Controversial opinions on metal

[Karmablade]

not catchy enough dude

if nile is ANYTHING its catchy, catchy, aggressive and emotional, music that touches the soul.

only catchy thing about Nile is the papyrus containing the spell to preserve its possessor against attacks from he who is in the water song title.
You sound like a fucking Nile fanboy. No wait, that was Sepultura.

 

[LuminousAether]

Nile sucks almost as much as Sepultura.

how is it a gimmick and who have they copied? they are one of the most original death metal bands ever.

The Egyptian theme is a pretty big gimmick.

 

[Slayed Necros]

The copycat remark was probably directed towards Sepultura. Which leads to the question, who were they copying during the Bestial Devastation/Morbid Visions era?

Why all the hate for Nile? Their musicianship and technicality is great. Just because their music isn't "catchy" enough (lol) doesn't mean they suck...

And as far as their Egyptian theme goes, I would say it is pretty damn original. It sure as hell isn't cliched.

sepultura? sepultura had an original sound and released the best thrash albums ever.

Nile is no where near catchy bro ..... and they fucking rule!

 

[Karmablade]

Nile is no where near catchy bro.

they are man, how come i think they are extremely catchy?

 

[challenge_everything]

Saying nothing about whether they're good or bad, Nile is one of the last bands you'd use the word 'catchy' to describe. Nile aren't trying to be catchy FFS!

And you say someone's got shitty taste?

 

[The Ozzman]

Nile should rename themselves Bile, because that's what comes up my throat when I listen to them

 

[Episteme]

I love how you guys decide to start flinging shit at Karmablade even when he's done nothing recently lol.

man... if you arent catchy you will NOT be succesful, all succesful bands are so BECAUSE they are catchy, morbid angel, slayer, metallica, nile are ALL catchy, thats the REASON for their success, they have songs and riffs that STICKS to ones head and are GOOD.

No, it's a gimmick. See, at Nile's core, they are a very generic band with absolutely zero to call attention to them outside of the obvious Egyptian gimmick, which is a pure facade and is pretty much throw-away.

And Sepultura are obviously trend-hopping rip-off artists. Sorry if you can't see that. I'd say you are blinded by bias.
