Controversial opinions on metal

[Solipsist]

-King Diamond's vocals (for both KD and Mercyful Fate), when he sounds high-pitched like a little kid going "eeee!", are so fucking awful.... and this is coming from someone who thinks Cirith Ungol's vocals are quite tolerable.

 

[King Richard]

If that's controversial then I agree.

I love you

CSI: Miami is awesome. But this is not the thread for that.

i prefer csi las vegas

 

[Gold]

for example...

agoraphobic nosebleed, see you next tuesday(if you consider them grindcore). nasum, pig destroyer, are just some bands that come to mind. maybe its just the fact that i dont like short songs or somthing. but i find most of it tedious

if you can recommend me some good grind bands it would be appreciated though!

 

[Lord Kur]

my favorite is lord gore. cool vocals and lots of variety

 

[Thoth-Amon]

Chris Barnes is still a good death metal vocalist today.

 

[King Richard]

I don't understand how someone could dislike Cradle of Filth's first four albums.

Tim Owens is an overrated vocalist.

hmmm. I have to recognize that A.N. is a difficult band to understand. Is almost noisecore, like anal cunt and decomposing serenity, but i can recommend great bands to you.

the list:

Birdflesh - Night Of The Ultimate Mosh
Disgorge (Mex) - Necrholocaust
Brutal Truth - Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses
Extreme Noise Terror - Being and Nothing
Terrorizer - World Downfall
Defecation - Purity Dilution
Agathocles - Razor Sharp Daggers
Dead Infection - Brain Corrosion
Cripple Bastards - Misanthropo A senso Unico
Carcass - Symphonies Of Sickness

there is nothing to discuss... i iz right

 

[Vitor]

yep. i like all albums that i've heard.

 

[Thoth-Amon]

ok how about this opinion...
there hasn't been any important or worthwhile developments in metal since the second wave of black metal... while there have been good bands and albums since then the genre as a whole has been sucking ass... look at the styles that have become popular since then... tech death, brutal death, metalcore, etc. all bullshit

 

[King Richard]

Aye. We've discussed this at length plenty of times. Metal to me, is in a point of stagnation. I'd much rather listen to the pioneers or classic albums then waste my money or time trying to find this "new and upcoming" metal. Most bands I've listened to lately aren't really concerned with writing some kickass songs as much as they want to show off. Which explains why I haven't bought an album in 2 1/2 years.

[Dazed and Brutal]

I don't like Emperor

 

[The Ozzman]

Deicide's first three albums kick major ass
Pierced from Within is better than Effigy of the Forgotten
Most technical death metal sucks cock
Human is Death's worst album

 

[Thoth-Amon]

Deicide's first three albums kick major ass
Most technical death metal sucks cock

these are hardly controversial opinions... more like scientifically demonstratable facts
