I love heavy metal and classical. Both are dramatic and complex. I read the same thing and that's when I came across the neo-classical metal genre which is influenced by Beethoven and the like. It's very good! I also listen to metal covers of classical songs, and vice versa. Funny how I can go from headbanging to Mozart. :)
I suppose people who like metal might like certain classical music.. heavier stuff, Wagner etc.
Other classical stuff has more in common with other sorts of music.. Chopin's chord sequences always remind me of pop songs! Maybe the fans of metal professing a love for classical music is that they consider 'their' kind of music intellectually superior to pop music, so are attracted to classical stuff that way.
Personally I think there are only two types of music.. good and bad, and both come in all genres.
Is it normal that I adore classical music?

I was reading something and it said that there was a connection between hard rock and classical music.

Do you listen to symphonic metal? It's my favorite.

I'm not sure what constitutes all these different genres sometimes to be honest. I may have done. Heavy metal is my favourite type of metal though :)

It's fine. I don't always know the difference, either, lol. But I what I mean is do you like bands like Nightwish, Epica, Within Temptation?

I've never listened to them.
There's a connection between all kinds of music. It's all the same stuff.

I mean the people who enjoy it. Most people who like hard rock or metal tend to really like classical music as well, or so I read.

"I think there are only two types of music.. good and bad, and both come in all genres."
Yeah. I can definitely agree with that.
