PsychoΔelica

I agree, with bands that focus more on screams, growls and other hellish noises lyrics are hardly relevant. But calmer bands such as Merry, or MUCC, or 12012,  for example, put a lot more emphasis on the lyrics in varying levels of depth. Unfortunately most of us do have to rely on the translator to get the gist of what the song is about, and even then it can be hard to understand/lose somewhat from the original meaning. But I think there's still room for interpretation.  I wish so many wouldn't just follow the herd.

I find it depends on the kind of heavy/brutal. You can have heavy/brutal without screaming, in which you can make out the lyrics. To some people, it might matter if the lyrics are in a language they can't understand, because if they could understand the language, they could make out the lyrics. But I personally find that when you don't know what they're saying, you can focus on other important parts of the song, because there is so much more to making music than just lyrics.
Then there are the screamers. Regardless of language, you can't understand what they're saying. You'll need to search up the lyrics if you're curious, unless you're a master at understanding screams. I'll admit it's hard to stay immersed in the lyrics while listening to that kind of music, though. That's just how it is.

That reminds me a few awkward conversations. lolol

They tell me I should already be a mom.

Hopefully no 1 day revival announced 6 months in advance

RIP. Damn.
 
If you've never checked out Prince's tunes cause you're young and he was kinda weird by the mid-90s you're doing yourself a disservice.
 
1999 and Purple Rain (among others) are just classic.

^haha. I've wondered (like in that Rides in Revellion pv) if when the models' faces are covered it's really a stylistic choice or if the girl was like 'can we not show my whole face please?'
