Controversial opinions on metal

[seedofvengeance]

As sevag00 single handedly sets race relations back 50 years.

Btw... I'm listening to Sevendust, not metal, but they're a damn good band.

 

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

Please don't start a racist argument here...let sevag have retarded opinions with no real logic. Don't let it bother you or argue with it. Thank you.

Black people in metal is rare, but it's fine. It's a terrible reason not to listen to a band.

Has anyone actually heard Black Death? I've heard of them, but I have no idea if they're any good.

 

[skeptik]

Black Death is awesome, as are Sound Barrier and Stone Vengeance, two other all black bands.

[Life Sucks]

^ One of the best contemporary old school death metal bands! srlsy

 

[Blind Guardian]

The drummer looks like Jazzy Jazz

 

[waif]

Those guys are really good.

 

[The Ozzman]

They are actually a metal band. I thought LS was joking

 

[The Butt]

Here's a controversial opinion:
No racism, but i hate negros being in a metal band, so i stay away from those bands, even one member of the band is black.

Go read the book In The Heat of the Night, please.

 

[Life Sucks]

Those guys are really good.

Yes, the kick ass. They sound like they are from the early 90s, both in terms of production and style. And then occasionally they'll throw in a high twin guitar harmony or a heavy metal riff.

 

[waif]

Yeah. I really like the sound. Very full and present, but with a slight raw edge. Great guitar work too.

 

[Zephyrus]

So, if I make a racist comment that I don't mean to be racist, should I just add (no racism) to the end of it in the vein of (no homo)?

What an terrible idea.

 

[waif]

I think he was joking

 

[The Ozzman]

I was joking

 

[Zephyrus]

The ignorance and bigotry on this board is so loose it's hard to tell whether its just humor or truly reflective of subconscious racist notions.

 

[Woolie Wool]

What an terrible idea.

Unfortunately, it's also a common idea.

"I don't mean to be racist, but I think black people are criminals."
"I don't mean to be homophobic, but we shouldn't let homos run around in women's clothing."
"I don't mean to be sexist, but women should stay home and raise children instead of pursuing a career."

And so on.

 

[S<issors]

Yes, blacks that are into metal are actually nice to be around unlike the ones who act like stupid gangsters imitating gangster rap.

there are plenty of dumbass white kids into rap as well.

 

[Woolie Wool]

Black people make up about 20% of the US population. Hip-hop and R&B (modern R&B sounds like hip-hop ballads with singing these days, so they're pretty much the same) couldn't come close to its current domination of mainstream pop just on the support of black people. There are probably more white people listening to it than black people.
