Metal Bands That Suck...8-]]

[Mort Divine]

Rotting Christ, and the rest of the Greek scene tbh, flowery melodramatic crap with a production/aesthetic gimmick.

lol

You've never listened to Rotting Christ in your life and if you did it was Triarchy onward (Triarchy still rules anyways) because this opinion is impossible to have

Seriously stick to your prog nonsense and bitch about black metal not having riffs

Don't try to have real opinions

 

[CiG]

I can almost endorse this. If they put out a couple more albums as bland as the last two, I'll agree.

To answer your other question, I've only heard Meliah Rage's debut but I liked it, Mr. Bungle I can take or leave.

In what world is that not fruity? Keyboard-driven pseudoextreme metal, it's no more heavy or aggressive than, say, Edge of Sanity. I mean yeah, they'd get even worse later, the first album has some generic trad/power mixed in, but that's it.

The only world it is fruity in is the one in which you aren't a desperate virgin

Sick burn girlfriend

Mr. Bungle is gay just like Mort

Asphyx without Van Drunen is better than with him tbh

Haven't heard any afaik, post a song

Don't know a particular song but I know generally it is better. I've sampled.

That Rotting Christ song is a lot better than Avenged Sevenfold, Lamb of God, Pantera and Trivium.

Yet the other bands are making more money and have more recognition

What do you like about it? I'm listening to the title track of Non Serviam right now and it makes no sense how people can call this good music. It's some of the most simplistic traditional metal imaginable, these chord progressions are disgustingly light. The entire idea of "melodic black metal" is largely a myth, this music is virtually indistinguishable from 80s metal in terms of technique and writing. Without the slightest sarcasm, an album like Avenged Sevenfold's City of Evil is darker, more visceral, better-written, and more true to metal ideals than anything from early Rotting Christ.

Hillary Clinton makes more money and has more recognition than Donald Trump does.

And that is automatically a bad thing because...?

 

[The Ozzman]

Because politics are a direct metaphor to metal

Get outta here you yellow fuccboi.

Because there's nothing else going for it and there are literally hundreds of forgotten, mediocre trad/USPM bands from the 80s that were doing it better (albeit without lame keyboards and a drum machine and sappy post-Metallica harmony lines).

How much money have the following bands made?

The Beatles
Deep Purple
Led Zeppelin
Rush
Pink Floyd

Are these bands lesser quality?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

That Asphyx video won't play for copyright reasons here, listening to some rehearsal version of it, I guess this sounds alright but I would still get bored very quickly with a full album of this. Dream Death did this much better.

Sure, they make about as much money as Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Justin Bieber.

I like mediocre/trad USPM from the 1980's. Add a raw, evil atmosphere to it and some vocals from hell and I'm happy.

Still better than Avenged Sevenfold.
