Controversial opinions on metal

[Belligerent]

Yes, Painkiller was very solid, like a well-dried turd.

I'm still new to both bands, especially Accept, but I was definitely impressed with Breaker.

Dave Mustaine has the single most annoying voice in metal

fucking hate that douchebag

 

[no country for old wainds]

he sounds like a constipated duck

i still like his voice on peace sells

i'm considering doing a list of controversial opinions, i'm kinda lazy though

Do it. I'm feeling argumentative, and would love to blow a lot of hot air your way.

Assuming I know the bands you talk about.

Here's one: Darkthrone's Soulside Journey and Transilvanian Hunger are both good but overrated.

Also, any comments that go "how can you like X but not like Y?" are completely stupid, no matter what the situation is.

Transilvanian Hunger is one of the more properly rated albums there is.

Well I actually agree with you there. Both of those albums seem significantly lacking to me, whereas the two in-between are much more satisfying.

I also don't get all the love for Panzerfaust, which I find boring as fuck.

This post is loaded with fail.

Yeah, I know we have different standards and all. I'll just say that from a songwriting perspective ABITNS and UAFM seem much more interesting - especially the former, which kicks unimaginable quantities of ass.

As an addendum, though, I'll acknowledge that UAFM and TH are pretty similar, just that TH is more minimalistic and grainy. I just don't enjoy the added minimalism there.

vihris-gari's posts in this thread are as predictable as Life Sucks'.

Complexity and Black Metal aren't always reconcilable. It's about feel and passion, which I derive more from TH than the previous two. What's great about Panzerfaust is that it unites all the styles covered in the previous three albums.

 

[MasterOLightning]

I actually think TH is the most listenable of the classic Darkthrone albums.

 

[mutantllama]

I like ABITNS the best. But all are good

Well I have said most of that stuff already, and admittedly I don't listen to a lot of the same bands that you guys do, so I suppose that would make my posts in here predictable. Not that this thread doesn't already have 800 versions of the same 5-10 discussions in it.

Yeah, I think it's safe to say that I've never really connected with the "true passion" that drives black metal.

Agreed

 

[SentinelSlain]

I disagree, it's the one I can't get into. Anyway I'd like to retract a previous comment about slayer not being that good.

Show No Mercy, Hell Awaits and Reign in Blood are brilliant metal albums.

Not a controversial opinion, but I felt I had to get it straight.

Well thank god. We were all holding our breaths for that news.
