Bands you like that everyone else hates

[Chimaera]

Pretty self-explanatory. What bands do you personally like that most other metal fans hate with a passion. They don't neccessarily have to be metal bands.

I think we had this topic before.The guilty pleasure thread is what I am talking about.

Oh... okay.

 

[JGMetalhead]

Should of been obvious to you but w/e. Alot of people make these mistakes.

 

[Tennyson]

I think it's quite different. Posting in the guilty pleasure thread you are either admitting to some level of self-proclaimed guilt about liking a band (which is lol) or it has to be prefaced with "well i don't feel guilty about it but..." which is fucking gay because many times the reasons people don't like certain bands is cuz they are image-obsessed faggots. with that being said:

Children of Bodom
Avenged Sevenfold
System of a down
sonata arctica

^Agreed. There is a difference between liking something you know is bad (guilty pleasure) and liking something that other people don't. In the broader musical context most metal could be classified as something that you like that other people don't.

 

[Eligos]

I'd say Wolves in the Thone Room.

 

[Savern]

Sonata Arctica
Opeth
Porcupine Tree
Iced Earth
Dream Theater
CoB
Wintersun

 

[Belligerent]

Opeth
Porcupine Tree

These are the only two i can think of atm.

 

[Lateralus14]

Opeth

Also Porcupine Tree and Funeral Mist but I haven't listened to either hardly at all in the last 6 months or so.

 

[Eligos]

Everyone hates Porcupine Tree? I think they're pretty great.

 

[Savern]

Well they don't get talked about massively, but usually whenever they get mentioned lots of people trashtalk them.

 

[Badbird]

I think Porcupine Tree is a great band.Didn't think they were hated around here.

 

[Belligerent]

Everyone hates Porcupine Tree? I think they're pretty great.

One of my favorite bands tbh. Seems they get mixed opinions on here.

 

[Eligos]

I listen to them when I'm chilling out/going to sleep. So relaxing.

 

[Lateralus14]

Their last two deserve a little trash-talking relative to the ones before them though, tbh.

 

[Belligerent]

I listen to them when I'm chilling out/going to sleep. So relaxing.

Anytime of the day is good for me. Their discography has something to offer for almost anyone.

 

[redscot]

Sonata Arctica
Opeth
Porcupine Tree
Iced Earth
Dream Theater
CoB
Wintersun

Opeth/Porcupine Tree get trash talked?

As others have said, I'd be surprised if PT get trashed. Either way, both are amazing.

 

[Badbird]

This Porcupine Tree talk has make me want to listen to their music again.

 

[The Ozzman]

Should of

Really?

REALLY?!
