My favourite music

I listen to heavy metal music. I mostly play in the air while listening, but sometimes also play them on guitar. Some of my favorite sub-genres include death metal, progressive death metal, black metal, melodic death metal and the list never ends. I am always interested to discover new metal music. Feel free to send me your favorite songs .
