The all-time worst metal album according to you

[JenniferGentle]

I worship and adore Alice in Chains as well... but I haven't yet heard the new album, nor do I really know much about Alice in Chains nowadays, because it just doesn't seem "right". I love Jar of Flies too though, mmm. Perfection. I love putting that on while driving alone.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

New record??? Who's singing on it?

 

[Dead_Lioness]

"completely", my black ass. I could go on and on and complain about their "fall from grace", but I won't. To say that Dead Heart in a Dead World is FLAWLESS is a load of garbage. To say that the self titled is flawless is a load of garbage. Hell, even Politics and DNB have flaws. I'm not discrediting Nevermore's current ability. I just think it's a bit... off... to say that Nevermore is completely flawless. Guitar solos, vocal lines, lyrics, riffs. The only thing has has been 100% consistent and flawless would be Van.

But I love every single thing they released.... therefore they are flawless to me...

 

[Dead_Lioness]

but don't come at me with yngwei as a sub for best solo. he's fast and started some cool stuff... but he's boring and repetetive.

heh, I agree... Yngwi is a a big circus on the guitar... so much technical BS there is no content behind.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

yes, Yngwie is fast... it's only a shame that people say that because everyone else says it... and they probably judge that based on his newer material (previously stated within the last 10 years).

No, I actually have 3 of him old albums from when *I* was in highschool...

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I think The River Dragon is a fucking awesome song. I also think that what one person may feel about one song doesn't necessarily mean it's factual, but the opposing opinion doesn't either. The River Dragon solo isn't the most technical of all solos, but if someone feels that's the greatest solo of all time, then that's his or her opinion.

I personally think Time by Pink Floyd is the greatest solo of all time, but if you ask all the guitar dorks who think that just because a song has shredding it makes it a better song, they'd probably disagree and call you all kinds of names. It's all a matter of opinion.

I personally think that Yngwie Malmsteen is boring as hell, no matter how fast and technical he may be. I'll take Nuno Bettencourt over Yngwie any day of the week.

If someone thinks a band is flawless, then IN THEIR OPINION, they are flawless. Let's not crucify people for their personal taste.

Exactly.





Plus... I have to say... I felt again so wierd to give Nevermore a comliment..
I'm so out of the loop. :zombie:

 

[azal]

yngwie's first three albums are dope imo.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

They're good, but they bore me to no end nowadays...
some things you just can't listen to anymore... and that's ok with me... haha

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Will mentioned the other day how he "overlistened" to Nevermore and it worries me because I did the same. Now I'm stressing about not over listening to my current favorite bands. What a stupid thing to actually worry about eh?

 

[Dead_Lioness]

It's rare but some bands get it from me.. I would listen to their albums again and again and again and again and again and again.........and will no get sick of it...
Last time I played nevermore?

hmmm... I believe it was 2-3 weeks ago....

 

[schenkadere]

yngwie's first three albums are dope imo.

His work with Alcatrazz is his best IMO...but Rising Force is an absolute classic. I was in high school when this stuff came out and it changed the direction of the guitar.

 

[Narmoth]

where you get Jens from that?

Jens played on the album I bought, not on that take. That song is obviously not on the album I bought, or I wouldn't ever buy it.

 

[darkblade]

i saw AIC live last year with their new singer. he actually did a really good job. of course no layne but he's a really good replacement.

 

[Anvil]

SYL is probably the heaviest melodic band.

 

[Anvil]

And to get back on topic...

 

[Dead Winter]

SYL is probably the heaviest melodic band.

gotta agree with you there.

 

[Anvil]

I say probably because it's the heaviest band I'm aware of.

Devin Townsend is a genius though.

 

[Dead Winter]

The utter hilarity of Ziltoid automatically makes him a legend.

 

[Anvil]

True. I absolutely love that album. I must say, I probably play it 2 times a week, minimum.

 

[-Syl-]

when I want to laugh a lot, I always listen to centvrion
one of the worst bands ever
sound sample, enjoy
I have a huge collection of really crappy bands.
