There’s seems to be a lot of these lately 
I think most everything I’d like to say was said in the thread that was linked previously. Some of that would likely apply to you.
And like @ThatBootsGuy, I’ll always shill my thrashology and progology topics lol
Edit: I also just created a metal parent/aggregator topic for the various genre-based topics that the community has created. Its currently pinned at the top of the Music sub-category.
