Simply saying that heavier=better is quite a big fallacy, viewing it as this: Why is pop so soft? As for true head banging rockers, for them, yeah, I'd see how heavier always wins out. Hence was born death metal, black metal, etc. However, back to my former point; My favorite song by FFDP is actually Wrong Side of Heaven. FFDP remains to be the only band capable of mixing sadness with heavy sounding beats. As far as Hollywood Undead goes (I can see I'm alone in THAT boat...), it's a rapcore/rock. Incredibly light for my tastes. However, they, too, manage to mix sadness with anger via music. So, I state this again, I don't need to know all the heaviest bands from the 80s so I can get GARBAGE tattooed across my head (get the reference?), I just need stuff to make me feel anything. Most music can't. Raperock is just another name for Shockrock coined by The Mentors for their rape-based lyrics.
