@@m.b.82 there’s catchy metal now too. The meme doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense when there’s tons of metal genres that are so unique you can’t really compare across genre. It’d make more sense if they targeted new thrash vs old thrash or whatever genre you want to target.
I‘m 18. I recognized the first new one (LANDMVRKS) cause a buddy asked me to come along to a concert, but accept that, just the old ones. Funny I suppose
I think it’s too be expected for you to only recognize the old metal. Those songs all topped charts and have had decades to settle into your mind. Also all the new metal they played seems like it’s from a very specific niche of metal that only those who listen to that niche might recognize. This meme doesn’t really illustrate any kind of point.
And a lot of people in the comments that are saying old metal is the best thing ever would have a fit if you told them modern pop was better because it's more popular.
Some of that old metal did not top charts. Some of the music wasn’t popular until the band became better known or were brought onto the audience by another popular band. Just cause those songs are now considered classics doesn’t mean they were always like that, enough said.
Technically speaking, the old ones were more creative, original and talented unlike modern metal which is basically just in 2-chord chugga, chugga breakdown format.
@@DustyEchozy Really? All of newer metal? Every single one of em? Somebody better let Gojira, Rings of Saturn and Mastodon know they're using too many notes.

Only 24 but I still prefer the older stuff. I really haven't heard a lot of metal these days that really impresses me, it all sorta sounds the same now.
I think part of that is the fact that it's like a decade newer than the rest of the older metal music, and while that helps it out a lot, yeah Pantera is still great.
I didn't see very many people saying shit about new stuff. Mostly they all were saying things along the lines of "What the fuck, I'm 20-something but don't know any new stuff; Only old stuff. Am I old?"
I'm an oldhead but a lot of the newer stuff is still tight and heavy. For me, nothing will ever touch Slayer, Fate, Sepultura, or Sabbath, but I'm not going to get in the way of anyone who's keeping metal alive. Just stay heavy and you're good.
Having one of my playlists on shuffle go from Black Sabbath’s bluesy “Planet Caravan” straight into screaming and blast beats on “Sit Stay Roll Over” from Jinjer was a straight up jumpscare lol
I dont know if i would consider modern metal as just Metalcore and deathcore. Both have their good bands. Especially since Metal is incredibly diverse.
Yeah everything they played on the "new" side was just a bunch of lame generic djent shit. They could have played oldschool metalcore, death metal, melodic death metal, power metal, industrial metal, etc.
@@alexabplanalp4455 but that’s the best representation of how most new bands sound. Not all of them, but it seems like every single new metal band that pops up at least starts off trying to chase the metalcore sound, and it’s honestly REALLY boring.

Ngl I prefer the older stuff. Everyone nowadays just tried going as fast as they can go, or just has the same beat with a guitar solo EVERY time. There's still good stuff, don't get me wrong. But it ain't the same as Slipknot's Self Titled or Metallica's Ride the Lightning, or Black Sabbath's paranoid.

I love old school thrash like Slayer and Testament and stuff, but Metalcore and New Wave Of American Heavy metal is just too good to turn down. Sadly the song choices for new metal was pretty bad
The irony in seeing all these boomers shitting on modern metal when the video did absolutely nothing to showcase the tons of unique sounding metal we have these days. Like, Gojira? Mastodon? Dream Theater (mainly modern albums like Systematic Chaos)? Between the Buried and Me? Trivium? Lamb of God? That's just a few bands in the modern era of metal, there's still a lot more to list off.

Dream Theater isn’t really modern also I like how you say “these boomers” when from what I’ve seen it’s usually metalheads in their late 20’s-mid 30’s that listen to a lot of newer sounds while teenagers seem to listen to a lot of older bands (most likely because they’re easier to get into and get you respect in the metal community a lot quicker
Can y’all stop having a stupid fight over which is better. Both are amazing for different reasons. New for the speed and overall aggressive vibes. BUT old for the CHUGGING rawness and thanks too oldies the new could develop. both equally brutal 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥 METAL IS AWESOME! 🖤
@@aquablue666 Dude, things are not one and the same. Equality does not exist. There are things that are objectively better or worse than other things. Accepting that and that other people may know something better than you, is being "open minded".
