Ka-ching!
But yeah, he's more of a pop/goth-rocker than anything these days

Which is why he should have gotten the Isis. Meh-shuggah and Depeche Mode over Isis. Shame, shame.
Seriously, I already knew which 4 albums I was going to buy today, the others were backups in case the store was out of stock. Plus I knew I had to include some "real" metal albums like At the Gates and Suffocation (I still plan on getting those), otherwise half the forum would've ignored this thread. I TRICK JOO.Doomcifer said:Ya, it didnt matter whatsoever.
Can't say I've ever gotten past Robert Smith's voice. It's really irksome to me, but I don't hate them with a passion like I used to at least. Someday I'll pick one up and give it a whirl.matt99_crew said:
Seriously. Fucking wow. I don't know how ANYONE into extreme metal can bash these dudes, such amazing talent and emotion, and about as original as it can get these days.matt99_crew said:
Probably. :Smokedev:Erik said:
Listening to all metal, all the time is much more laughable, like this:Henrik Main said:Not getting the Suffocation and the AtG is just laughable
. Seriously. A lot of you dudes that listen to metal and metal exclusively just crack me up. Why on earth do you purposely limit yourself when there is SO MUCH OTHER GREAT MUSIC out there!? Even when I was 13 and wearing black clothes and Slayer shirts on a daily basis, pissed off at the world, my parents, and my peers, I still listened to Nirvana, the Ramones, the Doors, and any other number of non-metal groups. Man, open up a little!Yeah I thought that was clear long ago. I've seen fucking Justin Timberlake in concert for fuck's sake! I am so god damn untr00 I can't even spell it correctly.lurch70 said:

As far as The Cure and Robert Smith go, I completely understand the vocals thing. That was my reaction at first. Same thing w/ Morrissey. Eventually, vocals become one of the main things I love about both of their stuff.
I've been a fan for a long time and think everything they did up through Disintegration is excellent. They've got a lot of variety in their catalog, and some styles may be more appealing at first. But if they ever get their claws in you, you'll be hooked for sure.

I'll come to you first if/when I decide to take the Cure plunge. 
Man this Meshuggah rules. I can't believe how different their albums are (DEI, Chaosphere, and I anyhow), given that within 8 seconds you know it can't be any band besides Meshuggah, but each one is so distinct. That is one of the biggest factors of an amazing band to me, and these fuckers fit the bill. Wonderful wonderful band.

haha. I'll get Isis soon enough btw, you already know this. I almost picked up some more Neurosis, but I'm not sure where to go next. I have Through Silver in Blood and the Neurosis & Jarboe disc. Honestly, I prefer the one with Jarboe because it's more drone/creepy/whatever and I dig that vibe. Which one do I need now?

Times of Grace
But knowing you, you might prefer Eye of Every Storm or A Sun that Never Sets. They are softer, yet much heavier, if you know what I mean. ASTNS can be........scary at times. A very dark emotional album.

And The Cure fucking rules it, you queer.
This is why I miss you on your sabbaticals.

As much as I do think you'll like it, be wary. I know BWD bought it and it has taken him months to appreciate it. He might have something to say here.

World's Greatest Vocalist
Well, I for one am glad you got Violator. Fucking amazing, that album is.
"Policy of Truth." "Enjoy the Silence." "Halo." You can't lose.

What's the Depeche Mode song that goes "I'm... taking a ride... with my best friend!"??? Used to have it on my playlist a year ago, but my computer crash wiped it away... 
Google says the song is Never Let Me Down Again. Allmusic says that is found on Music for the Masses. You're welcome. 
See what kind of variety of music listeners dig Depeche Mode? I remember when I used to hate them: before I ever heard them. That was foolish.
J., thanks I'm listening right now.

Yeah, they rule.
So do The Cure, Joy Division and Bauhaus... Fuck, I even like a lot of modern goth stuff like Switchblade Symphony and Collide.
That Neurosis album is boring as fvck on first listen, but gets better. I'm still iffy on it, though.
I rape Lenin's corpse.

Music For the Masses is the other Depeche Mode album I like a whole lot. It's not as good as Violator, but it's still a good one.Black Winter Day said:What's the Depeche Mode song that goes "I'm... taking a ride... with my best friend!"???
