   Well, i for one am not a "straight metalhead" - i listen to a pretty 
   wide range of music - among my favorites are Green River, Einsturzende 
   Neubauten,Big Black, Cat Butt, Mudhoney, and Sonic Youth.  And if you
   are a big metal fan looking for other stuff, i cannot recommend strongly
   enough GREEN RIVER - this band is awesome (and broken up :-( ) - they
   have put out 3 albums; Come On DOwn (on homestead),l and Dry As Bone and
   Rehab Doll (on Subpop) - listen to dry as a bone, and hear som eof the most
   driving, intense rock you'll ever hear (baby takes and this town in part-
   icular).  If you like them, check out anything on subpop - you wont 
   regret it.  As far as new metal goes, check out the Melvins on Boner Records
   - their new album is called Ozma - it's slow, but really heavy and crushing.
   I also listen to alot of punk and hardcore (though mostly on my local radio,
   so i'm not very conversant with individual bands - although Poison Idea
   and NoMeansNo are worth checking out).  Anyway, i can't come close to 
   describing all the different bands i listen to in a short message like 
   this, but anyone who wants to know more about any of this, feel free to 
   reply...be warned, however, as far as my metal taste goes, i'm primarily
   into thrash and speed metal (esp. Slayer & Metallica), and i somewhat 
   dislike "heh-Vee Fuckin' Metal" like kiss and G'n'R (IMveryHO poseurs)

   later, yalls
