Controversial opinions on metal

[CiG]

This is possibly the dumbest disagreement I've ever been engaged in. I really don't know how you aren't getting this.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

just because you play =/= are a good band who releases timeless albums

Name a single death metal band with more than three timeless albums.

I don't really have an interest in proving myself wrong, so...

 

[HamburgerBoy]

lolwut

 

[rms]

I am guessing you're trying to death metal bands are similar to thrash, and I would agree...so?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

So it's not something specific to thrash but instead applies to basically all metal bands? Making an exception for some of the most important trad bands, I would then agree.

 

[EchoForever]

my favorite bay area thrash band is kreator

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Kreator's Bay Area material is shite, their Gothenburg period is incredibly bland, their Teutonic thrash is sometimes great but often overrated, and their Neue Deutsche Härte material is underrated.

Its dumb because I never intended this to be an argument in the first place. You went out of your way to debate me on something I never cared about in the first place. You wasted your time and I wasted my time.

I think it's inherent to death/black (but not atmospheric)/thrash..wouldn't say epic/heavy/trad(including NWOBHM)/doom include these 'traits'

Yet they're still better than the big four

mangled corpse, rancid stench and choronzon through the abyss

 

[Sirjack]

Obituary, Cephalic Carnage and Exhumed

 

[MrTagoMago]

Just curious how far in the minority am I if I think Leprosy is the best album by Death?

 

[EchoForever]

Leprosy is great, but it's not my all time favorite by them
too many Death discussion

 

[no country for old wainds]

I can't help myself, when people say incredibly stupid things.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Scream Bloody Gore all the way.

I don't see why it's so stupid but at least H.P. Lovecraft gave a real reasoning for the seperation. Still all I meant was I don't really like the idea of seperating bands based on country not that you couldn't do it or there isn't reason to do it.
