Given the weirdness of the game, I am sure we'll end up getting GWAR and Lordi, that's for sure. The weirdness of those acts just seems to fit the Sims quite well. Of course, especially in the case of the former (and might I add, I've been at odds with some of the views they have expressed in their songwriting), the themes and beliefs expressed may be at odds with The Sims. And, uh, Lordi did win the Eurovision contest once. While a bit on the macabre, it doesn't get political as GWAR often has done.
A lot of the metal today gives me the impression of someone trying to flush a flip-flop down their toilet. In other words, nothing ; irritates me more than the post-hardcore movement. While many often have harsher vocals, I like metal that seems to focus a bit more on more technical guitar playing. Pretty much, what I listen to leans more towards melodic death metal, progressive metal, power metal, and thrash. Mostly, more towards hard rock when it comes to older acts. I am hoping that in addition to acts known well in the USA, they do some acts more known in Europe. To tell the truth, that's most of what I do listen to, along with a lot of Megadeth, Metallica, Dream Theater, and other acts well known here.
