    Biff Byford – “I Don’t Know If We Are Making Another SAXON Album”

    I know what you're saying and I admit that some of their new stuff is good, it's just a shame that they've changed so much. I just miss the old Saxon. They should have just changed their name along with changing their musical style.

    Best Black Sabbath vocalist/era?

    I have to say that without doubt, both the Dio and Tony Martin era are my favourites. I much prefer the melodic and powerful voices of both vocalists, not to mention that the general change in musical style is more appealing for both. I do appreciate the Ozzy era though, as it created doom...

    Biff Byford – “I Don’t Know If We Are Making Another SAXON Album”

    This isn't really bad news in my opinion, as much as I love them. Their new stuff doesn't interest me at all, as it doesn't sound like the Saxon I'm used to. They should have stopped after Power and Glory, ideally. It's nice that Biff wants to do a new project that's more along the lines of...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    Those bands are first wave, which I said I don't count as BM. Why the hell is Slayer added to that? By that logic Possessed are first wave BM XD When I say old school BM I mean 90's bands or at least bands that sound like they're 90's BM. Well obviously even the you're still in the same...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    SomeGuyDude: I'm a girl and the picture in my avatar is of me. So I'm a troll because I'm trying to explain that although BM has it's moments, it's not as good a genre as people here are claiming? Sure... *rolls eyes* This thread is actually supposed to be about CONTROVERSIAL opinions, so...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    Maybe so, but even then it won't have the same status and be as loved as classic rock bands etc I do hope that there are more people who appreciate it on here or I'll lose all hope for this forum *sighs* Mort Divine: Yes I chose to ignore that little comment before as it's utterly retarded. I...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    Sorry, but I disagree. Technically it's music, yes but so is someone screaming at the top of their lungs while banging on some tin cans. BM is barely music, it's noise. No, I think you'll find that I'm right. In 30 years who is really going to talk about BM? No one really. It's bands like...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    I'm saying COMPARED to other genres, it's not music. It's just bad sound quality, screaming and very boring, basic playing of instruments. If I described that sort of BM to someone who had never heard it, I'd doubt they'd be very interested in it. There's nothing to understand, BM basically...

    Couldn't agree more, although I am finding his/her posts quite entertaining XD

    Controversial opinions on metal

    Oh I'm passionate about music too, but at the same time I'm mature enough to listen to criticism without throwing a tantrum. Mucking things up? How exactly? By having a different opinion to yours? Oh I'm sooo sorry your highness... *rolls eyes* SomeGuyDude: I'm referring to the old school...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    I never once said I don't like it, I just said that in order to find the good bands you have to sift through all the bad ones. It's people like you which are the reason I abandoned the scene, as it's full of narrow minded, big headed arseholes. It's just bloody music, Jesus! Talk about...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    That's why I said it GENERALLY all sounds the same ;) Well it's true. A lot of BM is just noise(your posts just confirmed that!), there's not really much talent with going on with those sort of bands. I'd say some of them are on par with the musical quality of punk. There is so much better...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    Mort Divine: I think maybe you should go back and read the posts properly before behaving like such a pompous moron. I never said it ALL sounds the same, as that is absurd! I was generalising and referring to Burzum and Darkthrone clones. Bands like Enslaved, I do like as they do their own...

    Controversial opinions on metal

    But the thing is, in my opinion BM isn't that good in the first place if you compare it with other genres. It's not JUST the image that I find annoying, it's the fact that it generally all sounds the same and there just isn't much there that holds my interest. I don't class BM as real music...
