Controversial opinions on metal

[mutantllama]

WOooS is pretty fucking fucking awesome.

They are defiantly one of the ballsier melodeath bands.

I felt like they've moved too much towards accessibility; not enough trem-picked riffs, not enough speed, and way too polished productionwise. It worked on With Oden because they wrote some kickass riffs for that album, but all I want is another Crusher or even Versus the World. Another Once Sent is obviously out of the question. I have a feeling they'll get softer and softer, though.

Twilight was a letdown. They tried too hard to be epic.

I honestly thought ToTTG was a pretty good album.

me too

It wasn't a horrible album that should be avoided at all costs or anything; it just wasn't on par with the material they usually release.

I still think OSFTGH is the greatest melodic death metal album ever. An unbelievable album.

 

[Blind Guardian]

I've never liked them that much, well maybe for one or two songs now and then but absolutely not for a whole album.

Victorious March FTW.

Too bad they never play it live aside from one or two times.

 

[Ross]

You joking?

I second this post. Also, second best production ever after Hammerheart.

Joke, I assume? Shitty one.
I wish they played Without Fear live more, though.

It really does have excellent production, almost black metal like production.

Slipknot is overrated/crap
Pantokrator is hella underrated
Some metalcore/deathcore is actually decent
I worship the lead vocalist of Scar Symmetry

Neither controversial or relevant.

Pantokrator ARE underrated, but Aurum was kind of average/lame. Blod is great.

 

[Doomguy]

How is that controversial?

 

[arg]

now that ive been listening to more brutal vocals, i revisited Steve Tucker era Morbid Angel (dismissed it before), and realized that he is fucking great.

 

[Austin_Nielson]

Neither controversial or relevant.

I'd say it's not controversial/relevant for the first, second, and last line - but I felt the need to express that anyways, because Christian Alvestam is worthy of praise, any band with a DJ makes me unbelievably enraged, and I feel everybody should know about Pantokrator. The only comment I was trying to make controversial was the metalcore comment; because everybody seems to hate it. I thought it would be okay to have other opinions as long as one was controversial. So sorry about that.

 

[Xorv]

The only metalcore worth listening to is killswitch engage.

(and some silverstein & Aiden, whatever that stuff is)
