What is death metal? Might deafness be desirable if it was playing?

victauria · 10-17-2012, 08:37 PM

Here is the gist: Death metal is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal music. It typically employs heavily distorted guitars, tremolo picking, deep growling vocals, blast beat drumming, minor keys or atonality, and complex song structures with multiple tempo changes.

Can we agree that a cat (and many who live with cats) would prefer deafness?

Bookpossum · 10-17-2012, 11:48 PM

Definitely, unless there is an alternative?

(A cat's favourite music has to be Claude Debussy.)

Solitaire1 · 10-18-2012, 01:40 AM

Why would cats prefer Debussy over Gershwin? Would cats like ABBA or music from the musical "Cats"?

Bookpossum · 10-18-2012, 03:34 AM

Do you think it could be because of his name (which they think means them), or because it's usually very peaceful when going to sleep?

(Gershwin wrote "Walking the Dog" so they might not like him. ABBA might be a bit too bright and bouncy for sleeping through, and "Cats" ... well, maybe. What does the Samurai Kitten think?)

I don't know what Samurai Kitty thinks but my chihuahua Fang says, in the greater scheme of things does it really matter?

Cats are, well, im-purrfect, while me the chi, aren't I really more important in the
world order?

Are we now starting a dog versus cat debate?

Bookpossum · 10-18-2012, 08:27 AM

Would a phoenix versus chicken debate be safer territory?

red_phoenix · 10-18-2012, 08:43 AM

Is debating supposed to be safe?

Who let the dogs out?

Why did they let the dogs out?

victauria · 10-18-2012, 09:36 AM

Aren't there several good reasons to let dogs out?

74Cuda · 10-18-2012, 09:46 AM

Doesn't everyone with dogs know the answer to that?

red_phoenix · 10-18-2012, 09:50 AM

Does it depend on where they were to start with? What if they were in a fenced yard?

74Cuda · 10-18-2012, 09:53 AM

Wouldn't you let them out of the fenced yard to go for a walk?
