Controversial opinions on metal

[Omni]

I can't enjoy Cradle of Filth at all, even the oldest stuff.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Cradle of Filth are really good at what they do which is essentially theatrical bombast. The symphonic elements have actually been toned down a bit on their latest album which is pretty awesome I must say. I'm surprised I like it so much seeing as I kind of stopped caring after Godspeed.

Cruelty and the Beast is an excellent album once you get past one of the most annoying drum sounds in the history of recorded music. I've always liked Dani's cat with its nuts tapped in a vice vocals to be honest. Its that that low, whispering type of thing he tends to a lot that can get a bit irksome.

 

[CiG]

They're just so limpdick.

 

[AllShallFall]

How?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... in just about every possible way.

But yeah Cruelty and the Beast is somewhat enjoyable.

 

[AllShallFall]

No not really.

The Principle of Evil Made Flesh is good too.

What does that have to do with CoF's music?

 

[CiG]

Everything.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

Honestly, I could never really get into CoF, but I haven't heard much of them. I only remember that Nymphetamine song and my first reaction is that it's kind of corny. I'm willing to listen to something a little less… poppy if they have.

Best COF song ever:

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

I guess their new album is supposed to be good. Haven't heard it myself.

SepticFlesh, what do people hear in this band? This ultra bland bog standard death metal with a symphony.

[Slayed Necros]

The first two Septic Flesh albums are excellent and nothing like their later material. Check them out.
