Controversial opinions on metal

[Serjeant Grumbles]

Everything is my bidness, boy. I belong to a certain secret society, and we keep order 'round these parts.

 

[CiG]

Pfsh.

I don't think that I'd go see Rob Zombie. I don't care about him being true metal or anything. I just don't really like his music. The first White Zombie album was his best work.

 

[CiG]

We all know he's not true Metal but it's pretty funny that he's headlining the True Metal stage.

wacken was already on the downslide in the mid-00s. music was getting worse and way more assholes started turning up, used to be a lot more chill and tasteful all round. i haven't been since '07 though and can't imagine rob zombie headlining a stage back then, so i guess maybe it's gotten worse still (although i like rob zombie 'cause of his movies!)

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

same thing happened to NEMHCF. I went to it the first three years and it was amazing, then it turned to shit

 

[Omni]

Good thing that I don't like going to festivals of any kind.

 

[RedStorm]

rob zombies movies are better then the music he's ever been in, which is pretty bad

 

[CiG]

Rob Zombie's movies exactly reflect his music career in my opinion, did some decent shit in the beginning, flopped brutally afterwards.

Who the fuck remakes Halloween? The guy is a tit-head.

 

[Psychonaut]

I saw him a month or so ago. He's really pulled back on his shows. Not as much fun stuff going on on stage. He sounded decent but it was a short show. Greatest hits as expected.

lords of salem was pretty great imo.

 

[CiG]

I thought it sucked, maybe I should rewatch it.

 

[CF87]

Lords of Salem should have been better, but it was good. It was not typically what I expected coming from Rob Zombie. The Devils Rejects is good fun and hopefully he does something along those lines.

 

[MoSeN]

Don't give a shit for the music and Lords of Salem isn't worth watching twice.

 

[Omni]

Tim Baker is an awesome vocalist and I can't imagine anyone else in his place.

 

[no country for old wainds]

shouldn't be controversial

 

[Omni]

I agree, but I know that a lot of people hate him.

 

[EternalMetal]

I also know a lot of people who hate any excessive screaming or growling in their vocals, but that doesnt mean it is controversial in the context of metal. Id say it would be more controversial 'not' to like Baker's vocals if you are into metal. Imo he's a great vocalist, so you have no opposition from me either.

 

[The Ozzman]

Who is Tim Baker?

 

[EternalMetal]

Vocalist for Cirith Ungol.
