Queen of Liars Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Does Avril Lavigne count? Repeating the same thing over and over will not make it funnier, wittier or better in any other way, especially if it's a fail troll to begin with. Doesn't do much for how others view you either.

Rahkshi Kal Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I didn't find it TOO horrible. I do think Metallica should've saved a lot of the instrumental parts for their own music (Mistress Dread sounds like early Metallica), but I stick by with what I said before. It's interesting to hear Reed's vocals on this type of music. Quote "Be quiet! Do you wanna wake the whole planet?!" "...I do." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pls respond Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 because it was an awful album? that's pretty much grounds to not like something. granted i've never been much of a metallica fan anyway but even by their standards it sucked.

Also, I love it when bands experiment with their sound. Keeps them from becoming stale and boring, IMHO.

Keeps them from becoming stale and boring, IMHO.i'm all for bands experimenting. just as long as it still sounds good. death magnetic failed there for me. How?it felt like they were trying to bring back their "classic" sound, which would be good except it lacked that spark that the old albums had. it felt like imitation metallica as opposed to the actual thing.

pls respond Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 that really wasn't the main problem to me, but that was an issue. alsoooooo anyone here love After the Burial as much as i do?

Just look at how much attention they tried to get off the album. And not to mention, many of the songs used formula of 80s Metallica songs.

Hanako Herupa Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 What...no Bionic Jive? Yes, I know it's rap metal, but it holds a certain charm and is honestly the best metal band I have heard. Armageddon Through Your Speakers is one of my favorite albums, I know. Apparently Passion over Politics is even harder than Armageddon Through Your Speakers.

pls respond Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 just listened to them it was kind of gross, no offense they've got skill and all but it's just not my cup of tea also i'd probably classify it as more of a rap rock album than rap metal, it didn't sound like it was very metal-ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanako Herupa Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Understandable, personally I would throw Rage Against The Machine in the Rap Rock genre. I mean which song did you listen to, cause I tried to classify "I Shot Lucifer" as rap rock myself, but honestly it sounds too metal to me. Anyways my knowledge of Metal only really scratches the surface, I originally I hated it, thought it was the worst genre, but after a couple listens the genre grew on me thanks to my best friend. Apparently Soil is like five different types of metal and I've listened to only one nonpoint song, which apparently qualifies as alternative metal. Any good bands beside the obvious choices?

pls respond Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 well there's a little variation but for the most part yeah. also Hetfield really isn't on it that much, he probably sings the most on The View.

~Takava Nirhii~ Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I'm excited for new Cynic. From what I've heard, it sounds pretty good. Also, I'm kinda excited for the new Megadeth.

Xinlo Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I'm listening through Th1rt3en right now, and it's pretty sweet. The only bad bit I've discovered so far is "Fast Lane", which is basically a rehash of "502" and "1,320" with waaaay cheesier lyrics. "We The People" was great, probably my favourite, and the remake of "New World Order" is pretty cool. Sudden Death was changed a bit, so it's slightly better, but luckily the album is not all like that. The only one that is comparable (but better) is "Never Dead" which was already released.

pls respond Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 i feel like cheesy lyrics should be expected from Megadeth by now. don't get me wrong, i enjoy them when i'm in the mood but dear god is Mustaine an awful lyricist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xinlo Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Once again I'll have to disagree with you. Call me a Megadeth fanboy, but I love the majority of Dave's lyrics. Everyone makes bad songs sometimes, or bits that don't quite fit, but he's got lots of originality and only recently I feel he's been writing some weaker songs. I still enjoy them though. And after 14 albums the guy's gotta' be running a bit dry, so I can't blame him. Quote The Toa's Hideout is once again open for business!
