Controversial opinions on metal

People were definitely harsher and more willing to speak their minds, that's for sure. Today's UM is a metal safe space in comparison, lol. Back then you would be fucking crucified by everyone if you even remotely liked a band like Pantera or CoB. I dont even think that the "in-crowd" that HBB refers to is even relevant to UM anymore. Lately it is more of a trad/doom circle jerk, but I dont get quite the same elitist vibe as I did from this place years ago.

The funny thing is that there are posts going back really far where Dodens defended CoB as black metal and people shit on him for it. He apparently deleted those out of humiliation because the posts don't exist anymore, but quotes of the posts do. In-crowd-ness propagates like pedophilia.

he and erik both had a habit of deleting their own posts. erik posted on my friend's forum as well and bribed him to delete all of his posts one time because he had a meltdown. weirdos. if i ever deleted old posts it'd be ones that attempted to be funny and tragically failed.

I've run across Dodens a few times on Facebook. Seemed like a mediocre, highly emotionally reactive faggot to me.

That sounds like a cross between Count Basie, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, and an old blues pianist, I'd listen the shit out of that.

I can feel Dodens watching.

It was some gay J-rock inspired shit I think.

It sounds like it came out of the edgier parts of the blues underground, same sort of scene that produced Screamin' Jay, Professor Longhair, and Guitar Slim.

I wasn't that cool when I was 15. Though I did like blues music.

Watching what? The final nail being driven into the coffin of his credibility?

Who cares? It sounds that cool, at least to me.

to be fair he's funny in that thread. "BlackMetalTyrant is cargo." is an all-timer.

That was admittedly well-played.
