It's not bad the vocals got on my nerves at times.

Ok, debate: Is Metallica still relevant? Or Megadeth, for that matter?

Re: The metal thread.
I like metallica older stuff there newer stuff is crap and i love megadeth and both have contributed alot to metal so i'd say they are relevant to metal.FrigidSymphony wrote:Yeah we're working on that...redunderthebed wrote:It's not bad the vocals got on my nerves at times.

Of course it is there is heaps of thrash bands heaps of metal heads still listen to it.FrigidSymphony wrote:Is thrash as a genre still relevant?

Re: The metal thread.
But the genre hasn't progressed in 15 years. Is it STILL relevant today??

Re: The metal thread.
To the growth and development of the metal scene today. It seems to me that new thrash bands are just wishing they were playing 20 years ago. Is anyone bringing anything worthwhile to the scene?

Why one has to be musically close-minded, I don't know. Counting Crows are great, I love the lyrics, and the guy has great vocal lines.

There's good music across all genres, you just seem to be missing out on it in favor of listening to lowest-common-denominator radio douchebaggery.

I just find it amusing that I don't even consider myself to be a metal head but have far more metal in my list (and far more metal cred) than you do.
Oh, and the Paramore chick is ok. But there are better choices, vocally and especially musically. Stolen Babies, Made Out of Babies, Battle of Mice, and Lacuna Coil, to name a quick few.

Re: Family, obligation and rituals
I like all of those as well. I'm not listening to "lowest-common-denominator" shit, I'm trying to find some value in everything. I listen to a LOT of metal, I'm just trying to do more. I'm not letting myself be fed record label garbage, I'm trying to find good stuff to extract musical value from.JasonK wrote:Nobody said you have to stick to one genre.

Oh and btw, the newest Lacuna Coil album is like a boring version of Paramore. It's basically pop.

I haven't heard it at all, but that doesn't surprise me much.
Have you heard Battle of Mice?
So good.
And unfortunately, not everything has value. Some of it really just is corporate bullshit.

Re: Family, obligation and rituals
It's not really song-oriented, but it's very fresh. I'd have to listen to an entire album though, to get the full impact, I imagine, and right now I'm too busy getting through Ki, Heaven & Hell and the new Hammers of Misfortune.
Btw I'm moving these last posts into the metal thread in the music section.
