Like White Zombie? They fused some funk with some metal.

And I really think when cultivating a sound, don't try and fit it into some genre. Just play what comes to you....let you dictate the style, not the style dictate you.

For example. My band. I set out with the idea to write and play good music....but it turns out, we're a shitty band...so we let our styles blend together and now play bad music.

you have a great point there, i just know that i get alot of that feel when i write so i decided to call it funk-metal. it is only based on riffs i come up with.

hey man, sounds good, but i think it will always be called Crossover-Metal ^^ but if you play exclusively funk-metal, fine ^^

aside from that, you should't give too much about a genre name/definition. too many genre definitions are bad for the scene, if you know what i mean.

we do combine almost every kind of Music including funk and its prettyhard to name this ^^ so we just say "Crossover-Metal".... saying "oriental, funk, punk, polka, pop, heavy-,thrash-,death,power-metal" would be too much ^^

Funk metal isn't really a new concept. <.<

Now Ska metal, THAT would be interesting.

its stupid that now there are so much genres... sometimes hard to name a genre of group. you know, like AC/DC is heavy metal, but what is heavy metal in our times? some people cant call AC/DC heavy metal... becasue of all these genres... its strange.

There is somebody on this site who could ask both of you to change your avatars.xD


Funk Metal?That´s nothing new.
I´m thinking of Rage Against The Machine.
Something like Soft Metal would be funny.^^
