Well if thats your priority, then you are doomed to lesser and lesser options when it comes to music.
If your priorities are: inspired melodies, good riffs and passionate singing, then there is some hope.
Even though i dont exactly know your view on whats a "rehash" when it comes to metal, or music in general.

try this 'cocke tune on for size ... this one has some strange mix of styles ... but very seamless

it's okay. listened to it twice a few hours ago and have long since forgotten it though.lurch70 said:
for new metal, something new is my priority right now. i need something fresh to get my balls rolling, or something. most other genres i just need something of high quality, but with metal i've been exposed to so much that i need something new to pique my interest. i can exhaust subgenres within like 10 albums though, so i know i'm very picky.IOfTheStorm said:

I have to agree here with the emphasis on originality (or at least something with enough distinction to keep from sounding regressive) although I don't move between subgenres as quickly, and some temporary obsessions have become permanent for me. I don't place originality and/or experimentation for it's own sake over quality, but the more you hear, the harder it is to be satisfied with just the basics, at least for me.

God damn, Nad. I know you like good bass playing, why haven't you checked out Stargazer yet? I was whoring them like crazy about a month ago.
*sigh*
Yousendit on its way.

i see meshuggah is joining opeth and tool in having fanboys that go "man if you don't understand this band's greatness you are an absolute idiot and can not understand true art, get the fuck out"
yeah prolly. i can see why people dislike meshuggah but just to out and out shit on them is sorta silly. i guess it's to compensate for foolz like me saying OMG I LUV THEM LOLZ.

I'm kinda apathetic towards this band, the stuff by them that I've heard and liked was the old shit that wasn't all techy. Well, it was techy, but not to the same extent as the new stuff... Not that I've heard anything post-Chaosphere.
