Controversial opinions on metal

[Bitencourt29]

So the controversial opinion seems to be to like Brians work with AC/DC more than Bons. Count me in on that one. I dont really like Bon that much at all.

+1

James LaBrie was good, though derivative early on, but after he hurt his voice he just sounds like pure shit.

Them and a bunch of other overlooked thrash acts like Coroner, Toxik, etc.

Watchtower and Coroner are awesome...I could never really get into Toxik though.

Add Anacrusis to that list.

 

[Dak]

Watchtower and Coroner are awesome

I don't think that is controversial.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Not even close.

 

[whiskey funeral]

It's common knowledge, really.

 

[XSASweet]

although it could be controversial to think that watchtower is more awesome than coroner.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

If Watchtower released three or four albums you guys would have the three best thrash bands in here. It's only controversial to deny that fact.

That would be controversial to me...

 

[MasterOLightning]

Labrie isn't that bad. He's at least adequate. And if there was ever a band where the vocals aren't too important, it's Dream Theater. Then again, I really don't pay much attention to vocals at all.

I agree about Toxik. Coroner is definitely in the top 5 thrash bands of all time. I don't think they will ever be one of those forgotten about bands like Toxik. With Watchtower I seem to prefer the album without Ron Jarzombek for some reason.

First two, sure. The later material has a serious case of teh ghey.

I'm pretty sure that what you meant to say is that Screams and Whispers owns so hard it makes young children cry.

 

[S.U.A.D.]

Judas Priest and Iron Maiden eat ass.

That's about as controversial and blasphemous as I get.

 

[youdontknowme]

lol

I used to be like that.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Judas Priest and Iron Maiden kick ass.

FYP.

 

[S.U.A.D.]

FYP.

lulz omg.

Nah, I'll pass.

 

[Black Friday]

I can certainly understand why people like them, they just seem childish now, and there's much better stuff to listen to in the same vein.

I haven't really heard anything in the same vein as Judas Priest's 70's albums that is better, since those albums are basically perfect the way that they are if you ask me. Lots of other good music, including Iron Maiden, was inspired by those albums, but I haven't heard anything that really improved on them from my perspective while keeping to the same kind of style.

That especially goes for Stained Class, which is pretty much the best traditional metal album as far as I'm concerned.

I was more going for the discogs as a whole, but SWOD and SC are both ace, to me the point still applies to the rest of the stuff though.
