Controversial opinions on metal

[Talos of Atmora]

Yeah that alone deligitimizes the authors, if the inclusion of Slipknot, Korn and Body Count didn't already.

I don't really know why you're surprised by Rolling Stone's omission of Sad Wings of Destiny or Sin After Sin. In the caption for every Judas Priest pick, they always seem to berate '70s Priest. Hell, the only reason they put Stained Class on there is because that was the first time they ever charted.

I'm not surprised at all. I know what a garbage publication Rolling Stone is.

From what Ive read in that magazine, Id say their time would be better spent drinking coffee and shittíng.

Oh you're back. Maybe this thread will see a resurgence again now.

Rolling Stone, literally rolling its way downhill since it started, gathering more and more bullshit as it goes.

Also am i the only one bothered by the fact that Iowa is higher on the list then Emperor,Opeth and Gojira?

Yes, you're the only one. No one else is bothered. No one.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I'm bothered that Iowa didn't make #1.

Hello. Yes, I was reading about the rolling stone magazine in this thread. It inspired myself to write an opinion on it. I remember when I read an interview with Ozzy Osbourne, where he said that, in his opinion, Black Sabbath arent Heavy Metal.

Yeah, I just read that and went, "Oh, CIG is going to be so pissed".

One time I placed a copy of Rolling Stone next to my copy of Hail to England and the rag somehow simultaneously melted and burst into flames.

It was really fucking weird.

Not sure why people are even going to the effort of posting about it. Since when has Rolling Stone ever been an authority on metal (let alone music)?

Metal types are pretty sensitive over that kinda stuff.

When Metallica appeared in the 90`s or whenever it was, I thought to myself, these are shit, and are going to ruin rock / metal. And other than the usual sheep that say they like them, at the end of their career, now, metal / rock is dead. I used to see many many rock fans with the tour shirts etc walking around everywhere, but nowadays, nothing. Metallica and their other peers killed it.

You think Im trolling? Read it again and ponder as to whether I may in fact be giving my opinion, and it is based in truth. I am a huge rock fan, and found bands of the seventies and eighties to be superb andextremely talented. However it clearly changed when Metallica came along, and others similar. It wasnt good to listen to. I knew that was the end of rock. In the eighties there were lots of rock fans with their leathers and denims and band t-shirts on. Nowadays there are virtually none. No-one wants to listen to Metallicas music, other than the sheep, and a decade or so of them and their ilk, killed it. Troll? read the thread title.

Boring contrarian comment. People talked about it for about 3 seconds, who cares.

Anthrax don't deserve to be in the big four of thrash metal.

It should've been Overkill.
