The next big thing
I think I have stumbled upon what could be the next huge thing to hit the music scene - Reggae Metal. That's right, Guns and Roses meets Ziggy Marley. Go ahead, laugh. People laughed at Rap Metal, but look at the success of bands like Lincoln Park, Limp Bisket and to a lesser extent, Red Hot Chili Peppers. Since they play a wide variety of music. Whereas, Rap and Metal are two distinct types of music that have very different audiences, they share anger and a dislike for authority. Even though many Reggae songs question authority, it does so in a much more mellow manner. Now think how cool it would be if you could inject the anger of Metal music into the grooving Reggae beats. Or couple the sweet sounding lyrics of Reggae with the anger guitar licks of hardcore metal. The juxaposition of these two sounds would be incredible if done correctly. I wonder how long it will be until a new band hits the scene with the power and groove to shake up the music industry. This is going to be bigger than grunge, I tell ya. Just wait. Even if it isn't Reggae Metal, I feel that there is something coming really soon to help us forget about the Brittany Spears and Christina Aguilars of the world. I, for one, am eagerly anticipating it's arrival. More stories from Paul Gavin. Info on novels Paul Gavin's Storefront.

Kind of like Ska Music which sounds like punk with a hip-hop beat.
