Suddenly,
Do you think there is a difference between "meh↑taru" and "meh↓taru"?
I know you may be wondering what I'm talking about right off the bat, but this article is almost like a story, so don't worry.
First of allHeavy Metaland pronounce it "heavy metal".
Next, try pronouncingMetalcore."and pronounce it "metal core".
What do you think?
The intonation of "metal" is different.
Heavy metal" is me↑tal.
Metalcore" is "metal" and "metalcore" is "metal".
I think it is "metalcore".
It's weird to pronounce it backwards.
Is there any difference between those two metals?
No, there are more kinds of metal!"
That is absolutely true.
If I broaden it too much, I lose the point, so I'm just focusing on these two.
Once again, this is a "story. I would be happy if you could read it with a warm eye.
Heavy metal is one of the rock styles that developed from the late 60s to the 70s.
As the name suggests, it has a heavy sound, with lots of riffs, fast playing, etc.
In contrast, metalcore is derived from heavy metal and hardcore and is said to be a mixture of various genres of music.
Both are used when they are separated as broad genres.
I wonder if there is a difference between the two genres.
Are there any differences in the guitars that are often used in each type of metal music?
There are many makers that are often used in heavy metal music, but "Gibson," "Jackson," "Charvel," and "Kramer" are the ones that come to mind.
I have the impression that many guitars are equipped with humbuckers, as well as Floyd Rose, 24F, etc.
How about metalcore?
Ibanez, Schecter, ESP, E-II, LTD, MusicMan, etc.?
There are many more, but let's leave it at this.
Distorting with humbuckers is no different here.
There is a lot of 24F use with a fixed bridge and Floyd Rose.
I have the impression that there are multi-string guitars, long scale, etc. since the tuning is lowered considerably.
What do you think?
I feel that the basics are the same, although there are some changes depending on the trends of the times.
Of course, there are many different types of guitars used by various bands in both genres.
There is no such thing as "heavy metal" guitars being made by this maker, or "metalcore" guitars being made by this maker.
There is no such difference in guitars as meh↑tal or me↓tal.
I use the intonation "me-tal" and "me-delta-tal" to describe the general distinction between metal genres, but this is just my own expression, not a rule.
Please note that when I ask other people what their favorite genre is, if they say "me-tal", it may be "me-tal".
It is very risky to ask "what is your favorite genre" among metallers. is a very risky question between metallers.
I like 00-metal.
"If it's 00 metal, XXX is good, isn't it?
"Isn't that strictly metal?"
What?
It may not be unusual to hear such an exchange.
Let's not do this anymore.
Metallers have been arguing too much with other metallers.
This is metal", "That's not metal", etc.
I think that the conflict between different genres will continue to happen in the future.
However, I would like to enjoy guitar music purely without such disputes.
Let's enjoy metal music with various guitars.
If you do so, new metal music may be born.
