Yeah i know of a couple of bands that just kind of throw words onto paper and hope they Rhyme. Like Dethklok, though I do really like Dethklok. I'd say the best example of lyrics that are actually a lot more like poetry are by Viking Metal bands like Amon Amarth:

I checked it out and you're right. Reminds me of poetry. Nightwish also has some nice lyrics, though I don't really listen to them anymore. The songs with worst lyrics are usually those annoying pop songs. I like some pop songs but some are just.....no comment.
Linkin park is pretty nice too. [flash=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/v/FtnGjBlwwxE[/flash]
This is like a nostalgia-fest here. I haven't listened to H.I.M. in forever.
And your right about the Pop songs. That's why I don't listen to it, or country for that matter. I rarely listen to rap, though when I do it's solely cause it has a good beat. As for Linkin Park, I honestly didn't like Minutes To Midnight. They took out a lot of what made Linkin Park, Linkin Park and it just didn't really like it. What I've Done was decent enough though, though wasn't it a single? Or was it on Minutes to Midnight?

I don't really listen to rap either. I usually don't like it. It was on Minutes till Midnight I think.Some bands just lose quality with time. I liked their older songs better, like "Numb" for example. [flash=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/v/GfrIipujxfQ[/flash]

What's with your younglings and your pansy music? Back in the day we were forced to pick good music. Because instead of your fancy mp3 merbobbers we had to recreate our music with two sticks and a rock and we shared the rock! [flash=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/v/BKz2U4fvA4U[/flash]
Sure, they're old, they're odd! But their music is beautiful! (Mostly)
Want a good song stick with Black Sabbath! Ozzy's always got something good!
Yes I do agree with you about the Black Sabbath. I don't listen to them as much as I used to, but they're still pretty fuckin sweet. As for Velvet Revolver, a lot of their stuff is hit-and-miss for me, some stuff is good, and other stuff isn't. Slither's always been one of mah favorites though.
ALSO! The reason I decided to post back on this was because I wanted to share some Classical-ish! I guess Orchestral, though it's mostly Violin and Cellos .
If you go out in the woods today, you better not go alone... It's lovely in the woods today, but safer to stay at home... For every bear that ever there was, Will gather there for certain because, Today's the day the teddy bears have their Pi~icnic.
