* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Usually most bands under alt-metal tend to be in the 7 range, with the more alternative bands at level 6 and the more metally bands getting up to 8. Due to its eclectic nature however, songs can be literally anywhere on the scale, for instance Music/DirEnGrey and Slipknot are both capable of surpassing an 8.
