Controversial opinions on metal

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

Paegan Terrorism Tactics is better than When The Kite String Pops

I thought it was controversial to admit to listening to Acid Bath, period.

 

[Krow]

Acid Bath is awesome, you faggot.

 

[CF87]

Acid Bath are awesome. Paegan Terrorism Tactics is better than When The Kite String Pops and one of the best albums ever recorded.

I know it's pretty controversial to admit that you're a flamer, but apparently you didn't care when you posted that

 

[DarkBliss]

Yeah when it ended.

I disagree, but funny nonetheless.

Incidentally, the last track is the best.

 

[Destructo_Pat]

Am I the only person who likes extreme metal AND nu metal?


Nu metal may appear to be too mainstream for many [especially on this board] but I actually think that a lot of bands in the genre are good at what they do.

 

[Badbird]

Speaking of nu-metal, I was thinking of making a thread about what makes it non-metal.

Show No Mercy gets pretty goofy and amateur at points, and Reign in Blood is far too inconsistent to be called excellent. Slayer has no albums better than very good.

I thought you were cool but you are going down in the cool-meter

 

[gundamterran]

I agree with Slayer being incredibly inconsistent.

Effigy of the Forgotten is the greatest death metal album ever.

Obituary is horrible.

 

[ASD]

Don't.

 

[damnromulans]

He already did, in "non-metal" which gets approximately 1 post every 36 hours.

@Krow & Ozz: I actually like Acid Bath, I was just amazed to not see someone say "THEY SUXORZ LOL" for once, you cum guzzling anal-whore queens.

Opinion: it's okay for bands to continue sounding pretty much the same as they always have; i.e., to keep the style that made them successful in the first place.

Agree/disagree?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Not really. If a band can write several albums of the same style and of equal quality then fine, but I don't think that it's possible.

 

[VelociBrad]

Opinion: it's okay for bands to continue sounding pretty much the same as they always have; i.e., to keep the style that made them successful in the first place.

Agree/disagree?

Agree. Vomitory is a perfect example of doing that and staying consistently good.

Let's see... Well there's the controversy against Metal in general, people say metal's only purpose (not including any core stuff, but more Thrash, Death, Black, Blackened, etc.) is to turn Americans into Satan worshipers, now I only speak for myself here, but I listen to Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Pantera, Iron Maiden, even boys like Vital Remains, (aka some of the bigger names in Metal) and I don't worship Satan in the least, I think the idea of a dark ruler is AWESOME but only if it's me, lol. Vote Slayer369 for dark overlord of earth!

Anyways... Anyone agree with me on this controversy???

 

[Satanstoenail]

Metal turned me into a Satan worshiper.

 

[sevag00]

I'm a huge Satan fan.

 

[RedFox742]

There needs to be more Satanic power metal.

For the lulz.

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

What about Helstar and Persuader? They at least have lyrics about Satan, though not necessarily praising him.
