So is metal really the only direct descendant of classical music?
>>69050126
Metal is dead
obviously not.
this is an odd question and the answers differ depending on what the asker means by 'direct descendant'. i'd say 'contemporary' classical music and some kinds of jazz fit the bill pretty well, although it can't really be denied that a lot of metal possesses a sort of compositional and technical sophistication that resembles classical music. i think the important distinction to draw here is that metal did not evolve from classical music; it evolved mostly from heavy blues and psychedelic rock, and gradually developed a number of elements that resemble classical music more or less independently. metal mostly doesn't operate the way classical music does, with written notation; it's vernacular music with its own distinct vocabulary that is often written collaboratively by the ensemble that plays it.

Can someone explain how every good post punk band came out of 1 fucking county
>>69049676
You can't explain that which isn't true. But long story short, if you have a ton of counties, and a ton of post punk bands, there is more than likely to exist at least one county for which an above average number of post punk bands originate from.
sometimes there is a situation where bands in close proximity will influence each other back and forth and challenge each other creatively
