Controversial opinions on metal

[EffigyForgotten]

Not my opinion (actually my cousins)

He pretty much said that all the music I showed him one day, raging from Black metal to Brutal death metal wasn't "aggressive", especially the death metal.(I didn't go as far as raw black metal or goregrind) And he told me Tool was more aggressive than Suffocation.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Did you show him Agalloch and Rings of Saturn?

 

[EffigyForgotten]

Why would I do that?

Show him Nile

 

[Eligos]

Nile is the most aggressive band you can think of? Why not show him DsO?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

lol @ any Norwegian/post-Norway black metal being mentioned in the context of "most aggressive band".

 

[Mort Divine]

I'd be mentioning something like Conqueror or Blasphemy. They're not something I'd call 'good' but aggressive, yes.

Cryptopsy would of been a good ides now that I think about it.

Didn't think of black/death bands.

Antaeus is always what I show when people want stuff that is super violent, evil, intense, aggressive, etc

Can we just say your friend is a retard Tool fan that thinks Maynard is some musical genius? Because he's really a giant pretentious faggot. I'm not sure I've ever used the word pretentious to describe anyone or thing but Tool.

And don't give me any of that deep lyrical meaning bullshit either.

I bought 10000 days and lateralus and listened to them both as many times as I could stomach just to see if there was something I was missing and I should have eaten my twenty fucking dollars and slammed my head against the wall instead.

Or your friend is just more likely some teenager that thinks its cool to smoke pot erryday.

Okay let me start of by saying you are right, he thinks all metal is shit, and takes no musical skill compared to the crap he listens to, (mostly ska and bands like 311 I believe) and thinks it takes no talent to do metal vocals, and of course he says that since he can't understand what they are saying, he thinks its stupid and that all of the bands he listens to have like you said "deep lyrical content" when IMO most of it is fucking retarded.

He does not think its "cool" to smoke weed every day, he's just a pothead, same with me, we love weed for what it is, and back in high school he was actually avoided by people for doing drugs.

He is 19.

He's acting like that and he's 19?

Let me guess: he's some hipster who thinks that he's special because he listens to "deep" songs by generic pop-ish bands.

 

[The Ozzman]

I don't even try to convince people anymore. Like what you like and don't like what you don't like. He may come around someday. I know I did when it came to metal.
