Second Wave of Thrash Metal (SWOTM)

[Internally Deformed]

Yeah most retro death acts suck. There are a few bands like Ignivomous that I dig, but I don't find myself listening to them all that often.

 

[Krow]

I also share standard regurgitated opinions about new bands playing an old style but also bitch about new styled albums in the genre, said everyone on this forum.

 

[Baroque]

Hey now everyone is a fairly inclusive term

 

[Internally Deformed]

I wish fewer retro/core bands sucked so I could have a more divergent opinion.

 

[Baroque]

There's a huge difference between retro and core, I don't see how you're lumping those together

Your posts are boring.

 

[Baroque]

Your posts are boring.

Your posts often contain errors.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Core and retro metal don't generally suck? As to lumping them in together, reread Krow's post and try to think creatively how my response might apply. Also, become more interesting.

If you're implying that core is the only 'new styled albums in the genre' then you've made another error. Also knowing Krow's tastes I highly doubt he was talking about core. I'm not here to entertain you. If you make a worthwhile point then we can have a more interesting discussion however.

No retro metal doesn't 'generally' suck.

Yeah, no shit buddy.

f you're implying that core is the only 'new styled albums in the genre'

I wish I actually was implying this, or implying that there's no difference between core music and retro music. That might actually make for an interesting argument. As I'm obviously not, though, you're being tiresome.

Then articulate your thought more clearly because there's more than 1 way of interpreting it.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Baroque's idea of good posting: finds posts that can at a push be interpreted to mean something dumb. Interprets them to mean something dumb to make himself feel clever.

 

[CiG]

I try not to reject entire swathes of bands because they belong to a meme/tag, I've heard plenty of "retro death" and "retro thrash" that I like.

But I always prefer the bands that put their own spin on an old school sound.

 

[LOUD METAL]

This forum is fucking great. Too bad I don't have popcorn.

 

[CiG]

Video game thrash.

 

[The Butt]

No retro metal doesn't 'generally' suck.

Yes it does. Just some less than others.

Retro-trad the least (I'd say it's about a 50/50 split).
Retro-death is real hit or miss but there is still good to be found.
And retro-thrash is the light beer equivalent of regular thrash. As the old saying goes, Light Beer = Intense Queer.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

At this point, atmospheric black metal is just retro-Burzum.

 

[CiG]

You should name some of the main offenders Butt, interested to know who you think the stinkers of retro are.

That's why've stopped listening to new music.

Evile
Fueled by Fire
Revocation
Warbringer
Bonded by Blood

The ones that spring to my mind off the top of my head.

I could just be biased because I don't even really like a lot of thrash except for the classics, I fully admit that; but I just find 99% of retro-thrash to be rehashes of stuff from thirty years ago, but done worse in every conceivable way.
