Controversial opinions on metal

[S<issors]

Fuck you kids, DEI is a kickass album.

 

[The Ozzman]

Meshuggah is awesome and you're all faggots

 

[llamaking]

[S<issors]

I see we have reached an impasse.

Ozzman, on three, we blitz these fools, alright?

sorry, not my thing

 

[The_Lunar_Strain]

Messugah the Voice alone ruins it for me and the instrumentals are kind of weak

Heres a controversial statement the best Death Metal band ever is Vader

 

[Onder]

It's impossible to define a best band in genre, but yeah, Vader could be one of my favourite 90's death metal bands too.

EDIT: Let's say - european -.

 

[Onder]

Maybe they bring nothing new, but they've released few great cd's in middle 90's which can't be denied.

 

[Lord Kur]

i deny thee

 

[Onder]

Then stop being ignorant to Ultimate incantation, Profundis or Black to the blind especially. How could you call Vader generic with Graveland in your avatar. Tell me.

 

[Onder]

I thought you were drunk, you were breaking the multiple posts record in the other thread.

I somehow can't get into Graveland.

Let's hang Ozzman on a point down Pentagram.

Meshuggah is awesome and you're all faggots

Just before I hear my first Meshuggah song, I was given as much hype as could be possible about how creative and unique they were, and then I heard it...and that was probably the biggest 'That was it?' feeling I've ever had.

I felt the same when I first heard Meshuggah (Chaosphere, so the first song would've been Concatenation) it even took many spins before I could even appreciate the band in the slightest. I don't understand how they can be so popular when they're so inaccessible... Or maybe it's just me?

Hardly the greatest band ever, but... A damn good band.

FAnboy statement, and no, they're not.

 

[The Ozzman]

If you don't like Combustion from their latest, you are definitely a faggot.

 

[S<issors]

I love the vox TBH

 

[Lord Kur]

life is way too short for meshuggah

 

[S<issors]

How could you call [Meshuggah boring] with Graveland in your avatar? Tell me.

allow me to retort by misquoting onder

 

[Lord Kur]

i have no idea what graveland and meshuggah could possibly have in common

 

[waif]

Meshuggah is absolute garbage. Occasionally pounding on the lowest strings with basic power chords (CHUG CHUG-CHUG CHUG CHUG-CHUG-CHUG CHUG CHUG-CHUG...) is an extremely transparent attempt at using odd time signatures when you lack the rhythmic feel, talent, or technique to play them properly, and not "technical" at all. The drums sound like a machine in the worst possible way. They and Mastodon can burn in groove metal hell together.

"Hey, look at me play this stupid fucking power chord over and over! I AM A GUITAR GOD!"

Thank you. It's depressing how many people actually think they're creative.

Okay, WW is over-simplifying it - technically, they're very good and all. That said, they are fucking boring. I don't see anything creative about playing absurdly technical atonal riffs .
