Madonna and Pantera

[CliffBurton]

How can you actually like bullshit Mainsteam American metal? srsly.
Band: "Im angry at my government and people who dont understand me, I also drink!"
Bald Meathead : "getcha hellyeaahh!!"

Anyway, I've liked Pantera since I was 14 and heard cowboys from hell the first time, because I'm tr00.

Triple post jumped :O

 

[Swabs]

Fucking right! Every metalhead who doesn't like Pantera has tiny (or no) balls.

No, Pantera are just shit.

Do I really have to say it again?

 

[CliffBurton]

Opeth is also shit.
Blind Guardian would be nowhere without Tolkien
they also put no effort into any live shows.

ZOMG COMMENCE SWABS RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!!!!

 

[Corny]

Opeth: you're right
Blind Guardian: You're wrong, they're very energetic live (if you know their songs and can sing along).

 

[Swabs]

Good for you. I'm complaining about the ridiculously immature statements of "TEHOMG IF U DUNT LIEK PANTERA U R GAY".

That's like me saying anyone who doesn't like Opeth must be a simple minded being.

 

[Corny]

^You kept making statements like that all the time in the Battle Of The Bands thread.

EDIT: And stop taking these things always so mega serious.

Wait, what?

Best BG live song ever.

 

[Swabs]

Actually I'm going to have to watch that DVD again.

 

[Corny]

You can never get enough of ITTLG.

Well yeah, you are, and anyone that likes Opeth is a snobby cunt who thinks key changes and odd times are intelligent and unique.

And yeah. I've seen BG live, and nearly fell asleep at:
1) The Singer, that I wanted to see sing, didn't...the skinny powermetal nerds around me sang instead.
2) The bassist...NEVER moved his feet once...he swayed back and forth int he background.
3) The guitarist, stood still, head banging now and then..sometimes they would trade positions for 30 seconds, and walk back to their spot.

If I wanted to see a bunch of people standing around I'd buy a ticket to a baseball game.

And how is that video any different?
They are soo entertaining because their DVD has good lighting and changes angels frantically, along to the music :O

 

[Swabs]

The bassist is a session musician of course he isn't fucking going to get involved.

What would you rather they all run in circles whilst playing? And at least they do move a bit, I've seen Dream Theater live.

 

[Corny]

1.) could be annoying if you don't know the songs or if they haven't a personal meaning to you.
2.) The bassist is not part of the band, that's why he keeps a little bit in the background.
3.) I just disagree.

 

[KillerGon]

Tbh, I never really liked Pantera.

 

[Corny]

^Not surprising at all.

 

[Undefined]

I didn't get into Pantera (or metal really) until after Dime died, but I will say that it definitely did become a trend to wear Pantera gear after he died. I couldn't walk ten feet on campus without seeing someone in a Pantera shirt. It does get annoying when you ask these people what their favorite Pantera song is, and they can't even name a song besides Walk.

On top of all that, I hate how trendy it became to cover Pantera in the aftermath. Avenged Sevenfold covering Walk was a fucking atrocity, IMO. The only good Pantera cover I've ever heard is when Lamb of God, Soilwork, Devildriver, and Killswitch Engage collaborated to do a live cover of 5 Minutes Alone on 12/8/07 in Dallas. Great tribute to Dime in his hometown. Look it up on YouTube.

How can you even have the balls to judge anyone and accuse them of being trendy... ffs man!

In Flames does an entertaining version of Fucking Hostile on their DVD

Sinergy do a weird cover of it as well

Opeth is also shit.
Blind Guardian would be nowhere without Tolkien

No.

Actually I'm going to have to watch that DVD again.

You can never get enough of ITTLG.

I need to download it

Well yeah, you are, and anyone that likes Opeth is a snobby cunt who thinks key changes and odd times are intelligent and unique.

90% truth!

Tbh, I never really liked Pantera.

That's because you're mexican

Who cares if bassist is session or not? Metal shows are just that, a show. I like to see the musicians act as if it was such, opposed to a recital.

I'd rather they try to put on a show rather than just stand there expecting praise, and everyone in the audiance to love them at all times...which made them (mainly the singer) come off as a total ass. I guess they are more entertaining when you jerk off onto their lyrics everyday, causes a mental bond with them.

And yeah, DT was boring too.

 

[Leandro]

Well
I'm a snobby cunt.
I also think key changes and odd times are intelligent and unique.

So far, you're right!
