Post by: Altis on Fri, 12 September 2014, 20:35:34: I'll be Mr. Serious and give you a straight answer...

Metal contains a great deal of white noise. White noise makes people sleepy, and in fact can aid with sleep (provided it isn't too loud).

Also, many great metal bands are highly trained musicians classically, so their material can actually contain advanced musical/sonic qualities. But mostly that it's white noise.
