Curse You All Men!
Pick up "Axis: as bold as love" on vinyl yesterday. I enjoyed the first spin quite a bit. I'll spin it again when I get home from work today.

I love Henry and all, but uhm, what kind of positive influence could that shit possibly have had?

Buzz from the Melvins and Al Cisneros from Sleep and OM have both named Black Flag as a cornerstone of their influences. That's just off the tippy top, and those bands are both monumental. I could find you several more like-minded innovators if you'd like.

They lead the original wave of hardcore bands who went on to influence bands who created Thrash such as Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, etc. Black Flag influenced a fuck ton of people and still are today.

Regardless of whether you enjoy their music, their influence can't really be argued. I don't like Motorhead's material, but I'd never deny the fact that it broke ground in metal, punk, and a number of other genres.
Best rock symphony, yes
only part that annoys me is the dumb k-mart clip or whatever it is.Fleshgod Apocalypse, Revocation and Arsis are pure shit.
"Party thrash" is musical AIDS. There is nothing worse than bands who sell hipsters a gutted version of "metal authenticity." Why hate on Emmure when they're so much more honest than Municipal Waste?
Most Norwegian black metal sucks, especially Carpathian Forest and Nattefrost. Also, I would honest to god rather listen to Bring Me the Horizon than any recent Darkthrone album. At least BMTH's recent material shows effort, as opposed to listening to Fenriz suck his own cock.
Killswitch Engage is the worst possible combination of strained, blue-collar aggro and power-bottom emo faggotry.
Deathspell Omega, Funeral Mist, Katharsis, Pseudogod and S.V.E.S.T. are the only good "orthodox" black metal bands; the rest of them are pretty much insipid Marduk clones combined with the kind of pretentiousness that one would expect from Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Plus, worshiping the version of Satan that the Bible describes is retarded.

All of the above are very, very true, though over-saturation of hype has never prevented me from enjoying Von or any project that Neige is involved in.

I'm not sure what's worse, saying newer Darkthrone like the underground resistence is worse than bring me the horizon, or using bmth as a reference point. One of the worst things I've ever read in this thread.

Well I obviously wouldn't listen to Bring Me The Horizon but I agree about new Darkthrone.
EDIT: Leave No Cross Unturned was a fun song though.

I agree with that sentiment. I listened to Urfaust in the past and I just couldn't understand how anyone could find their work enjoyable.
