Controversial opinions on metal

[no country for old wainds]

Crystal Logic... pales in comparison to... Frost and Fire.

uh i tap out here

Paradise Lost and One Foot in Hell are legitimately garbage albums that shouldn't even be mentioned in the company of Frost and Fire and King of the Dead. Tragic they wasted half their set playing those garbage tunes.

But your sad love affair with dodens renders you unable to appreciate the wealth of A+ material from the greatest metal band, ever.

If you say so. I'm not sure how someone who likes the first two Cirith Ungol albums could think those ones are legitimately garbage without a lot of denialism going on, even though they're obviously not as good as the first two.

You do realize that Dodens strongly prefers Manilla Road to Cirith Ungol and most other bands, right? I get that this is your go-to argument when I say things that you don't like, but you don't even have your facts straight. He was easily the biggest Manilla Road apologist that I've ever seen.

He gave it a 4/5 iirc. Are we redefining love now? Sure it's a nice high rating and all, but I think you're stretching his feelings towards the album further than a 4/5 can go.

Yes, please debate and deduce the extent to which I appreciate Battle Cry with Omni. Don't ask me, I have a conflict of interest on the matter, after all.

Comparing our RYM distributions, a 4/5 in my book is a 5/5 in your book. Not everyone is a fucking retard and has the middle of their bell curve at 4/5.

 

[rms]

That was the obvious implication, glad it went over your head and nothing has changed

 

[Omni]

Sorry, I must have missed that because I was too busy laughing at the idea of you calling Manilla Road the greatest metal band ever. Too funny. You're literally being Dodens circa 2008 at the moment.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Manilla Road could have been the greatest band ever if you took all of their very best songs, made a single album out of that, and then somehow made 3 or 4 more albums even better than that hypothetical album.

Wow need a tissue cunt?

Mmkay. Never mind that we both gave British Steel a 4/5.

No band is consistent as Manilla nor touched greatness 8 times. Most important and influential underground band too

 

[CiG]

They're my favourite metal band, easily.

I wonder what universe you're from if you really think that Manilla Road is one of the most influential underground metal bands.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

"touched greatness 8 times" lmfao

How did you interpret that as me taking offense? I was just pointing the stupid lengths you'll go to argue a non-argument. Unless you were implying that I came, in which case, props.

That only proves my point further.

Greatness promptly told them to fuck off each time.

 

[no country for old wainds]

one foot in hell is at least as good as frost & fire if not better. none of them are close to KotD level though

 

[Talos of Atmora]

I can only think of four albums where Manilla Road came close. They're a good band but not that good.

 

[Slayed Necros]

I much prefer One Foot in Hell to Frost & Fire tbh.

 

[CiG]

That only proves my point further.

Explain.

 

[Krow]

You’re all a bunch of silly fags. Frost and Fire is untouchable.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

Frost and Fire is untouchable.

Nah. King of the Dead is a substantial improvement over it and remains their best work.
