I feel like even though it's absolute trash, I respect Metallica more for making that album. Death Magnetic, although I only listened to the singles, struck me as a cop-out. It was them trying to make the album they felt people wanted to hear. This is them doing what they want to do. It's not commercial at all. No one wants to hear this. But they dig it, and they're doing their own thing. I support that, even if I don't want to listen to it.

Oh god. What is this? Is it like he wants to sing but doesn't seem to know how?

Edit: Okay, the parts where he's actually singing aren't too bad.

Welcome back.

I'll just rank it with Illud on my list of "albums of which I have not heard a single minute of music and hopefully never will."

^ It’s entertaining to read the reviews on M-A though.

I thought it was kinda funny. I AM THE TABLE!

People seem to be ok with bands like Morbid Angel, Darkthrone and Metallica releasing shitty, godawful music because "it's their 10th album, what do you expect, bla bla bla". I don't think it's ok at all, I think it's really strange. You can't have released an Altars of Madness and then not realize that Illud Divinum Insanus is complete crap. These artists are all bullshitters.

I think the problem is that some of the most highly regarded bands have people who are too arty/trendy/gay and hence feel the need to incorporate shit influences once musical trends alter and their original style is seen as outdated by Paris Hilton.

Out there are people who like it, even if it's not their general audience. I don't see why a band should feel obligated to make only the music their fans want to hear.

Darkthrone has never released something even close to what either Morbid Angel or Metallic have done, you stupid kid.

I think it's a little annoying when people get mad about a band making an album for a different fan base. It's not like they sent out a personal letter saying "hey, guys, just wanna let you know that our next album will have the sound that you love. - X Band" It's their music. They can do whatever the fuck they want. Just don't listen to it.

I'm not sure why you posted that, but I love that song.

What? Who are these people? Last I checked there's been worldwide panning of Metallica and Morbid Angel. As to why you mentioned Darkthrone alongside those two bands, I haven't the slightest.

I'm older than you and yes they fucking have. There's nothing separating this from what they've actually been releasing lately.

No, you're not older than I am, but nice try.

Take your shitty opinions on newer Darkthrone to the GMD forum so I can sodomize you there instead of fucking up this thread.

 

[Onder]

New Darkthrone is washed out and fucking boring. BUT it will never contain the same amount of fail because what do you fucking expect? They are getting older and they enjoy this retro stuff. I can’t blame them really. The reason why Illud and Lulu suck so much is because it’s old guys thinking that they’re doing something innovative and fresh and failing horribly at it.
