Controversial opinions on metal

[seedofvengeance]

Considering that Bathory might be the single most respected band on this forum... I'm gonna go ahead and say no.

 

[youdontknowme]

fuck off

I like both, but if you want to compare for some acinine reason i'd say yes.

didn't you say grind sucked? then why do you have Carcass in your sig?

 

[Zephyrus]

The first five Bathory albums are above criticism.

 

[The Ozzman]

No album is above criticism

That's not that weird of a thing because most grind does suck. Carcass however, does not.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Summoning(seriously, is there a more formulaic band than these Austrians, strictly from a technical standpoint?)

this is why i could part with most of their discography without batting an eyelid

quiet you. grind is awesome.

 

[whiskey funeral]

Someone doesn't have to be a grind fan to appreciate and like Carcass, Justin. That's just ridiculous.

 

[youdontknowme]

yeah, I forgot about closet cases who like Fartwork.

 

[whiskey funeral]

There is nothing wrong with Heartwork ("Fartwork", that's cute}.

 

[youdontknowme]

compared to Symphonies and Necroticism its pretty weak.

 

[whiskey funeral]

Because it's not grind? Elaborate.

 

[youdontknowme]

no, no. just admit it, Carcass sold out.

 

[whiskey funeral]

I like how you are not elaborating on your opinion AT ALL and just spouting off stupid shit. I personally enjoy the album and don't think they "sold out" like you and many others do. The songs on that album are heavy and thought provoking and they did so without having to play fast. I think it more or less proves what talent they possess.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Actually your mom sold out.

^ There, I put it in terms he'd understand.

 

[Zephyrus]

no, no. just admit it, Carcass sold out.

I wouldn't call setting standards "selling out."

Sorry if I went a little overboard. I just can't stand it when people say something sucks or a band sold out or WHATEVER and say nothing to back up their opinion.

No, awesome grind is awesome, shit grind is shit. Their just happens to be a high percentage of shitty grind bands.

This goes for all metal genres, honestly.

I wouldn't call any album that still features extreme vocals "selling out" because in order to sell out someone has to buy it you dumb fuck
