Some times, but only. I'm not really into metal, I have friends who are (and play metal) so I do hear allot of it. I'm more into hardcore, so for instance I saw madball (if you know who they are) on Sunday. What I listens to really ranges, from hip hop (like gang star and zion I) to pop punk, to classic rock, to hard-core. I'm also known to get down on some funk and jazz too.........^^ So that's what you listen to when you are hauling all of you "stuff" deep into the woods?
