If you think this place is backwards, go post about metal here:

Sorry that I like bands with technical merits and creativity.

None of the bands you like are creative.

If you were to have a female companion, would she even have the chance to give you oral with how often you felate yourself?

You know this place is Fucking backward compared to any other metal community ever.

In what way? There's people of all kinds here.

Correction...

What kind of credibility does anyone really need to post outrageously stupid shit on the internet.

Not just this thread, stupid shit all over the fucking internet.

No it isn't. At least any internet metal community. This forum isn't any different than any other metal forum I've ever been on.

Is there such a thing as Ninja metal? Ninjas are cool.

Didn't know that Tokyo Blade had a less metallic branch-off. That song actually sounds pretty good.

Some nice guitar work for sure... not sure about rockin' the perm haircut though..

Pestilence - Testimony of the Ancients is their best album and thats saying allot considering how much I love albums like Malleus Maleficarum and Consuming impulse.

Dead (RIP) was a shitty vocalist but has a cult following because of his personal life and habits and of course blowing his brains out (i gotta admit I was a fanboy back in the day for these reasons).
Attila´s vocals on De Mysteriis dom sathanas are the best vocals ever to grace a black metal album. \m/

Necrophagist - Onset of putrefaction deserves all the notoriety it gets and more. Cant say the same for Epitaph although I do like it.

Yngwie Malmsteen is repetitive as fuck but still deserves the status he enjoys. \m/

Spiral Architects vocalist suits their music perfectly. I dont care if most poeple are turned off by his vocals.

Dissection - Storm of the lights bane is amongst the 5 best black metal albums ever.

The Crown - Hell is here is their best album

Immolation have matched and by far surpassed Morbid Angel.

Not controversial, unfortunately.

 

[Bled & Dead]

Not controversial, unfortunately.

you may be right but many feel Consuming Impulse was their best.

 

[Bled & Dead]

And I could say the opposite. LotR is the most boring book ever written. Even Twilight has more well-rounded and realized characters with believable motivations and personalities.

this has got to be the single most controversially retarded comment in all of this thread.
Im only saying this because of the comparison you made. I could care less if you liked the LOTR books.

 

[EffigyForgotten]

you may be right but many feel Consuming Impulse was their best.

Many have never heard of Pestilence and probably don't care. There first 3-4 albums were fucking amazing, but that last album they put out was outrageously terrible.

 

[Mort Divine]

Malleus Maleficarum is solid, but Consuming Impulse is EASILY their best. TotA is something you can safely pass by.

Now you see what I mean Hamburgerboy.

I love all three of those albums. Martin Van drunen´s vocals on malleus kicked some major ass. Consuming Impulse was a solid album but TotA was the pinnacle of their carreer IMO.
Unfortunately I think they bit off more then they could chew with spheres. I really tried liking the album and although i can listen to it, its just not good when compared to the previous three.
Resurection Macabre picked up where Consuming Impulse left off.
Doctrine is the bastard child of Consuming Impulse and Spheres.

Yes i am a proud Pestilence FANBOY

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Spheres has been gradually growing on me. I still think the guitar riffs pale next to the rest of the band, and some of the synth stuff is poorly implemented, and maybe it's a bit monotonous to boot, but that laid-back groovy tech-death/thrash sound is pretty rare. I kind of see it as their Mental Vortex. Hoping it will continue to grow. I actually like Doctrine too. Testimony and Resurrection are the only weak ones, but the van Drunen ones are the only excellent ones.

I should give it a few spins again.

Let me counter that by proclaiming that Reinkaos, though not exactly black metal, is still a solid album.

Agreed!!

Damn shame about Jon Nodtveidt (RIP).
Why the fuc would he wait until he was out of prison to take his life, I cant imagine he missed the cells.
I guess we would of never gotten Reinkaos if he had done it earlier.

Rest in peace Jon!
