I can't get over how laughably pathetic the vocals (not to mention the lyrics) are. Take it from a guy who can sing to some degree, Lemmy is a bad vocalist.

Tim Owens sucked in Iced Earth. Not sure how popular or unpopular an opinion that is, but Barlow was the heart and soul of that band. I'm glad he's back.

Owens had some good moments (like Ten Thousand Strong) but yeah, Barlow is a better fit imo.

What a load of bull...
So you're saying an entire album that doesn't "go somewhere" somehow manages to create a great flow? Last time I checked, in order for something to flow, it needs to actually move from place A to place B..not stay static at place A

He said the individual songs don't go anywhere but the album as a whole does.
I thought Skyforger was rather "by the numbers". Amorphis have fallen into a lazy trend now and they just pump out safe songs centred on Joutsen's vocals. Koskinen's lost his knack for riffs again. This is exactly the same thing that happened to them after Elegy.

What is an album but a collection of individual songs? If none of the songs go anywhere, then how can the album possibly go anywhere?!
It's just a load of bull and you know it...

I can recognise that there are some albums which aren't just a collection of individual songs, which need to be listened to as a whole to be appreciated, and can't really be grasped from individual songs. Don't know if I would put Silent Waters in that category but w/e.

For what Motorhead embodies (the 'I don't give a fuck' type of philosophy) and for what type of music they play, Lemmy is perfect. He's the pissed off, drunk Englishman with something to say.

He uses what seems like the same 3 notes in every song. All you need to do is find those 3 notes and sing through your nose and voila, Lemmy.

I wonder how many times it needs to be said that vocal talent does not necessarily perfectly equal how positively the vocals effect the music they complement.

Well Dream Theater is a perfect example of that, but this isn't quite the same thing. Motorhead falls into the same category as AC/DC for me, but at least AC/DC had some slightly more talented guitar work.
Either way, if you have heard one song by the band, you have heard them all.

Lemmy is a terrible singer, but a great vocalist. It fits the music. And agreed with Dakryn: Once you've heard a song you've heard 'em all.
AC/DC is one of the bands on my hate list. I hate them.
