You could cheat and wear earplugs. As long as the gods of metal glory don't catch you, you'll be alright. You'll miss out on the high end definition that only a tweeter blasting at 200db can provide though ;(

Cannibal Corpse seem to always put on a good show. I saw them a couple months ago. I want to hear more about Psycroptic though

Ya I agree with you. If your going to write a band down at least know it's spelt right.

I don't want to continue a dead argument, so read this in the lightest possible way...

I don't.... and I still don't like CoB. Look at my profile, they're all popular bands in terms of their genre. Plus I listen to loads of Power Metal. Hardly underground tr00 kvlt stuff...

And there are reason's beyond popularity that can make people dislike a band. People who dislike a band cause they become popular are lame and I agree with you in that sense. Its only when the band play for the mainstream fans when they get truely gay and sell outy.

But I've never liked Bodom, so if you accuse me of not liking their latest efforts due to popularity or something then you'd be wrong. I've never even heard Are You Dead Yet (newest album?). I've mainly heard Hatebreeder stuff and its poor in my opinion.

Having a so extreme and radical opinion about a band is just showing how stereotipical your opinions are. You can say that you dont like CoB for this or for that. But never say that they are gay on all points of viem cause thats totally false. These guys have a great sound.

And I aint just talking to the guy that I quoted. I'm talking to all of you guys.
A band cannot be a 100% bad, face it. These guys have great songs, they use their guitars very well and put all the instruments together to make a whole band.

And btw they dont play flying v, they play Rhodes.

and there is some great stuff that comes from finland, dont be to quick to judge

Children of Bodom ARE shit. Alexi Laiho is a bloody thief who can't write his own riffs or solos so he steals from other people. I don't even know how many riffs they've taken from Dissection, and the solo from Hate Crew Deathroll is almost exactly the same as the one from Hangar 18, only I think it's taken down an octave. What the hell is so unique about him anyway? All he does is drink and party, and as a result, he sucks at writing music. Plus there are a million other guitarists/bands that sound exactly the same. Know why people hate Kalmah? Because they might as well be listening to Children of Bodom, because the two bands sound the same. Same goes for Norther. If you're going to sit here and praise someone as unique and innovative, you might as well find someone who actually IS unique and innovative.

I used to think Children of Bodom were really good and unique and awesome, but then I turned 12 and realized what a real innovative and awesome guitar player is like.

Images and Words. Is there a Dream Theater album that is way better than Images and Words? The other two Dream Theater albums I have (Scenes from a Memory and Octavarium) have some really bad tracks and I prefer Images and Words over them two.

Well technically A Change of Seasons is.. but thats only because A Change of Seasons > Everything, by Dream Theater or not.
But its only an EP, and only one song.

I'd say that Awake is better, but I don't want to cause Images and Words has Metropolis and Learning To Live.

I came to you before Metal Hell, i came in chains. I was blinded by Nu-metal/Metalcore.In ways i still am but so much less so i can hear what good music is.
My favorite bands at the moment are: (some are still nu-metal/metalcore)
Metallica
Megadeth
Trivium
Pantera
System of a down
Buckethead
Children of Bodom
Slayer
Bullet for my valentine
Pandora
Deicide
Iron Maiden
Canibal corpse
Fear Factory
Mastadon
Lamb of God
Year of desolation

In my opinion Awake is better than I&W, but they are both generally considered the best.

Really man, COB aren't that good of a band to most of us, we just don't like them. You obviously do, so go listen to them if you really want to, no one's gonna stop you.

And you should really think of broadening your music tastes, since all you fucking listen to is power metal. You're calling Cannibal Corpse shitbags when they're basically the grandfathers of death metal?

they are called grindcore or even goregrind, not death metal.

Cannibal Corpse? Grindcore? I almost dropped my bubbler I was laughing so hard when you said that. CC are death metal through and through.

Death (the band) is the grandfathers of death metal.

Naw, neither are. I'm not sure who the grandfather is. Just like Venom is the grandfather of Black metal, I'd have to say Possessed *might* qualify for DM.

Yeah.

It must be noted that grandfathers of a genre are usually not part of the genre, e.g. Venom isn't black metal, and Slayer are not death metal, though they did move in the direction of that from the previously established norm.

Thank Satan, those guys were a horribly overrated mistake. Metal Hammer gave theid ebut EP an 11 out of 10, that's the only time an album has ever receieved that score in the mag, so I could auto-fucking-matically tell they were headed nowhere. If Metal Hammer gives you more than an 8 in your review, you know you're a shitty metal band destined to go nowhere.

Sorry to double post, but I personally *kinda* like a couple of their albums, though I haven't listened to them in about a year. Let me stay in the "neutral" category.

Correct :D

Though bands like Cannibal Corpse and Deicide are certainly pioneers of the modern Death Metal sound =).

Yeah. Though CC would never qualify as being original or innovative in my mind. To me they're just generic death metal. Though, if DM's your thing, I suppose that's not a problem. After all, they're the Darkthrone of death metal.

About Cannibal Corpse... why does everybody love Kill? Even for 1996's standards, it's nothing new. Even for 1990's standards, it's very fast and heavy, but not new. Why does everybody like that CD so much?

Seriously though. They haven't done anything new since Bloodthirst. Also, that was about the time Corpsegrinder started taking himself and the band seriously. What the fuck? Even Darkthrone have done something new since then. Don't believe me? Listen to A Blaze in the Northern Sky then listen to The Cult Is Alive. Their new album might suck monkey balls, but it's still something different. Apart from getting faster and with a better production, CC have done nothing new. The only difference between them and Darkthrone is that Darkthrone admit they're a joke, and Cannibal Corpse doesn't.

I used to like Cannibal Corpse for being funny. Now I hate them because they're horribly overrated.

I only liked "Make Them Suffer", it was cachy and had a funny video.

Corpsegrinder needs a serious reality check, they're isn't a serious thing about the band.

Yeah. I don't know why he started writing serious or even semi-serious lyrics and tryed to amp up their image as a "br00tal death metal band". He DOES need a reality check.

I only laugh when I watch their concerts. And that was still pre-2000. And for one of the few times I'll venerate Barnes, but on The Bleeding, his voice just SOUNDED funny. Not weird funny, but laugh out loud funny. George's voice just doesn't compare in the funneh department.

enough of this children of bodom jackoffery. arguing about them is almost as bad as listening to them. youre just giving them attention. if you dont like them dont bother with them. it just spreads them around more so more people listen to them and you hear them more.

on a sexy sidenote, i just completed my agoraphobic nosebleed discography.

I don't think Cannibal Corpse take themselves seriously, or need a reality check.

They're just doing what it takes to get more kids to listen to them ;D

I won't let that effect my cannibal corpse experience, I still think they're pretty decent.
