Mikael Akerfeldt's Best Of 2006 list!

Musicians..... i don't really listen to what they have to say about other bands. Once they've made their own contributions to music I find it hard to say they can judge other music which might build on what they're doing themselves.

Eyes of Fire hurt my ears. They were so fucking loud. All it was was noise. No one did anything but stand still while they played. Craptastic. We shoulda had Pelican.

Truer words never posted on a forum.

I swear, they were absolutly horrid. The only person in that band with a smidge of talent was the drummer. And that whole 5 minutes of nothing but feedback... ugh!
lol.

What no one can understand is a Viking Metal band picking Christina Aguilera, and Eric Peterson from Testament picking My Chemical Romance.

Theyre actually both pretty decent albums, much better than alot of teh shit posted as album of the year by other musicians, and IMO, better than the fucking slayer and tool releases (at least, more entertaining, which is what really matters in the end...because something that isnt entertaining doesnt hold you over for long and as such lacks replay value)


I personally wouldnt call either a 'best of 2006' but hey, id rather see them than all that remains and vader, and in flames...who were also mentioned.
 
Would you rather see them than Katatonia, Motörhead, Ihsahn, Moonspell, Strapping Young Lad, The Devin Townsend Band, and so on?

WOW!
 
people need to quit being so damn elitist on here. who gives a shit what any of those musicians listen to. it's just reading material. btw, all you guys who only listen to "underground' music and brag about it piss me off because the only reason you do it is because you think you are so hardcore and non-conformist. kiss my ass. to each his own.
 
who told you I only listen to underground music? It doesn't matter to me if it's underground or mainstream. What matters is if it sounds good or not, if it's a band of good musicians or not, if they've good songwriting (no matter the style they play). My Chemical Romance doesn't definitely apply in any of those aspects.

Hmmm...?

But you're right in that people who listen to only underground then brag about it frustrate me. They miss out on so much and they have no idea. I guess it's their loss so I shouldn't care.
 
sorry pain, i wasn't directly speaking to you. i was more talking to others that have posted on this thread. i agree with ^ you guys on radio. i don't ever listen to it anymore around here, all it is is top 40 trash. only good stuff is done by the college station on sunday nights after 10.
