I got in trouble in one of the other threads on this forum for picking on Paul so digging at Bruce is probably a fair thing to some

Not really a band I'd see live anyway but why the fuck would they tour with Shattered Sun. Surely that's enough to drive a good swag of metal heads away from the gig? Shattered Sun aren't terrible, not great either, but they aren't metal enough even for AOD.

Ya they are both replacement singers. But one brought their band to a new level and one did not. Bad dig by Bush lolI got in trouble in one of the other threads on this forum for picking on Paul so digging at Bruce is probably a fair thing to some

And unfortunately toured with Testament as well. I think they might be signed to Chuck's management.

Yeah that's why I gave them a chance in the first place, but they definitely aren't metal.
I remember having an discussion an Aussie site about the pointlessness of all the different genres in metal and how it seems people just make them up to suit their mood. Several of the long term metal experts claimed we had to have genres in metal to ensure gigs with unlike bands didn't happen. They were trying to convince people that genres existed so that a gig didn't have bands like Obituary and Motley Crue on the same bill. For every silly example they gave a counter example was offered and in the end they changed their claim to exclude festvals, because apparently that was unfair. Was a funny argument but putting AOD and SS on the same bill (or Testament and SS) pretty much proves that America doesn't only do gigs based on stupid genre names either.

I wish I still used that forum. I'd ask to explain how the same theory is applied to the gig in Iceland in June were Slayer are headlining such acts as Bonnie Tyler

Good to see the animosity between band members is still there for the journos to pick up on. I wonder how many fights in the music industry could have been dead and buried if it wasn't for brilliant music journos rehashing these same bullshit stories time and time again. At best most of this story was created 20 years ago, some more when RIP was re-released and now some reporter has to ask Chris how he feels about something that happened so friggen long ago it's gown mould, then some dipshit website creator only bothers to post that part of the whole interview and nothing about what the guy is current doing.

This fucking guy lol he really is trying to get mileage out of this tribal thing. Yeah you're from Brazil. What's your last name Max? Oh Cavalera? Pretty sure that's Italian, so what tribe are you Max?

I know they link to the audio of the full interview but reading what these sites offer it really does make it seem like Chris has done nothing else with his 20+ years and he's just come out of the dark to talk about Dave.

Yeah it's kind of funny to see all these reactions. Tom's really been hinting at this since about 2010 when he had the neck surgery, and really who'd blame him, putting on a Slayer show (nearly any show) night after night can't be easy and if being active on stage in whatever form a person chooses is such a huge part of their enjoyment like Tom said headbanging was to him it really shouldn't be a surprise to all these musos because it wasn't to the fans.

I don't have a problem with it. Nationalism is a big thing to some people and if he wants to put tribal music in his metal it's not that different to bands like Tengger Calvary putting Monglian influences in all theirs, anonymous aussie band Dead Kelly using didgeridoos in their extreme metal , or Marty and his Japanese influenced metal.
