 @likeittacky: I hope it's said as a joke.

But yeah, as much I like metal, or at least some of it, its inherent "percussiveness" just doesn't fit the inherent "flowyness" of riding a mountain bike, except in a rock garden or friday fails, but looking at the props given, or in this instance, not given, I'm not surprised that the average PBer doesn't get that subtleness.

Metal is electric. It's an e-guitar if you will, an assisted guitar, the very thing many PBers abhore when it comes to bikes.
A bike is the opposite, some even talk about "acoustic bikes" if that makes any sense, so it's just you on your bike, in nature.

It's funny cuz' otherwise, both MTB and metal can act as some kind of catharsis to the toughness of life, just, IMO, in opposite ways : MTB in a physical soothing way, metal as more of a mental mood soothing way (unless you're in the pit at a concert of course).

To further drift on this silly comparison, metal could be seen as a way to sooth away from the toughness of life from within life itself, while MTB is a way to sooth this toughness by literally moving away from it, even though you have to come back.

That doesn't mean you can't have a great time listening to metal while riding a bike.
