Who's pretentious now? That does nothing for Beatles fans except make me view them as complete prats, just like the Beatles themselves. I will admit, that's not a good thing to think, but you guys sure don't aid your case.

They weren't so much metal bands themselves but they had a lot of the basic characteristics of later metal bands of whom they influenced. Which is what "proto-metal" means. "Helter Skelter" was a prime example. It was the loudest and heaviest song released by a major band at the time. The vocals were on the near-edge of screaming and the heavy-distorted riffs drove the song.

Near edge of screaming?

You're kidding right?

Heavy distorted riffs.....The Rolling Stones had more distorted riffs than that.

loudest song, that's an irrelevant point since volume is user controlled. I could have recorded a country song louder than that.

Heavy is relative.

I'm fairly certain some Rolling Stones stuff is heavier than that.
