Controversial huh?
1. I'd like to see a few homosexual metal bands. Seriously. The music wouldn't have to be totally brutal, but maybe they're all gay, or they sing about gay stuff. It seems that when talking about metal, anything or anyone lesser is automatically labeled "gay". And here I thought I got out of that horrible mindfuck of a vocabulary when I got out of HS.
Anyways, a gay band would be incredibly entertaining... and maybe a little ironic, if they happened to be power metal? The congestion of homophobia in most metal communities is about as bad as a typical LA commute.
2. I hate the NWOBM thats sweeping through the US. Not the bands, but this pseudo-elitism that the europeans were "enjoying" long before us. Theres getting to be so many elitists, its bound to get a little crowded... hard to carry on a conversation with them.
3. Its too bad that Slayer, Megadeth, Metallica, and Antrhax are labeled as the big four of Thrash. They're still revered today, but I think its time people moved on and passed the torch. There were a lot of bands during the 80s that were better, or got better. I respect all 4 of the above, but even Slayer's last release (which I loved) was a big rehash. Most people are caught in one big, fucking loop. Especially the assholes who think knowing 20 or so Metallica songs on their guitar makes them some sort of thrash-playing demi-god. Just about all of them have lost their past luster. Its time people paid a bit more respect to other thrash legends out there that bust their ass at bars and are lucky to get a music video or mention on anything associated with metal on your TV. (Not saying much, I know)
