Controversial opinions on metal

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

If I actually had to listen to nu-metal, it'd be Deftones and I'd leave it at that.

Yeah dude; the new album is actually quite good, and I like most of White Pony. The best nu-metal album is Mudvayne - The End Of All Things To Come. Sweet disc.

Liar, the best nu-metal is Static-X "Wisconsin Death Trip"

 

[Dak]

Liar, the best Static-X is Static-X "Destroyer"

FYP

 

[damnromulans]

FYP

You mean "Cannibal?" It was OK but WDT is a little better.

They are dicks to fans though. Except Koichi but that's because he sucks at English.

 

[Dak]

I was referring to one specific song. The rest of Static X sucks. That song sucks from a talent perspective, but it's fun.

 

[damnromulans]

No one listens to Static-X for their instrumental virtuosity. "Fun" is the only thing to be found.

Mudvayne is actually musically/technically fucking good, especially Ryan goddamned Martinie.

 

[Windie]

Korn's first album is damn great

 

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

No. Just no.

 

[Windie]

Yes!

 

[Chanakya]

Mudvayne is actually musically/technically fucking good, especially Ryan goddamned Martinie.

If that's the bassist you're referring to, I'm inclined to agree. 4-5 years back or so, Mudvayne was the one band that I shared common ground with my "maggot" friends. I can't stand them much now but I used to really dig that guy's basslines, back in the day.

Loud guitars and yelled vocals =/= metal
Sorry.

Let me get this strait. Loud guitars.........And yelling into a microphone..........isn't metal? I'm speaking outside of trying to start a Slipknot argument.

I still like a small handful of Mudvayne songs.

Edit: Nickelback has loud guitars and yelling into a mic.

 

[CF87]

Faith No More -Angel Dust is the best Nu-Metal album by a long shot.

Would you call THIS metal?




Know your shit plz

I always have problems in this aspect with 'metal people', about metal music styles. For me the lyrics are important like the music itself.

Mayhem performed a song called "Chainsaw Gutsfuck." Does that make them goregrind?

Nickelback has loud guitars and yelling into a mic.

An dey make eh da sexy tiiiiiime!

:zombie: Seriously bro?

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

Agreed. They get shit on because no one actually stops to listen to them. It's metal. Get over it. Fanbase is composed almost entirely of idoits and fat 13 year old girls? Yes. Amazing musicians? No. Metal? Yes.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING WOMAN

I'm saying that folk metal is on average way better than drone
