Albums that other people love, but you can't get into.

[Blitzkrieg]

What are some that come it mind? I have heard great things about Anthrax's Sound Of White Noise, but after a couple of eager listens I was so bored with it...nothing memorable at all. I will give it another go sometime, but meh. *shrug*.

 

[Southy]

Again, Entombed's Same Difference, it isn't a jumping piont to get into the band, but fuck it is a great album

 

[Winmar]

Meshuggah - Destroy, Erase, Improve

 

[chrisvp]

Oh no Bro , its a classic !!!!!

Meshuggah - Destroy, Erase, Improve

 

[chrisvp]

Meshuggah -everything after Destroy Erase Improve.....I dont know , but that album for me was awesome but the latter stuff just didnt sit well.

 

[Goreripper]

Yeah I agree with that also. Destroy, Erase, Improve was the last album they did that wasn't just pretentious repetitive wankery and bullshit. I'm trying to think of a further contribution to this thread, but I can't right now.

 

[Shadow298]

I just can't get into Meshuggah one bit. No matter how many people rave about them.

Same as Slipknot, Dimmu, Machine Head and a few other of the more popular metal bands.

 

[Winmar]

Oh no Bro , its a classic !!!!!

Hehe I'm not denying that, it's just that I've never been able to get into it! Every song sounds the same as the previous one, though obviously if I really gave it a chance I'd learn the distinctions between 'em all.

 

[Southy]

Alot of BM people reccomend to me I can't get into, all under produced and tinny sounding

 

[Winmar]

Black metal? Yeah I know what you mean. I just like the more symphonic stuff, where the production's a lot better. I'm not very tr00.

 

[AussieTerry84]

I love Meshuggah's album "Catch Thirty-Three" the song "In Death - Is Death" is my fav Meshuggah song of all time now n have has been my ringtone for months

I'm prob finally gonna get Obzen this week which is their new album.

 

[MeKaChrOme]

Sound of White Noise is very good It took a while to grow on me, but to me it's got a really unique atmosphere to the whole album.

Stuff I can't get into: Any Opeth album. Katatonia's "The Great Cold Distance".

 

[Blitzkrieg]

The Great Cold Distance is good, but not one of Katatonia's best IMO. Look forward to seeing what they do next.

I see what the fuss is about with Meshuggah, but it isn't for me. I listened to some of Obzen a while ago, and while the music was really great, the vocals killed it for me. Not enough light and shade, just over the top 100% of the time. Didn't like it.

 

[Southy]

I am trying to think of something recently I didn't like but everyone else seems too, and cannot think of anything of recent times, I bet there is something, just can't think of anything

 

[Sydo]

Blind Guardian.
10 years of trying, I still hate them.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I prefer Demons & Wizards, who are amazing, but BG still do it for me at times.

 

[MeKaChrOme]

Blind Guardian.
10 years of trying, I still hate them.

Bit of a shame, really

 

[FerretallicA]

Helloween - "Keeper of the Seven Keys" parts 1 and 2, "Walls of Jericho"
Megadeth - first three albums
Judas Priest - anything except "Jugulator" and "Demolition" which both rule
AC/DC - "TNT"
Queensryche - Anything prior to "Empire", and partly including "Empire" itself
Iron Maiden - First two albums
Anything by Anthrax - ever.
Sepultura - "Roots"

I hope it's safe enough around here to not even need to mention the likes of Korn, Limp Bizkit etc.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Helloween - "Keeper of the Seven Keys" parts 1 and 2

I agree with you on those, but most of the others I dig.

 

[Goreripper]

That list leaves me aghast, Ferret.
