Well, on the bright side, none of these crappy "old school" bands will be allowed into the competition next year.:p

Yeah because when bands like Blood Red Throne start ruling the roost, we might as well just pack it in and all go home. "Oh well, it was fun while it lasted..." :loco:
 
Bracket #1
Metallica

Bracket #2
Destroyer 666

Bracket #3
Kreator

Bracket #4
Primordial
 
He has a point, though. Without Maiden, Sabbath, Priest, Metallica and Bathory, some other bands might have a reasonable shot.

Which negates his comment on "crappy old school bands."

That was where I was coming from with my post anyway.

True. I mean nothing crappy bout Bathory or Sab.

Maiden schmaiden, priest schmiest.

He's fairly a noob, though. I mean c'mon, the guy thinks project hate and deathspell omega are the end all, be all of metal. And thinks classics like graveland and samael are gay. give him time to expand and realize better stuff was released before 2000 :p
 
:lol: I love how an OBVIOUS TROLLING POST inflames the entire forum populace.

And yes, essentially what I'm getting at is that since you all have such an overbearing sense of blinding nostalgia, I look forward to a tournament where every band is actually judged for their music.

J: You generalize more than I do, holy fuck.:lol: :p
 
Noone has an "overbearing sense of blinding nostalgia", it's just that nearly everyone except you has the ability to judge music not by age or notoreity, but by quality.

Ironic seeing as how I have been continually flamed for being the one person who points out people should cast their votes according to which band they like more. (aka find to be a higher "quality") Ask JK, I'm sure age and nostalgia affected his vote oh so much less than mine.:lol:

AKA (legendary band 1) isn't a worse band than others in this competition because they came out in the _0s, they're worse because their music isn't as good. You people tend to think I'm "all about modern music" which simply isn't the case. I just think people are fooling themselves as to why a band is relevant to them. I'll know full well that people hate Opeth and see why, despite their being my first band, unfortunately, no else here seems to be able to do that. I'm just honestly surprised at how people completely fail in every way to be able to discuss this around here.

Maybe all this is because you repeatedly say stuff that makes these "assumptions" we make seem quite obvious?
