Darkane Thread

[makethestringscry]

I was bored so i'd thought i'd start a thread about one of my favorite metal bands. Thoughts and opinions? I personally, think they're the best technical/thrash metal band around. Christofer Malmström, Peter Wildoer, Jörgen Löfberg, and Klaus Ideberg are all insane musiciains.

 

[Detric]

ok band not great imo

 

[Opethian666]

Very good musicians, some very nice songs too, but too bad the song structures are often so simple and predictable. It's the same problem I have with Dark Tranquillity.

 

[NFU]

the album before this last one had some potential i thought. but their first 2 albums and the latest didnt strike me whatsoever. so i dont know...i dont have much to say about them.

 

[makethestringscry]

I love the varied lack of 4/4

 

[Opethian666]

I loved the electric violin or whatever it was on Rusted Angel.

 

[makethestringscry]

Yeah, they always have some sort of epic intro to their albums.

 

[Opethian666]

If they didn't often have bland choruses, predictable and boring song structures, and a different tone for the guitars and different production, then they could be one of my favorite bands. The potential is definitely there, but the way they are now they're an ok band but nothing special.

listened to a couple albums but they never really stood out to me

 

[Keith!]

I have a couple of albums, i have only listened to them a couple of times. Some pretty decent riffing but bored me a bit. Might give them another try.

as if you are the authority on pointing out horrible bands....

 

[TheButcher]

decent band, not that great, but better than most bands in the same style

 

[Jon Snow]

[Pethical]

decent band, not that great, but better than most bands in the same style

+1, nb, but nothing mindblowing

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

horrible band

Well, they're no Thy Serpent, that's for sure...

Sorry man, I usually leave off of you, but that was too easy. You just handed that to me

But, in order to stay on topic, why do you think they're horrible?

Too many reasons. They have atrocious guitar riffs that suck, and go absolutely nowhere, and sound like circus riffs, they are boring, the singer's lame melodies and singing style make things even worse, there songs are not good, Much better bands out there.
