Most Overrated Metal Band

[PaulRawNerve]

i understand what you mean about DB ,, i know not everyone likes em, but i really like their sound, have done right since "for all tid" !!! ..

but yeah, i reckon it would be so much better to see loads of enslaved, gorgoroth, marduk, setherial, nigrescent and the like all over the place, rather than cradle (especially cradle)!!! ..

 

[PaulRawNerve]

by the way, npearce.. thanks for the comments there ..

*paul runs around being cool!! ehehee!

 

[Wanderingblade]

Paul: I agree Opeth are good... its just when everyone acts like they're the best metal band to ever set foot on the planet I start saying overrated. One of the best, yes... but the blind unwavering godhead most give them?

 

[Thanatos]

Opeth, without a doubt

 

[PaulRawNerve]

i dont think they are lords of all, but there is still no doubting their talent and songwriting ..

anyway, surely bands like linkin park and limp bizkit and all them should be winning this most overrated thing, seeing as they are RIDICULOUSLY huge, and SHITE!!! ..

unless some of you lot actually like em!!???
heeheeeee!! ..

 

[Wanderingblade]

Paul: I pointed that out towards the beginning

 

[PaulRawNerve]

ah okay, sorry .. i had a look through about 5 or 6 pages of this thread, musta missed that .. i was told about meshuggah getting a slagging so the steam musta clouded my eyes!!! .. rah!!

but it is true though aint it about linkin park and the others!! they are the most overrated bands by far

 

[Wanderingblade]

Oh I don't know... I've always felt a sneaking admiration for their marketing managers

 

[PaulRawNerve]

oh yeah, i guess you gotta admit that the people who do the work on behalf of LP or LB or PR or whoever .. although i wish whoever was doing the work for nickleback would STOP!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Wanderingblade]

Nickleback are actually run by a computer program that produces all their songs and lines

So, just get a good hacker...

 

[PaulRawNerve]

crap computer program!!! was it done on the spectrum 48k ,, that one with rubber keys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[jenfa]

actually my grandad is the one responsible for the computer program! but don't worry cos i'm killing him off for the inheritance, oh, and the creation of nickelback of course!!!!

 

[PaulRawNerve]

*paul comes along to lend a hand!!!

sorry, thats really bad saying things like that, so im gonna have to take you away for a good spanking!!!!..

mind you, a creator of nickleback does need to suffer!!!!

*paul gets his pitchfork out!!

 

[Profano]

Opeth

 

[Profano]

Maybe I should have included the phrase "Why do you think they are overrated?" in my original statement (see first post on this thread). How could somebody possibly think Opeth is overrated?

Rush playing metal, great but boring...

 

[GONETribalchemy]

Morbid Angel.

@ Profano to your Nargaroth quote, yes, such statements remind of my grandad talkin'about the war after many glasses red wine. Yes, but he's dead now, and Black Metal's still raging out there, np.

 

[Profano]

Yes, but he's dead now, and Black Metal's still raging out there, np.

yes, the real deep...

 

[Astral Poetry]

In Flames
Napalm Death
Manowar

 

[AndICried]

Ok. I'd just like to remind everybody that this is ultimatemetal.com.

Opeth and other similar bands may be treated like demi-Gods here, but if you walk up to a stranger and let them listen to Opeth they'd probably say that the vocals are "rubbish". They wouldn't hear 90% of the tune.

Hypocrisy

Burzum
