Not all Metal is like that, much of metal is composed and very uplifting from the inside out "calling you to be more". My personal favorite metal composer is Tuomas Holopainen from the band Nightwish. He does not consider himself religious but, does not think it is bad, just the "human interpretation of it is." He admitted years ago that, his parents were part of what he called a "religious cult" and it was not a Christianity or Catholic kind of religious cult. Well to do people and I am sure he saw the abuse as a child. He spends most of his time off the grid and in nature to compose his music and other creative hobbies. Nightwish music vid NOISE, as well as several other songs/vids over the years, leads me to believe he knows what's been going on, he knows.
