Controversial opinions on metal

[waif]

Brutal is better.
Technical death metal is more likely to devolve into uninteresting wankery than brutal death metal is to devolve into tedious blasting. Brutal death metal is more likely to kick fucking ass than technical death metal is to impress me.

Blackened Death > Tech & Brutal

 

[waif]

[rms]

pretty much outside of OSDM, DM sucks.

 

[mutantllama]

Hahaha I beat you to it with melodic. And you need to add thrashed to it.

 

[The Ozzman]

OSDM is hit or miss. I like more death metal outside of OSDM than within it

me? lol naw i posted before you edited.

it also needs "SUPER!" in front of it, cant forget that.

 

[Tonka Time]

SUPER! atmospheric industrial old school tr00 kvlt melodic blackened brutal technical death thrash.

I see your outrageous accusation and raise you...

Tech death is indeed better than BDM, but am still not very much into. Brutality and older Monstrosity is the best tech death.

Controversial Opinion: I really don't like the old school Swedish Death scene. I just can't hear anything good in it and it puzzles me as to why it is popular. I have tried to listen to Entombed, Dismember, At the Gates and Grave.

I think all of those you named are pretty good, especially Entombed. Other than those you named and a few others, I agree.

It's strange, I know it must have some value because a great many people with good taste like it, I just can't figure out what it is. Other genres I don't like I can understand why others would like them, but I haven't gotten there for Swedish death metal

A lot of swedish, german, or russian DM isn't that good IMO.

 

[Life Sucks]

I like Swedish old school death metal a lot, but I can't understand why most people think that God Macabre - The Winterlong is the best Swedish OSDM album. I can think of lots of Swedish OSDM albums that are easily as good and event better.

What about Hypocrisy's first two albums? If you can appreciate those then the rest of old school Swedish, and Floridian Death Metal can't be far off.

I think that GWAR wouldn't be where they are now if they dressed like people.

Yeah, maybe they would've learned how to play better music instead of concentrating more on their stage show.

I don't know a lot about Swedish OSDM, nor do I know a lot about swedish DM for that matter, but from what I've heard from sweden so far, my favorite album is Entombed's Left Hand Path.