I agree. I don’t know too much about all the artist and whatnot when listening to bands, but I listen to just about anything as long as I like the song. There are songs in this video that both sound cool to me, and there are probably a few new metal songs in my playlist, but I don‘t even read dates of when certain songs came out, however most of my rock/metal playlist is well-known old stuff too I think, but idk. (I admit tho I would eat up all of these new metal songs in this video because I think they sound good)
Maybe because the “new” metal here is from the last decade or so, the “old” metal is from 5 or so decades. If they only chose 80s metal, or 90s metal or whatever, it would also sound largely very similar.
@@Elis_Gallacher Yeah, but in the 90s we had a lot of different genres to choose from. Today I only see 3 things showing up. Power Metal, Death Metal, and those Djent variations. Even the most traditional thrash bands sound a lot like djent or death nowadays.
@@talkysassis I’d say it’s more diverse rn. In the 90s, unless you counted really underground stuff, it was nu-metal, some death metal and some of the grunge bands, like Soundgarden who had a metal-like sound. Now you have all the metal/hardcore mixes (ya know, deathcore, metalcore etc.), all the djenty Meshuggah wannabes, power metal seems to be coming back (for better or worse), all those weird bands that have the folk music in it, more prog-y bands are appearing as well etc. Edit: I guess you could say that Hardcore was quite big during the 90s as well, and had a heavier sound at that point compared to earlier hardcore, but it wasn’t exactly metal.
@@Elis_Gallacher I disagree with 90's similarity, especially in comparison with today's situation.I will try to avoid genres and mainly name bands. 1) 90's still had some thrash with Metallica's Black Album and other bands doing more accessible thrash albums at the same time. 2) Black Metal bands like Emperor and Immortal immerged at that time and still the whole genre sounds about the same. 3) Grunge is way more diverse than it seems. Alice In Chains are quite different from Pearl Jam and Mother Love Bone. The genre was not as long-standing but brought tons of good unique acts. 4) New Metal is the most diverse metal genre ever. Korn's first record sounds way different from Mudvayne or Deftones. There were some cringe acts like Crazy Town or others, but yet it is the most commercially successful metal period and I believe it's due to its diversity and lack of gatekeepers. 5) Industrial metal. Hardly can put Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein and Ministry in the same genre, but for the sake of the list let be it. 6) Unique acts that I can't put in any genre category: Type O Negative, Life of Agony, Rob Zombie, Pantera, Static-X, Tool, Filter, Dream Theater, Rage Against the Machine, Helmet. 7) Oh I forgot, hair metal was still around. Guns n Roses did their Use Your Illusion and Skid Row pulled Slave to the grind in 1991. Though it is more of 80's yet still some of those bands were huge in 90s. 8) Post Hardcore and original Emo started at that time. I gotta give credit to a different time when MTV was the main source of music for the majority of folks, yet it managed to give exposure to a huge amount of great artists. Nowadays with streaming, I find myself hesitant to listen to new music just because it's incredibly hard to find originality among new metal acts. Everybody is following the formula set by a more successful band to the point when you can't distinguish their sound from each other. Hell, the whole 10's scene genre was a knockoffs of either Asking Alexandria or Bring me the Horizon. Gotta mention how both of before mentioned bands lost their identity completely after a few albums. Besides, nobody is looking for their sound hard enough. I have to mention that pantera did 3 failed albums before having their breakthrough and most people don't even know about those 3 albums, tho they can be found on youtube. Not even music, look how every metal band look like, 5-6 dudes in black t-shirt standing like dorks in the photo with zero characters and personality. This year's deathcore revival Lorna Shore is great and I get it the track went viral, but it's the same guitar masturbation thing I've heard hundred times before. Also, I find it ironic how we see new young starting bands when in reality a lot of them have been around for 10 years. There was a hope of some fresh breath into metal about 5 years ago, when trap metal started to show up more and more, but I think it failed in the same copy-paste mistake as other genres nowadays. I can only mention the last two of Ghostmane's records as something interesting, yet it's heavily influenced by NIN's Downward Spiral. I will repeat it, but I believe that people lost a sense of creativity in music lately. Instead of setting trends, bands try to follow them hoping to get some of their songs to go viral and make them famous for the next two weeks and not seeing how the fan base build-up works at all. Every band is trying just to make music as fast as they can just to get a single to this month's metal playlist to get some royalty to pay their bills. It became a milking job and ppl are complaining about why nobody listens to the metal nowadays.
