Controversial opinions on metal

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

No, it just sounds like shit, I dislike it.

The chick in iwrestledabearonce is fucking brutal live. And Battle of Mice owns.

Queer. Try Rituals of the Oak.

Try Rituals of the Oak.

I just don't think her voice fits the music.

 

[CF87]

Angela sucks and looks like a man.

 

[SentinelSlain]

iwrestledabearonce

God, I hate that band.

Jex Thoth and The River are probably the two best female bands around right now. Jex thoth's s/t and is just mesmerizing and both EPs are amazing, and the river are a great wall of sound and emotion. Rituals of the Oak did not hit me, but the Cauchemar EP is pretty awesome on first listen and french lyrics with sweet riffs gives me balls a tingle

 

[WCannibal]

Silencer's vocals are great.

 

[damnromulans]

iwrestledabearonce is a real band? sounds like some emo kid turned indie kid's AIM screen name.

haha Silencer are one of those bands who would be GREAT if they released a "Party Time Karaoke" version of their albums where you provide your own vocals.

Everyone needs to listen to Sentinel Beast.

 

[Windie]

August Burns Red is fucking great.

Symphonic power metal fucking sucks.

 

[DrSkye]

I'll second both of those.

 

[Windie]

awww yeah

Don't talk shit about Christopher Lee's wizard voiceovers on Rhapsody albums or I'll shove a computer up your ass

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

I actually like some "prom dress metal" with the slutty looking girl crooners, like Leaves Eyes and Battlelore. I think the problem with most female metal vocalists is that they either A: Sound too operatic or B: sound too much like they're trying to outdo the men. Those dumb broads just need to sing naturally, in their own voice.

 

[damnromulans]

like Brad-chan said Doro Pesch is a really good frontwoman. She sounds metal as fuck but also incredibly feminine and just like she's doing her thing and living her life. No elements of operatic bullshit or try-hard crap.

"Prom dress metal" eh?

Christopher Lee's Charlemagne album/musical metal opera type thing is pretty bad.

But bless his heart, he's trying.

And cmon, an 80 year old getting into metal is pretty cool.
