The quality of this band is not a matter of your opinion.

[DiscipleOfPlato]

The Sword

Traditional, no-bullshit heavy metal act from Austin, Texas. Barael's Blade is the soundtrack to a stampede. And they're even better live...

 

[Jean-Pierre]

THIS FUCKING ROCKS!

 

[Jean-Pierre]

Holy shit, I love how they fucking blend the Melvins and Sleep style doom with the more traditional style doom and add Maiden-esque riffs along for the hell of it. What a fucking awesome band.

 

[Ironbird666]

Wow, that was some good shit! That was definitely some of the best doom I've heard in a while, I think I might need to get my hands on the demo.

 

[Erik]

it's metal, it's heavy, i like it

edit: HOT TIP: official website http://www.swordofdoom.com/ has mp3 samples that aren't shit in quality and also aren't on myspace which of course is useless junk

 

[Krilons Resa]

This is some REALLY fucking good stuff. I need to get in contact with this band.

 

[Krilons Resa]

The bassplayer is wearing a Hammers of Misfortune shirt.

Even more points...

 

[R.I.P.2]

This is very cool.

 

[Mr_Haze]

Very good.

 

[Thraxz]

Good stuff. It's like... Ozzy... with more talent.

 

[The Devil's Steed]

Pretty good stuff. And the band being from Texas is a plus, since I may get a chance to see them live.

 

[D-KOM]

Mmh, it´s not really my cup of tea, but the sound is good and you hear that the musicians know how to play, and also know how to write interesting songs. Cool stuff!

As opposed to, say, a MIDI file looped ad nauseaum? In the Indo-European tradition, of course.

No, I'm just saying that those bands usually have a really generic sound, and never do anything creative or original, and they have no intention of doing so. Little artistic integrity. I hate those kind of bands.
