Hi my name is Lucy, I'm new here, I'm autistic. Anyway, I love heavy metal.
My favourite band is Nightwish (for that don't know who they are, they are fom Finland), they are purely amazing. They have helped me cope with my autism and have helped me create my own new world where I can escape to when the world gets too much for me.
Other metal bands I like:
Apocalyptica
Blind Guardian
Draconian
Ebony Ark
Emilie Autumn
Epica
Kamelot
Leave's Eyes
Midnattsol
Muse
My Ruin
Octavia Sperati
Paradise Lost
Season's End
Sinergy
Sonata Arctica
Symphony X
System Of A Down
Tarot
Therion
Tristania
Visions Of Atlantis
Within Temptation
Xandria
(There are many more)
@Lucie1: thank you, I love that video.
My favourite song off them is Escapist because it represents what Nightwish is all about to me.
I've notcied that quite a few people on the Spectrum like listening to heavy metal, it's amazing!
The actual song to the video is Nemo.
I love metal. (I love many types) and hard/heavy rock (also punk)
(I am showing my age, no new groups - don't know the names ( bad at names!)
Judas Priest
Black Sabbath
Iron Maiden
Ozzy all by himself - all aboard hahahahahahahah
GBH (punk) grevious bodily harm (for moshing) in the day.
Anyone for the trans siberian orchestra?
(I'll admit to liking many genres though, my fave is Zeppelin)
Is this not the poetry ?
Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate
(guitar riff here)
Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned
To rule and control
The media sells it
And you live the role
Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words
Yeah-h
Heirs of a cold war
That's what we've become
Inheriting troubles
I'm mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something
That just isn't fair
Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
Oh that was Crazy train - sung by Ozzy it is "off the rails'!
(Uh oh, me a sister!) don't you know?
Yay someone likes, Leaves' Eyes, Within Temptation and Lacuna Coil.
Aaah metal!
Some of my favourites
Black Sabbath
Iron Maiden
Metallica
Led Zeppelin(maybe that's heavy rock, awesome anyway)
dum dum, duhduhduh, nananananana nahnahnah

Gonna see Iron Maiden in Stockholm in a few weeks, with avenged sevenfold as opening band

okay not to be Mrs. Postalot but thanks for telling me about rhapsody of fire!! I have heard of them, but forgot to look into them. You are absolutely right about the epicness, and I think I am off to buy an album, because that's how I roll.
Just because you just said Mrs. Postalot, I totally heart you! LOL!
(You will know when you become Mr. or Mrs. Postalot, it is at 40 posts a day, when you have to create another account and add "also, too, 2" or another way to say that you are one and the same as the first.)

I would think that your maiden being iron would cause some chafing and/or rusting.
