Katatonia vs. Anathema

[Papa Josh]

Rapture is very good, with Futile being a bit more deathly than their lastest...

Now, to address some points:

To J: calling Anathema off key, yet hailing Katatonia confuses me as their vocalists are of the same ilk.

And when discussing a band's body of work, your remarks mean shit to me if you haven't even heard all of the albums of both bands...

Otherwise, stick to "I like the early Katanonia better than the early Anathema" or or vice versa, or... you get the picture.

Finally, in regards to posting the poll in the bands' forums, I don't give a fuck if some assmunch decides he wants to start a forum war. I think we here at the Royal Carnage house have shown that we are quite capable of defending our own and winning.

So, the next person who wants a mouthful of Man Batter, go ahead and start the fire... bring down the hammer...

Anyone know what's going on in the Rapture camp...their website has been mostly dormant since Withering was released two years ago...great album.

As for Anathema, I'm not sure if Alt4 would be a good starting point, there are some immediately accessible tracks like Fragile Dreams and Empty, but I found that album to be more of a grower (now my second favorite from them), especially its second half...Judgement would be a safer bet IMO.

"A Fine Day to Exit" is an excellent album.

Hailing Katatonia? Can you read? When did I "hail" Katatonia? I simply said they had more quality releases (which is the truth).

And if you'll read further, you'll notice I said I don't care for anything after Tonight's Decision. I totally agree that Jonas has off-key voclas, but Vincent outdid him in the crap department on Eternity and The Silent Enigma.

Strike 1.

And when discussing a band's body of work, your remarks mean shit to me if you haven't even heard all of the albums of both bands...

Lets see, I've heard every Katatonia album, except the demo (which is not an album), and every Anathema album except the latest one. I'd say I know what I'm talking about.

Strike 2.

See above. Get the picture?

Strike 3.

Who's next?

 

[Haltiamies]

Anathema is better, but Katatonia is good as well

You take shit quite literally don't you? Does this cause you many problems in life?

Man, you don't EVER know what you're talking about... when looking into new bands, rarely do I take your word for it.

Consider yourself, pimpbitch slapped.

Yes. No.

Your loss. I rule.

Right back atcha.

 

[Papa Josh]

Yes. No.

Sounds like denial to me...

Your loss. I rule.

In what fantasy land?

Right back atcha.

You can't, you ain't a pimp like Da Papa!

Now, sit quietly and take my Man Batter like a good lil' girl. :Smug:

[Erik]

[IOfTheStorm]

Epistel:

Well, call me a girl then.

Justin Timberlake ain't that bad, there's worse... like Clay Aiken.

Timberlake is actually somewhat embraced by the black r&b crowd, a hard crowd for a white boy to crossover to, so I give him his props...

Plus, he was bangin' Britney... yum..

 

[Dead_Lioness]

Excuse me for not reading this whole thread before posting, just had to say that Anathema takes the crown big time.

Anathema rules.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

Judgement (especially that one) is one of the worst albums ever.

I never liked your musical taste IOfTheStorm (except Orphaned Land I think)
SO I'll ignore this idiotic comment about Judgment.
