The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

Manilla Road were a stunted enigma that over time became the object of morbid fascination for fans of obscure, generic-sounding metal bands. At its core, Crystal Logic is an attempt to combine the doomy vibe of Black Sabbath with the melodic energy of the NWOBHM and the esoteric lyrics of Blue Oyster Cult.

As it stands, Manilla Road were born too late, unable to compete with their more advanced contemporaries, and to this day can only be seen as an inferior knockoff of bands with much more vision and songcraft.

HAHAHA how can anyone even think this without drooling all over themselves?!
 
I seriously do not understand what genre they are! What the FUCK GENRE IS SYL. They don't even sound like metal sometimes...they sound like...really fucking hardcore techno or something.
