Controversial opinions on metal

[Malfeitor666]

i dont know how controversial these are, but i find anything other than blessed and altars by morbid angel to be boring. i hate every single band that is not old school death, thrash, black, traditional/funeral doom, or NWOBHM and i hate most bands in those genres.

 

[DarkBliss]

I bet there's an easier way to say that.

Yea, Zephurus just wants to show-off. That's what makles him funny though.

You don't enjoy domination? Blessed and Altars are amazing of course but also this:

WEEE MUUST DOO-MI-NATE!!!

I like.

I can't help it . Seriously. I'm constantly immersed in this type of language what for all the stuff I'm reading for my classes. And I tend to use a lot of Latin cognates, which are often more scholarly-sounding than some vulgar Germanic word.

 

[DarkBliss]

Both you and Necuratul have this tendency for (often) unwarranted
word wizardry. I know what you mean, man, and understand it completely. I've been there too(immersed in all that high academic stuff)

Tom Araya should be kicked in the sack for changing Ian McKay's lyrics.

 

[Life Sucks]

yeah, I cant stand this stuff.

And they are one of the best stoner metal bands. Listen to Kyuss, High on Fire, Om, or Sleep to hear some real crap.

Was it a Fugazi or Minor Theat song? Minor Theat had stupid straightedge lyrics, and Fugazi's music I don't like.

Maybe not too controversial, but Destruction's Cracked Brain is a fucking awesome album and the vocalist on it does a better job than Schmmier.

Yes, that's a fantastic album, but not everyone likes it.

[Mort Divine]

Not really. I'd rather listen to Slipknot than Kyuss. Kyuss are one of the worst metal bands I've ever heard. Again, it's purely a matter of taste.

I'd argue that some music is intrinsically good so not purely.

Explain. You mean to say it's good just because of how the music is laid out or what?

 

[Mort Divine]

Yeah, I'm not musically knowledgeable enough to explain it properly but albums like Gorguts's Obscura, Black Sabbath's Master of Reality, Joanna Newsom's Ys, Pink Floyd's Animals, Dead Can Dance's The Serpent Egg, etc. are good regardless of whether or not one likes them.

I mean I can't fuckin' stand Pink Floyd and find them to be boring as fuck, but they're still good music. It is still wonderfully constructed and incredibly intricate music.

You could say that about a ton of stuff. That doesn't make it good. Good is a relative measure. If you like it, it's good. If you don't like it, it's bad. Simple.

 

[Mort Divine]

Wrong. There are objective ways to judge just about ANYTHING.

 

[waif]

no.

 

[Mort Divine]

Quit being retarded and go away.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Stop talking about dumb stuff like this plz.

 

[DarkBliss]

Man, so much negativity. It's good music if you find something special, intriguing, interesting in it, that's all.
