Controversial opinions on metal

[CiG]

I actually prefer it when less dumbasses like the bands I love, so it's all good.

 

[MrTagoMago]

Around here those bands are The Chasm, Manilla Road, and Arch-era Fates Warning.

Never heard of The Chasm and I used to be big into Manilla road but haven't listened or been interested in them for a while. I am huge on John Arch Fates Warning or hell Fates in general.

 

[alex76]

I made a derogatory remark about The Chasm once on here. The backlash was such that I had considered checking myself into a mental institution. Now, every time I see the name of THAT band, I'm triggered.

Where are the social justice warriors when you need them?

 

[Vilden]

Around here those bands are The Chasm, Manilla Road, and Arch-era Fates Warning.

And most trad doom, especially Pagan Altar and Saint Vitus. X)

 

[alex76]

... and if you want a shitstorm, say something about King Diamond.

Hell, I think that is even a bannable offense!

 

[EspaDa]

But we do appreciate Lars Ulrich's drumming skills and always try to defend St. Anger's name.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I prefer Ulrich's drumming on the first four Metallica albums to Lombardo's drumming on the first two Slayer albums, or virtually anything Charlie Benante has done.

Around here those bands are The Chasm, Manilla Road, and Arch-era Fates Warning.

Needs more Sacramentum.

 

[CiG]

Needs more 3rd and 4th Autopsy albums.

I'm a shameless fanboy of The Chasm. Do yourself a favour and listen to Deathcult for Eternity, Procession to the Infraworld and Conjuration of the Spectral Empire. All of their albums are worthy, though.

 

[The Ozzman]

I checked out 5 of the first 6 Sabbath albums again (not Paranoid) and my favorites right now are Master of Reality and Sabotage.

 

[Phylactery]

Those 2 might be my favourite as well.

 

[The Ozzman]

SBS is growing on me too. I used to not like the tone of Ozzy's voice on that album.

 

[alex76]

That's about when Ozzy's buzz-whine vocal style fully formed.

 

[MrTagoMago]

Children of the damned is a poor mans Beyond the realms of death.

 

[alex76]

No.

 

[MrTagoMago]

No.

I could go even further and say it's a filler like Gangland.

 

[alex76]

No, and no.

 

[EspaDa]

Has anybody actually listened to The Book of Souls? How is it in comparison to the rest of their 2000's albums?
