Controversial opinions on metal

hey look at my vinyl man ...i'm completely out of touch with 2016 metal. l honestly have no idea, don't know where to look etc it doesn't bother me of course, but getting myself into stupid arguments doesn't help. l need to take the time (like everyone else) and try to look at the other person's perspective from time to time.

Wait im confuzzled. Who is this directed at me or Echo?
 
Most of my controversial opinions tend to be related to Metallica, Slayer, and Iron Maiden, besides i assumed everyone was aware i was big into industrial and wasnt all that impressed with a lot of popular metal bands and albums particularly in the realm of death metal and black metal.

Yea, I know you like industrial, but to just go ahead and say this:
I could post some industrial I love but i know youre going to shoot it down because its not your kind of music.

Is just acting smug. I dont even think that your opinion is relevant to this topic. Basically what satanstonail said, I just thought you saying that industrial was superior to metal was just you being a pretentious dick.

Thanks for providing some examples.

I wasnt trying to be smug i was going based on experience. I only said it as a partially joking response to Elric.

It's a good job a lot of metal aspires to be more than just a collection of riffs or else I'd find it to be a pretty worthless genre.

I don't even know what HamburgerBoy means by "good riffs" anymore since he said that Dimmu Borgir song in the current mixtape game had sufficient quality of riffs. I found them boring.

There was an earlier post he made where he went into detail about what he means by riffs which i recall was more than youd think but i still would never agree t hats all that matters.