@@Jagersz Hair metal and thrash was dying off, Black was barely thrash. I already mentioned the Grunge bands, and we’re talking about metal, so Mother Love Bone and Pearl Jam shouldn’t really be part of the conversation. I don’t think you can mention the one off bands like Type O, since their whole genre wasn’t big, it was primarily Type O and a couple of other bands Edit: People followed trends back then too. Someone did hair metal, so did everyone else, someone did thrash, then all the other bands too. Korn lowered their bass tone and started using 7-strings, so did everyone else etc. Pantera existed, everyone wanted to sound like them.
Either one can be good or bad depending on one's personal preference and what ever criteria you're using to compare the two. Personally, I think there's no such thing as "bad" metal. It's a very versatile and sometimes experimental genre. That's what makes it good and keeps it interesting.
Both are good, but comparing the two it feels like completely different genres, the people that like one kind is not so likely to like the other kind, thing that is weird as it's all under the same label of metal
that's cause it is two different genres pretty much. the new stuff played was all modern metalcore songs and the old stuff was thrash/heavy metal songs
@@Gamorou And metal still gets put under the even broader label of "rock". The names for the different metal genres exist exactly to represent the very large difference you see.
Damn why are all of these people in the comments arguing about which era is better how about we just shut the fuck up and enjoy both of these eras of music because both of them are good in their own way.
I'm not a big fan of the gutteral throat singing, but I appreciate the musicality of the newer bands. I have to admit though, it does sound a bit repetitive to me. In the end, it's still Metal and that's all that matters.
Real metalheads don't disrespect metal based on its age. Don't pick on the roots, understand that you wouldn't have what you love now without it. Make a playlist of these songs in that order, I need some new listening material.
I just spent 30 minutes telling people who say old metal sucks to go listen to Ironman or Trooper @@hollienn2006 and people who say new metal sucks to listen to stuff like Night witches, Kai tangata or Dana Dan XD
Because they’re all from the last few years. The “old” ones are from like 5+ decades. If you only took metal from, let’s say the 80s, it would sound largely the same. They also played different styles of metal for the “old” ones, the “new” were pretty much only death- and metalcore.
there's so many diff subgenres of metal its slightly weird comparing deathmetal(or heavy metal etc) to classic metal/non screaming metal cause if we talk about soad or cannibal coprse theyre sort of old too, like 90's not SUPER old, but still sort of old :D on top of the fact there's also alot of old bands of OTHER subgenres cause metal is all in the intstrumentals you shouldve included helter skelter by the beatles, they made the first metal s o n g
I don't know nothing about metal. But the old ones sounds better because they sound more like they have a "shape" instead of loud guitar noises and screaming.
@@leadiodide8243 then it's your taste, man. I'm not gonna shit on what you listen when i pass from Los Palmeras to Jesse & Joy to Slipknot to Eminem to Resident Evil Soundtrack.
