Controversial opinions on metal

[UltimateApathy]

I agree, posting Paramount and saying that it's good is pretty dull

oh hello nightsbane

Making Slipknot jokes is so 2001.

How do we know the Slipknot and SOAD guy is trolling? "Landmark" and "unique" are hyperbole, but the songs posted weren't exactly the most generic example of either band or the nu-metal genre on a whole. I enjoy both Toxicity and Hypnotize quite a bit.

How do you know you have bad taste in music? When you listen to Slipknot.

People = Shit > Spirit Crusher

 

[EffigyForgotten]

Diarrhea > You

I'm honestly offended ...

But i find it funny that you're knocking on him for posting that crap when you listen to kpop and pararmore and post that shit here as well

People = Shit > Spirit Crusher

 

[Mort Divine]

If you don't find that shit worse than what I listen to then it really makes your taste even more questionable than it already is

We need to make an official declaration of what kinds of non-metal are the most metal. It goes without saying that nu-metal and metalcore are among the least metal, and that Wagner and Celtic folk music are among the most metal, but what about in between? Is Paramore more or less metal than REM, for example? And what about contemporary R&B? I think TLC is probably more metal than Rihanna, but I might be wrong on that.

 

[Avigrus]

I think TLC is probably more metal than Rihanna, but I might be wrong on that.

No, you're correct on that one.

 

[EffigyForgotten]

And I thought this thread couldn't get fucking gayer.

 

[Mort Divine]

It wouldn't have had you not posted in it

 

[EffigyForgotten]

Yea that makes perfect sense coming from the guy who listens to paramore.

 

[Mort Divine]

It does

Making Paramore jokes is so 2001.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Do Paramore fans actually call themselves Parawhores? I'm listening to 'crushcrushcrush' on YouTube right now and that's what the top rated comment implies. Song is decent. Much better than most tech-death.

 

[Mort Divine]

There are a few amongst the HS age girl range that I imagine do, but no one I personally know does.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I thought HS aged girls were something you knew quite personally.</so2001>

I listen to Paramore occasionally because the wife likes them. The handful of songs I like that they have all use the standard rock/pop chords/progressions. They are "likable" for a reason. Corporate formula. Paramore executes well.
