I've been a fan of metal since I was 8, when my brother introduced me to Metallica and Megadeth via Metallica's self-titled album, and Megadeth's "Countdown to Extinction" album. After this, I kind of went with whatever my brother listened to for a while. And when I was 9, he showed me Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. After this, I started using the internet regularly and at the age of 10, I got to listen to bands I found on my own. And today, at the age of 13, my favorite bands (metal bands, at least) are Anthrax, Municipal Waste, Toxic Holocaust, Judas Priest, Torture, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Razor, Overkill, Nuclear Assault, Slayer, Alestorm, Metallica, and Dethklok.
