Original/Creative Bands

[Darkstone]

I think Psycroptic (sorry if already posted) havea very unique style of Technical Death Metal, chekc them out at www.psycroptic.com

 

[Xeroth]

Oh, and Type-O-Negative, I think their videos showing vampyrism are really different to any one else's styles

 

[ohiogrinder]

no matter which way you look at it, COB still suck and always will.

 

[Xeroth]

everyone has their own opinion

 

[ohiogrinder]

Soulfly makes dumb music. Something like this is not even subjective.

agreed 100%

Max should've stuck with Sepultura, Roots non-withstanding.

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

without Max, Sepultura has dug themsleves a sepultura (i just found out that means grave in brazillian and i wanted to use it)

 

[Xeroth]

yeh, he says is on their Live in Sao Paulo DVD on the extras at some point

 

[Narg n Lamb]

what happened to Opeth on that list?

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

i was gunna put opeth in a post but i didnt feel like risking getting shot down for some stupid anti-opeth reason

 

[hibernal_dream]

I don't see a need for bringing Soulfly up. Even on Morbid Visions Sepultura mixed tribal rythyms with metal, Soulfly just mixed new Sepultura with Korn.

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

why talk about soulfly on the original/creative bands thing if no one seems to like them?

i'd have to say KISS was original and creative i mean look at them

o and Dio was original...not the band...Ronnie James Dio because he created this:

 

[Zephyrus]

what happened to Opeth on that list?

Opeth are certainly original but their influence on other bands is very limited. Most copycats are rarely successful.

There is only one Opeth. Accept no substitutes!

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

here here!

without Max, Sepultura has dug themsleves a sepultura (i just found out that means grave in brazillian and i wanted to use it)

It also means burial in Latin, and they speak Portugese in Brazil, not Brazilian.

/nitpick

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

You're welcome dude

On Topic:

Mithras, a band just recomended to me by VVVVV seems very original, which is especially out of the ordinary, because they are brutal death.

 

[Mort Divine]

Mithras are very original. Wicked Innocence as well

This seems to be another "best/most influencial metal bands ever" thread, like the one MasterOfLightning did.

Should there be a new thread to discuss CURRENTLY innovative bands?

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

well i think we should go back to the topic of originality rather than influence cause that is what this thread is supposed to be right?

My thread was better . I was thinking about actually doing one for the most important current bands, since every band on the other list is either split-up or past their prime. The current ones would be much harder to decide.

I think using the numbered list actually facilitated a lot debate and good conversation, whereas threads like this one just turn into people just naming a whole lot of bands without actually engaging the reasons for them.
