Well I just dislike them and never got into them, so perhaps I could just plead general ignorance for now. I never thought of them as epic, though.

Nile only get attention for the astonishing amount of work Karl Sanders puts into their lyrics.

Which is a shame, they shouldn't be getting any attention at all.

lol at brutal death metal elitism

Being one of the best death metal bands in over a decade probably entitles them to some attention IMO.

You are quite the jokester.

I'm curious as to how many death metal bands you've heard in the last decade to make such a fucking ridiculous claim. What you're saying is no less (allegedly) insane than me claiming them not to be epic death metal. They're just regular old death metal to these ears...

 

[Necro Joe]

I didn't say them not being epic death metal was insane, just wrong. If you think I'm mad to say they're up with the elite then you have three options: you can make some kind of argument (since you seem to hold yourself as the authority, I've heard plenty of DM in the last ten years, thanks), you can accept that we look for different things in our heavy music (as we pretty much share no favourite bands anyway), or you can go back and listen to the brilliance of In Their Darkened Shrines and seek the depth, power, majesty and perfect mixture of melody and brutality that I find it serves up so well.

Nile is average

Nile is average

Yeah, pretty much.

Seriously Deron how long do we have to wait before we can negatively rep people again?

 

[unknown]

you're going to negative rep somebody for having a differing opinion?

 

[skeptik]

Everyone should just stop listening to brutal type death metal bands altogether because they all suck.

 

[Necro Joe]

I don't much like obnoxious, content free posts. Also I was talking about Mike27 who I've tried to neg rep like four times.

If you abuse it you'll see what waiting is all about....to get back on the site anyhow...

 

[Necro Joe]

You haven't answered my question.

 

[MetalAges]

You haven't answered my question.

I'm too busy reviewing your rep comments that you've given people, and deleting where necessary.

 

[Necro Joe]

If you'd like me to explain why I gave any of them I'd be more than happy to help you out.

 

[Matt]

You should explain why in the descibe thingy.

 

[skeptik]

This is the only casual board I've ever been to that actually takes rep seriously.

Is As I Lay Dying another metalcore band like BFMV?? And no one said a anything about Bloodthorn? WTF?
