Pantera Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) I enjoy everything Metallica's done except Kill 'Em All and Lulu lol. And Megadeth is better, and I enjoy literally everything they've done. Aso, Pantera, how can you say "especially the first 3 albums" when that doesn't include Rust In Peace?I couldn't really name the first 3 albums, so I didn't really know!Death Magnetic was okay, compared to the they put out in the '90s.Lulu starting to grow on me. God have mercy on my soul...-Malchior-: I agree. Ever listen to Overkill and Exodus? (I should give Testament a try!) However, I never found Anthrax to be Thrash. They're just kinda... boring to me. It sounds kind of like Quiet Riot mixed in with a bit of Slayer.Valenti: You like Metallica's later work? You are banished. I CAST YOU OUT!JK. :PI also hate how Lars Ulrich (and Metallica in general) on That Metal Show (VH1 Classic, FTW!) seem to say to their HARDCORE FANS: "Nah, we don't care about hate."That's how you improve. You let hate engulf you to make more AGRESSIVE stuff.I say a comment on Lulu on [nope] that said: "This was a test of loyalty for Metallica fans."He/she is right. I'm done with Metallica. I guess you COULD say I kind of grew out of it. That's plays A part in me not liking them anymore.AND! And I also HATE IT whenever they say something like: "Yeah, this is like Master Of Puppets (album, not song) mixed with Lou Reed."THAT WAS THE WORST LIE SINCE SANTA! Whoops! Sorry, kids!But no, I was like "Lou Reed? Never heaard of him. Hope he's good!"THEN I found out that he said since one of his albums, all of his fans left. Hes' just doing it for fun now.HOW STUPID ARE YOU, OLD MAN?The Rage is over.Seeya. Edited April 5, 2012 by Makaru Removed. Quote Led Zeppelin? Yes.

Pantera Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm pessimistic, so I can be suprised when something good happens.I rather fight for Heavy Metal than fight for Rights or religion. Music means that much to me. Well, Heavy Metal does.Why would I wanna be in a positive light? Quote Led Zeppelin? Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Man Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) Or you could, y'know, try being more objective instead of automatically saying an entire genre "sucks" simply because you don't like the artists from it you've heard. Quite frankly, that's just kind of ignorant.Also might want to think about getting your priorities straight.Why would I wanna be in a positive light?I can guarantee, in a few years you'll regret having that kind of attitude.

pls respond Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) yeah because music is definitely more important than civil libertiesthis "hardcore" attitude you have is so forced it's honestly painful.music is cool and all but it's a little lame to be super srs about it Edited April 5, 2012 by Idunnolol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantera Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm not trying to be Hardcore. I think.But yeah, I see wht your saying.

pls respond Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) i'd say they're still thrash, just a less heavy form of it. their middle-era stuff was definitely less thrashy though (not that i don't love "Only") Edited April 5, 2012 by Idunnolol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen of Liars Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Except that Anthrax were a ton more influential than Exodus. If the Big Four was based on quality, Metallica shouldn't be anywhere near it... I'm pretty sure Anthrax was Thrash back in the day. Sure, they always had that Groove Metal somewhere in the mix, and I'd say Worship Music is more Groove than Thrash (still a brilliant album), but look at Among The Living: it's pretty much pure ThrashPantera, sure, go for the Metal Hammer. I don't know why I don't have a subscription even though I've been getting almost every issue for the past 3-4 years. Quote ___ ___ ___ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pls respond Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Malchior have you checked out Decibel mag? they're a little harder to find on shelves by way of being pretty underground but they're one of the best metal publications imo, since they cover almost every subgenre (even including a little hardcore here and there). every issue also comes with a flexi disc which is a cool little bonusalso if any band had to be added into the big four in place of anthrax it would probably be Testament Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebrae Invictus Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Early Testament rules hard. The bass intro on Souls of Black is so fun to hear.

But Metal Hammer is good too, at least the UK version is. They do cover pretty much every subgenre, including Hardcore and heavier rock too. And there's some cool free stuff with it from time to time, like an official exclusive Machine Head vinyl from a few issues back or just free albums from new bands.

Pantera Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Anybody watch and/or like That Metal Show?You can watch it ONLY if you have VH1 Classic. (AWESOME CHANNLE!)Or by an Iphone or something...EDIT: I agree, Exodus should replace Anthrax. Testament is a little weird to me, but Overkill is pretty cool. Even though one of their songs rips riffs from about 4 other Thrash bands.The Big 4 is a little stupid if I think about it a bit.Anyone see the Metal Evolution series? I thought: "URSUM!" at first, but it is a little boring for me. I guess it's because it looks through the whole genre they're talking about. I think THE most boring episodes were The first 3 or so. The "Early Metal" episodes I think they were called. I mean, I already knew almost EVERYTHING about Early Metal. Edited April 6, 2012 by Pantera Quote Led Zeppelin? Yes.

Legolover-361 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 metal isn't all about energy by any means.I thought metal was supposed to be heavy and (generally) aggressive. Dream Theater's album Octavarium sounds just like progressive rock, and even the album's heaviest song, "Panic Attack", doesn't sound much heavier than an older Linkin Park song.

Pantera Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Hahaha, this thread should get entertaining as soon as Pantera posts again.-Teezy...I guess. I'm glad I entertain you. :PThat Metal Show for me is generally boring sometimes. Except when they had that Halloween episode 2 years ago (2010) with Phil Anselmo. He's pretty cool to me (even though he WAS a bad influence). VH1 Classic showing Deathcore and/or Grindcore?Get outta here! That wouldn't make sense.Besides, I like it more because I LOVE Led Zeppelin! OOPS! I said something non-Metal!Forgive me!Just in case anyone's wondering for some reason: I do think Pink Floyd is boring. Edited April 6, 2012 by Pantera Quote Led Zeppelin? Yes.
