[LoKo]

Well,, I liked Projector way more. I did like that gothic stuff.

rahvin.

I heard some songs of natural born chaos. Dont you guys think soilwork sounds like Static X?

 

[Misanthrope]

I agree

@Rahvin: I also rank DD, NTB and then R2R, i think most people would rank that way dont you think?

 

[rahvin]

@misanthrope: yeah, i guess so. at least, provided one rates dd the best of those three, usually nbc comes second. but who knows what those in flames likers might think? they're a different species entirely.

rahvin. (doesn't know who static-x are)

I read a review at allmusic.com about "natural born chaos" saying that it sounds like Static X, So I tried listening to 3 of those songs and the voice sounds like static X, and the keyboards too. I didnt like the songs. Soilwork was way better in the other cd.

ya id have to say damage done is tops both, then NBC then RTR.
im new the board. all wave at me!! hah

the only reason you say that is because some reviewer said that. i heard NBC sounded like numetal so i didnt check it out for a while. then i heard some more people say how cool it was so i checked it out and it is a pretty decent album.

besides allmusic.com doesnt know SHIT about metal. i mean look at their ratings for some of the bands.

ok, thats your opinion... Im still thinking the voice of the singer sounds like static x. Soilwork is not numetal, I've never said it was. only the voice and the keyboards could be compared to static x.

 

[rahvin]

/me is extremely pissed everybody's still talking about static-x and soilwork over his head without bothering to explain who static-x are.

rahvin. (dead over hills)

Static - X... hm some nu metal band from the US, I think. One of those alternative metal bands. Soilwork is way more superior. http://www.static-x.com/

Damage Done runs laps around Reroute to Remain. Just look at the album names. Reroute to Remain? In flames certinly seems to be rerouting thier style to remain favorite among the fans. But with Dark Tranquillity, the Damage has been Done. End of story. No struggles there. DT owns, and that is the fact of the matter.

Damage Done. Without a doubt.

nbc is one of crapiest cds i have ever heard its so weak i prefer predators!!

 

[depraved]

the new opeth rocks, i think that will take the cd of the year, sorry D:, but i definetly think DD > r2r

Come on, asking that in the Dark Tranquillity forum is about as fair as punching someone in the face for walking by you...

Damage Done: Not only did they rule over IF in the album making process but they kicked their asses live in San Francisco.

 

[Opeth V]

Yes, RtR was a bitter disappointment in my eyes also. There are a few good songs off of it, but compared to past In Flames albums, it is just lacking. The guitar rifts are flat. The clean vocals are horrendously bad....

Seriously, the past In Flames albums kicked ass (whoracle, jester race, and colony anyone). RtR is just bland.

Definitively Damage Done
