Controversial opinions on metal

edit: nevermind, didn't he say he graduated at 14 or something?

Also, i agree on the new Grave being one of this years best DM albums.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Rigor Mortis (on the basis of their S/T and Freaks) is average at best.

 

[Kara-Shehr]

Explain why? Does liking women make me gay?

You don't have to be gay to be a faggot.

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

Heritage is awesome, you guys don't know what you're talking about.

Heritage is awesome, and Folklore was one of my favorite songs from that year. That said, you're not going to convince the majority of people on metal forums that.

Grave had a solid outing this year, but for me Incantation, Drawn & Quartered, Necrovation, Desecresy and Hooded Menace all topped it for death metal.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... i keep forgetting to order that Drawn and Quartered album. No love for the new Master? I think that's up there with this years best DM albums.

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

Haven't listened to it yet, its been on my to do list for over a month now.

 

[Krow]

Here's probably a controversial opinion... compared to their other albums, the new Hooded Menace sucks.

Oh and that Necrovation album is fucking terrible. The new Incantation is fantastic though. I listened to it probably five times in a row when I got it in the mail.

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

Here's probably a controversial opinion... compared to their other albums, the new Hooded Menace sucks.

From what i've read so far that isn't controversial. The new album didn't hit me as hard as either of them for me either, initially. Now I personally have it side by side with Fulfill the Curse.

Rigor Mortis (on the basis of their S/T and Freaks) is average at best.

The fuck? I can't speak for Freaks, but the self-titled is brilliant. Where do you think they fall short?

Everyone makes mistakes, do I need to find the many quotes by you where you mess up 50% of the time? I took a test (can't remember the name) to skip high school almost 2 years ago, it took a while but I passed it Yes I'm a loser.

Megadeth > Metallica and Slayer has sucked for 20 years.

Death is still better than any DM band from the 80's/90's.

Heritage was the WORST change for any band in the history of time and the worst attempt at sounding like 70's prog rock.

Regular Black Metal is the worst extreme genre of metal, unless the band has symphonic/prog influences they pretty much suck.

German thrash > American Thrash.

1) No.

2) No.

3) Opeth sucks.

4) Don't be a faggot.

5) I guess.

 

[Bled & Dead]

Pagan Altar and Manilla road are overrated!

There I´ve said it... Let the flaming begin.

 

[The Butt]

Nope. They're rated just fine I believe.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Megadeth > Metallica and Slayer has sucked for 20 years.

About right, but i wouldn't say Slayer has sucked, Divine Intervention was awesome, and some of their newer stuff is pretty decent.

Death is still better than any DM band from the 80's/90's.

they indeed are/were better than most bands around then and now.

Regular Black Metal is the worst extreme genre of metal, unless the band has symphonic/prog influences they pretty much suck.

no.

German thrash > American Thrash.

never.

Yes I'm a loser.

Yes, definitely.

 

[EffigyForgotten]

Black metal > welcome to hell


Rust in peace > Peace sells

I don't think I've ever heard a band make such a perfect album as Death, on every album from Leprosy to The Sound Of Perseverance there is not a single bad song, seriously not fucking one.

You apparently didn't listen to any of the songs on The Sound of Perseverance before making your judgment on it, since it's one of the worst albums ever recorded by a band that has ever been good. The entire album blows, with the Judas Priest cover being the worst offender.

And you must be autistic.

Yea right, The Sound of Perseverance is fucking awesome.

 

[Omni]

And you must be autistic.

I'm not impressed by overly technical randomness with a preference for flash over actual songwriting or content overlaid with poorly performed, angsty vocals and lyrics. If your best response is to claim that I'm of inferior intelligence rather than actually talking about the album and defending your opinion on the music, it only further justifies my opinion in my eyes, as you must be the exact caliber of person that it takes to appreciate such a superficially constructed abortion of an album.

It's certainly not what I'd consider quality death metal, nor is it impressive as a feat of technicality combined with good songwriting.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... but theres nothing really "overly technical" about that album.

but hey, i know a lot of people that dont like TSoP, so im not surprised. While its not their best, it's still a very good album nonetheless IMO.
