    Who's The Most Overrated Metal Band

    MacMoney: Yeah. I think metal is all about being technical, otherwise metal bands would ditch double bass drumming, fast guitar solos, soaring melodies, and complex time signatures, elements which most (if not all) "nu-metal" bands DON'T have. :) Nocturnal Emperor: Yeah you're right, you got...

    Who's The Most Overrated Metal Band

    Cradle Of Filth Mayhem Venom Dummy Burger and many other "troo", "kult", "evil" BM bands :) IMHO, bands can be considered overrated if they are totally UNTALENTED yet continue to grab all the attention(examples of which are mentioned above). So I think Opeth, Arch Enemy, Meshuggah, and...

    Guitar Questions!!!!

    Hmmm...nobody seems to like Ibanez guitars in here....:) IMHO standard Ibanez models (especially the RG and the S series) offer the best bang for the buck. Also, the LoPro Edge locking tremolo hardware beats the shit out of the original Floyds; they are more stable because the tremolo plate is...

    Most Overrated Metal Band

    Cannibal Corpse is not overrated. They deserve the attention they get because they know how to play their instruments. People who say they're overrated are just SOURGRAPING because their fave bands like Mayhem and all those atmospheric-black shit can't play decent riffs to save their lives!!! :D

    Most Overrated Metal Band

    Mayhem is fucking over-rated! Sure they're probably the most influential bm band, but their music just sucks. The riffs are too simplistic, Euro can't do a single fucking decent lead, etc.etc. I agree: they got known just because of their "hobbies", and not bcoz of their talent(?). Same goes for...

    Distortion Pedals

    The SansAmp GT2 is by far the best I've ever used. GodslasheR's right it ain't noisy at all, good punch for solid leads. Recommended setting: Center - HiGain - California; Level = 40; Bass = 100; Treble = 70; Drive = 70 :rock: As for the Metal Zone...it SUCKS! I used to own one, pretty...

    metal scene in the Philippines?

    Heck! I don't give a rat's ass if a metal band is religious, Christian or Satanic or whatever. As long as they write meaningful, sensible, and honest lyrics and play really well, they're alright with me. Tell me, goregoat, if Arcturus, Cannibal Corpse, Pig Destroyer, or Deicide had different...