I stay in early 2000s very late 90's because the new stuff has alot of screaming and the old stuff isnt enough in my opinion and the early 2000s are perfect in my opinion

Nowadays with streaming, I find myself hesitant to listen to new music just because it's incredibly hard to find originality among new metal acts. Everybody is following the formula set by a more successful band to the point when you can't distinguish their sound from each other. Hell, the whole 10's scene genre was a knockoffs of either Asking Alexandria or Bring me the Horizon. Gotta mention how both of before mentioned bands lost their identity completely after a few albums.
Besides, nobody is looking for their sound hard enough. I have to mention that pantera did 3 failed albums before having their breakthrough and most people don't even know about those 3 albums, tho they can be found on youtube.
Not even music, look how every metal band look like, 5-6 dudes in black t-shirt standing like dorks in the photo with zero characters and personality.
This year's deathcore revival Lorna Shore is great and I get it the track went viral, but it's the same guitar masturbation thing I've heard hundred times before. Also, I find it ironic how we see new young starting bands when in reality a lot of them have been around for 10 years.
There was a hope of some fresh breath into metal about 5 years ago, when trap metal started to show up more and more, but I think it failed in the same copy-paste mistake as other genres nowadays. I can only mention the last two of Ghostmane's records as something interesting, yet it's heavily influenced by NIN's Downward Spiral.
I will repeat it, but I believe that people lost a sense of creativity in music lately. Instead of setting trends, bands try to follow them hoping to get some of their songs to go viral and make them famous for the next two weeks and not seeing how the fan base build-up works at all. Every band is trying just to make music as fast as they can just to get a single to this month's metal playlist to get some royalty to pay their bills. It became a milking job and ppl are complaining about why nobody listens to the metal nowadays.

Hair metal and thrash was dying off, Black was barely thrash.
I already mentioned the Grunge bands, and we’re talking about metal, so Mother Love Bone and Pearl Jam shouldn’t really be part of the conversation.
I don’t think you can mention the one off bands like Type O, since their whole genre wasn’t big, it was primarily Type O and a couple of other bands
Edit: People followed trends back then too. Someone did hair metal, so did everyone else, someone did thrash, then all the other bands too. Korn lowered their bass tone and started using 7-strings, so did everyone else etc.
Pantera existed, everyone wanted to sound like them.
Born in '93. It's awesome to be in the middle and enjoy everything
Either one can be good or bad depending on one's personal preference and what ever criteria you're using to compare the two. Personally, I think there's no such thing as "bad" metal. It's a very versatile and sometimes experimental genre. That's what makes it good and keeps it interesting.
Only bad metal is the shit that’s sold out and lazy. Ie parkway drives new album 😂
Saint anger was bad Metal
Don't compare them, enjoy.
One can do both.
Humans function that way.
Bro really picked the worst examples of new metal 💀
Both are good, but comparing the two it feels like completely different genres, the people that like one kind is not so likely to like the other kind, thing that is weird as it's all under the same label of metal
that's cause it is two different genres pretty much. the new stuff played was all modern metalcore songs and the old stuff was thrash/heavy metal songs
@@katrianna3712 The thing is, everything is still within the label of metal
@@Gamorou And metal still gets put under the even broader label of "rock". The names for the different metal genres exist exactly to represent the very large difference you see.
Damn why are all of these people in the comments arguing about which era is better how about we just shut the fuck up and enjoy both of these eras of music because both of them are good in their own way.
Cause new metal is as good as a razor blade on your dick
Exactly
I'm not a big fan of the gutteral throat singing, but I appreciate the musicality of the newer bands.
I have to admit though, it does sound a bit repetitive to me.
In the end, it's still Metal and that's all that matters.
Everyone will prefer the old party! You can be aggressive, deep, goofy, sexy, cool at this kind of party! Old School Metal is the real deal.
Well then I guess I'm not everyone
Real metalheads don't disrespect metal based on its age.
Don't pick on the roots, understand that you wouldn't have what you love now without it.
Make a playlist of these songs in that order, I need some new listening material.
Grew up with the olds, but the chugs of metalcore are just immaculate
I'm typically a new metal guy but Got The Time is always gonna get me fucking pumped. I LOVE ANTHRAX
Originally written and performed by Joe Jackson.
