Imperative Reaction

Welcome back, kids.  Today, we're going to grow a little by fiddling with what we call "metal."  Especially at the borders of a musical style, how we classify that style depends on the set of elements that fits the description of each classification in each of our minds.  Now, I know how much you like it when I ramble on, but the gist is that we learn to like a broader range by choosing to.  So, what are the elements of metal?  Heavy bass lines?  Dynamic choruses and dark lyrics?  Breakdowns?  I'd like you to listen to today's selection (at an obscene volume), going in already thinking of it as metal.  I think you're going to like not being hemmed in; if not, sue me.  No, don't sue me.  It's Imperative Reaction - CRANK IT!
