You could have just told them because they use power chords palm muting technique and minor scales, the minor scales in metal solos and what form the chord progressions is why metal sounds 'evil'

JESUS CHRIST died for you on a cross for our sins. 3 days after his death he resurrected and is The LIVING GOD. Repent from your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior in a prayer and also ask for the HOLY SPIRIT to come into you in that same prayer as well and have FAITH in CHRIST. You could come to Jesus Christ as you are, but once you accept Him, you have to become new, change, and be born again, and turn away from all wicked ways. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God Bless You. JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK SOON.

"I love you man" "no.... I love YOU man" "lets go to a strip club" "alright I thought you would never ask... but let me just get some more of those hot wings (literally all 144 keys of his piano stained yellowish orange and a little sticky) "alright you ready bro?

I finally figured out the tritone. I'ts 3 "whole"tones in a row. This took me 40 years to figure out. I've always been aware of this interval and it's name, but didn't know why it was called a tritone. I finally found some english guy to point out that in the U.S., we call it half steps and whole steps.. In Europe, thay call the same thing half tones and whole tones. So in essence, the tritone is 3 whole steps in a row. That easy. Your welcome.

Because in every scale (every diatonic scale) there is only 1 sequence of 3 notes that is separated by 3 half-steps (semi-tones). Hence, the term 'tritone' -- 3 notes, each one separated by a semitone. And this 3-note sequence (tritone) only occurs once in every scale --- which is what makes it so interesting. I.E. in the key of C major, the notes from F to B is the only tritone sequence possible. Let's see why... The F note to the G note (separated by a half-step) is the first tone, G note to A note (separated by a half-step) is tone #2, and finally, the A note to the B note (separated by a half-step) is the third tone. If we were to try to continue and go from B to C (in the scale of C), nope, can't do it--- there is no semi-tone between -- thus no tritone sequence possible.

E# and F are enharmonic- they sound the same but are not the same thing. For example, the key of F# is F# G# A# B C# D# E# F#. You would not spell it with an F natural at the seventh- the scale would have an F# and anF natural but no E note at all.

I believe the "myth" is true... if you turn the page bacjk 500 years, you will find that it was illegal to move a hymnal from monestary to monestary (where I believe the rumor originally began) and of course, they couldnt have secular people runnig the streets mking songs/sounds only prmitted within the halls of it sacred places... so maybe they put a genberal ban on it? of course I was not there, but I know at least one very famous composer memorized a concert piece that he heard as a young boy... went home and composedi it to paper, and there was a bit of drama over that
