Ayreon - your thoughts?

[Tubbs]

I changed my mind after looking at that thread and seeing it in action, GO LOOK AT IT!

 

[RobbM]

Hey guys, remember now:

 

[Matt]

I wanna join the Shut the Fuck Up foundation. seems like my kinda thing.

 

[Tubbs]

Nobody here is arguing.

What the hell is wrong with you?

no, no, of course not...not to mention going waaaaay off topic on a cool thread, started by non-other than Jax..

 

[Tubbs]

Obviously you didn't notice the joke. You fail.

But I still like you!

 

[Horus]

In other words, Ayreon PWNS.

 

[SilentRealm]

going off topic is what we do.. we will get back on..

when saying certain people in certain groups are closed minded, i think the majority of us would understand its just a trend that has been found and isnt what we think of every person who fits into that category.

I'm an opeth fan and dont consider myself closed minded, nor do i take offense when someone calls opeth fans closed minded because i realise its a general sentiment and not true of myself.

and yes, Ayreon rules

i'm the one who said it, and i'm an opeth fan

Being a close minded opeth fan isnt such a good thing if you decide for your band to branch off from their style. They have major flaws in stuff like repetition especially, and other stuff which i cant think atm. So... yeh thats a great thing about Ayreon, cos .... Arjen's mind is open to new stuff... I guess. lol.

Hey I just had a great idea. How about while we wait for the new SymX album we start on our own Ayreon project?? Everyone on this forum, all combining stuff into one compilation. That would give things around here a bit of a boost seeing as there aint much 2 talk about. Who's in?? Btw I havent had any more thought to this other than what I just said... so i got no ideas how it will work, but i guess it could.

 

[Liquid Tension]

I suppose this is correct.

EDIT: WOW. Check out the Mike and KSE thread there right now, you are absolutely correct.

I don't like Killswitch and to claim they are a younger better looking version of Opeth is pretty ignorant so The guy is getting what he deserves....

How is this proof that Opeth fans are the most close minded?

I find Ayreon stuff to be very similar... Much more then the Opeth catalog is....

Have you even listened to Opeth?

 

[Kenneth R.]

ok, so i was on about their fans, but now you guys are on about the band? Seriously, there is no argument whatsoever there. Killswitch is not a bad band, and if you actually pay attention to Åkerfeldt's comment *and his justification of it* which unfortunately he had to do for idiots who went ballistic, he isn't bashing the band. He doesn't like them, but he respects them. He dislikes the entire premise of modern metal acts that are all over American television,

and you know what, HE'S RIGHT.

Secondly, Opeth >>>> Ayreon.

Proof? None of this is fact or proof. It's just opinions and speculations from various people. In my opinion, the majority of Opeth fans are closeminded and annoying as hell... the kinda people that make me ashamed to be a fellow metal fan. Not nearly as annoying as Pain of Salvation fanboys, tho.

But whatever, I'm getting offtopic as hell, so this is the last post I'll make on the subject.

 

[Tubbs]

Yeah, let's just shut the hell up about this and talk about how cool Ayreon is.

Secondly, Opeth >>>> Ayreon.

For the second time ever, I would have to agree with you again. WOAH!

 

[Horus]

Secondly, Opeth >>>> Ayreon.

NOOO!!!!!!! AAAAHHHHH!!!!! Opeth will NEVER pwn Ayreon!!

 

[Androz]

NOOO!!!!!!! AAAAHHHHH!!!!! Opeth will NEVER pwn Ayreon!!

Opeth was born pwning Ayreon

 

[Tubbs]

Here:

Ayreon ≈ Opeth

Almost equal to!

I wonder if I will successfully manage to confuse someone.

 

[Horus]

I was actually trying to figure out how to do that equal signm but again, too lazy.

 

[Tubbs]

Using windows:

Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Character Map

And uhh...

LET'S GET BACK ON TOPIC
