contraversial musical opinions

[byrne]

1. Burzum sucks. It is overrated, vapid, go nowhere elevator music created by a guy who's career peaked at Mayhem and was overhyped when he killed Euronymous.
2. All grindcore sucks. It is boring, in your face shit.
3. Anything Garm has ever been involved in sucked.
4. Dan Swano is overrated.
5. People who don't like any Pantera (namely CFH) have ZERO taste in metal, probably don't even really like metal and are too caught up in trends of elitism
6. Most metal is shit. People listen to too many bands just for the sake of saying they have listened to them.
7. Mortal Sin is wicked and I don't understand why no one appears to have heard "Mayhemic Destruction".
8. You are all too concerned about other people's negative opinions
9. Meshuggah is shit, end of story.
10. Dio is overrated. If I wanted to see a dwarf fight a dragon, I'd go see a pantomime of Snow White.
11. At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours, is without question the greatest release of all time.
12. Not enough of you listen to; Danzig, Alchemist, Onslaught, Mounrful Congregation, Massacra, Heathen and Holy Terror (to name a few)
13. Kreator have put on the best live show I've seen
14. As Dark Bliss noted, too many of you place emphasis on the chronological order of releases. As an example, as soon as The Gathering Wilderness came out and was praised, everyone started to say it was great, but immediately said "TSBTC" or "STA" had always been better. But no one had EVER discussed the band before TGW.
15. People who listen to bands because they are more rare, unheard of, underground etc. are faggots.

 

[skeptik]

Mortal Sin is overrated by all Australians.

 

[Belligerent]

Byrne. to your #5. And yes, not enough people listen to Alchemist. Listening to "Tide in,Mind Out" as we speak

 

[Satanstoenail]

Mortal Sin is overrated by all Australians.

Except me.

I think Dodens is a pretentious asshole who knows his stuff but misuses it.

I'm the furthest fucking thing from pretentious. That is blatant bullshit. You just get upset when I catch you saying stupid things. I suppose I could be labeled an asshole though, even though I'm not serious the vast majority of the time, but that doesn't translate well over teh intartubes. But seriously, pretentious? No. And how the hell do you "misuse" knowing a lot of bands?

 

[CF87]

Listening to Obituary and Deicide makes me laugh out loud a lot. Prime examples of acts that get recognized more for being influential, rather than for their actual quality.

ha.

I think Deicide sucks and it's sad much better death metal bands did not get any credit.

I think six Feet Under sucks. I am a death metal fan and find them funny and even laughed when Howard Stern was picking on them(that's how crappy they are)

 

[Alter]

Twilight Of The Gods>blood fire death

Haha. I remember that...even Richard Christy admitted they sucked. Damn I miss that show and the show on E! If Sirius and XM merge like they say im def. buying it.

I was really annoyed when E removed Howard Stern. What the hell else is there to do so late a night besides watch howard stern. The Howard Stern show was like a freakshow.

I remember the one where Richard Christy went out on a few dates with Krystal Steel and she does porn for a living and even he grossed her right out because he's such a weirdo.

hilarious

 

[The Ozzman]

I think St. Anger is a good album
I think The Crusade is an awesome album

E! didnt move Howard... they lost the rights to Howard's Show because Howard moved to another company (Sirius)... As for Howard making fun of 6 Feet Under... what the fuck does Howard know about music anyways? ... I've seen him praise some very shitty bands... from the mainstream and underground... metal and non metal... Howard knows shit... knows even less about Sex... seen him be afraid to touch a beautiful woman's tits on that TV show and he spanks girl's asses like a wimp... doesn't know shit... I used to be a diehard Howard fan till i realized one day... he's stupid...

 

[Life Sucks]

cuz they were from Road Runner records and this albun was produced by Scott Burns

Yeah, they were even on the R/C Death Metal sub-label of Roadrunner. R/C sure didn't last very long.

I hear ya. Instead they play TalkSoup or some gayshit like dat'. It was a ritual:10clock-Stern 10:30-Simpsons. Really miss seeing Jeff The Drunk, my AllTime Favorite of the WackPack. They teamed him up in 1 bedroom apartment with some normal chick and he would shit the bed, smoke bongs, get annhilated on hard alcohol everyday, run out in traffic after leaving the bar drunk and the broad put up with him somehow, still . BTW, Krystal Steel has an AMAZING box.

 

[Fury of the Storm]

Deathcore is good (the only -core genre I can stand)
Dragonforce is good
Children of Bodom is good

 

[Methanium]

1. Slipknot does have some good songs.
2. Megadeth > Metallica.
3. Anything else > Anthrax.
4. Burzum is crap IMO.
5. Drudkh is crap IMO.
6. Dream Theather and Symphony X is crap IMO.
7. Some metalcore and hardcore is good, but the majority is still crap.
8. Slayer is mediocre and overrated.
9. So is Mayhem.
10. And so is Darkthrone.

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Do you even like metal?

 

[Killbot]

Ildjarn is a joke.

Oh yeah, and Agalloch are extremely average.

 

[Christ Illusion666]

U2-Overated
Neil Diamond- Rocks
--------------
Suffocation-Never made a bad album
(NOTE* I didn't want to put Suffo and Diamond together so I made a line out of respect to each other)
Avenged Sevenfold-Hated by "real" metalheads...except me, I like them, ok now I'll go fuck myself.
Hate Eternal- Better than Morbid Angel
Slayer- Only made 1 not-so-good album, but I wont say which one, but it's over 10 years old.
Mayhem- Was better before the suicide.
Cradle Of Filth- Mainstream Black Metal never sounded so good!

[Triton]

Hmm...I don't like Black Sabbath
King Diamond sucks
Children of Bodom is good
Progressive Death metal is the best genre imo
Metallica is very dull imo (Megadeth can actually be fun to listen to)
Green Day and Fall Out Boy suck
Also, I don't really like Death at all...

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

Green Day and Fall Out Boy suck

99% of this board would agree with you, so I am not sure how that is controversial