For a new wave/post punk performer, the guy could definitely " bring it".
@@beeragainsthumanity1420 indeed
And where among the old metal Rammstein there Du Hast for example, or Sehnsucht Mmm....
Or Mutter or older Laichzeit, such a classic.
Lol you're calling Rammstein old metal? Stupid children.
I discovered a song I like with this video that contains plenty of modern metal.
Iron Man by Black Sabbath
It’s all good. Like what you like. To me, no songs give me the chills like the classics though, especially Dimebag’s
“Becoming” riff
And it's all good
Old metal ain't heavy enough now. Sorry but I had to say it.
Enjoy the new stuff while respecting the old stuff, that's what I do
Gotta say, I like the older stuff quite a bit more
Am I the only one who likes both?
Да
nah. both are fire!
@@PeoplecallmeLucifer Finally someone who agrees 🤘
I just spent 30 minutes telling people who say old metal sucks to go listen to Ironman or Trooper @@hollienn2006 and people who say new metal sucks to listen to stuff like Night witches, Kai tangata or Dana Dan XD
Vibing to all

The fact that the new ones sounded identical one to each other...
Because they’re all from the last few years.
The “old” ones are from like 5+ decades. If you only took metal from, let’s say the 80s, it would sound largely the same.
They also played different styles of metal for the “old” ones, the “new” were pretty much only death- and metalcore.
Nah fam enjoyed both
I like both
I like 90s 2000s metal
Love both depending on The bands
there's so many diff subgenres of metal its slightly weird comparing deathmetal(or heavy metal etc) to classic metal/non screaming metal
cause if we talk about soad or cannibal coprse theyre sort of old too, like 90's
not SUPER old, but still sort of old :D
on top of the fact there's also alot of old bands of OTHER subgenres
cause metal is all in the intstrumentals
you shouldve included helter skelter by the beatles, they made the first metal s o n g
I don't know nothing about metal.
But the old ones sounds better because they sound more like they have a "shape" instead of loud guitar noises and screaming.
Indeed, Rammstein have a lot of that, music with shape and melody
what if ... thats exactly the reason I like modern metal
@@leadiodide8243 then it's your taste, man.
I'm not gonna shit on what you listen when i pass from Los Palmeras to Jesse & Joy to Slipknot to Eminem to Resident Evil Soundtrack.
That's the deal most people say about modern metal. And I agree completely
RIFF
I love how this is
What we think as metal but Metal Archives doesn't vs What we think as metal and Metal Archives does too.
The funny thing is that there was a time when the Old Metal was the New Metal and there will be a time when the New Metal is the Old Metal...
Going full meta in the comments fam
"Old metal" is just metal and it's always there. "New metal" is what floats on the surface for two weeks before sinking with no trace.
Is this really how I found out that Megadeth has a fire cover of Paranoid??
Me too hahahaha
Old wins in every case here. By virtue of letting me not only keep my ears but use them to hear what they sing.
Both are good
Don't mind me, I'm just here getting caught up to speed on the metal music scene.
I stay in early 2000s very late 90's because the new stuff has alot of screaming and the old stuff isnt enough in my opinion and the early 2000s are perfect in my opinion
ngl, old metal is great but the new stuff does pack a bigger punch
And both are great (old metal is consistently fantastic, new metal can be…especially for the gym)
I'm a really big fan of both
Old stuff is good, but newer is also, since is inspired by the old.
Got the time is a smart closer...
Let be real the old guys are top of the do not mess with list
ok the pantera one made me feel old
Glam pantera>>>>>>
I still like both, although I miss the scratchy rock voices, and the variety, since today only pure scream and very few raspy voices are heard
I think that in our culture we actually keep friendly with old ones and new ones 😁
I don't know any of the new ones
Missing out
Modern Metal Sounds very similar for me
Because you know nothing about it poser
