Metal elitist? Yeah right... if that were true, then I wouldn't listen to emo, would I?
No, I listen to GOOD music. Something which Lacuna Coil are not. I happen to have at least a slight amount of self-respect, enough not to stoop to such a generic and trite band's level simply to hear a female vocalist that is somewhat good looking. Her voice is weak, the backing band is pathetic, and the male vocals are laughable. I saw a video on Fuse the other day and I almost died laughing. It was absolute garbage. Even when they first came out I simply thought of them as a very lame copy of The Gathering. Mandylion is so much better than anything Lacuna Coil did that it makes it completely worthless to listen to that overrated and pathetic band.
