Controversial opinions on metal

[CiG]

They peaked with their debut basement death metal demo.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Nah. As far as their earliest stuff goes Into Infinite Obscurity is better.

 

[CiG]

It's pretty cool.

 

[Mort Divine]

Cardinal Sin - Spiteful Intents
Sacrilege - Lost in the Beauty You Slay

fucking love these two

 

[no country for old wainds]

list needs some crown of thorns imho

 

[Phylactery]

Sure, add Eternal Death to the list. Not listened to that one in a long time, but I remember it being far more aggressive and more death metally than the other albums on my list.

 

[CiG]

Melodeath peaked with Arch Enemy.

 

[Zonfar]

My buddy insists that Lamb Of God is emo.

 

[EchoForever]

well you can rest assured knowing that hes incorrect on a very easily provable level

 

[Sirjack]

Melodeath peaked with Arch Enemy.

l really rate Stigmata but not heard anything else earlier

 

[CiG]

I was joking, band blows.

 

[Sirjack]

They should have stopped at the demos or stayed with that sound

 

[HamburgerBoy]

The demos are mostly good, but overrated. Solid tech-thrash but not pinnacles of the genre or anything. Focus was totally unique.

 

[The Ozzman]

Unique =/= good

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Unique =/= good

I've said the same recently regarding that shitty Supuration album. Focus is unique and excellent.

 

[Satanstoenail]

It’s not very controversial to say Focus sucks around these parts anyway.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Yeah it has always been an out-crowd thing

 

[Phylactery]

I won’t say it sucks, but I’ve never been a fan. Doesn’t grab me in the same way early Athiest does.
