Too bad, I was expecting more from this guys, anyway I think it's gonna be hard to beat The Haunted Made Me Do It album.

I agree. The Haunted Made Me Do It is one of my all-time favorite albums, ever.

what is it with Metalheads :?: do you guys hate the process of seing your bands changing :?:

the new Haunted album is, by far, my favourite of theirs... kick ass metal with a hardcore edge, good shouting voice & great guitar hooks... what else you need ? :D

don't trust the hype, just give it a shot ! :mrgreen:

That's exactly why I'm not going to listen to it. Hardcore makes my blood boil.

Agreed. If I wanted hardcore, I'd listen to hardcore. I don't like it polluting my metal. Besides, hardcore hasn't had an edge since 1994.

you cannot be more wrong ! :(

just look at what is happening right now in the USA... a new wave of metal just came out of the hardcore scene with bands such as Uneath, Killswithch Engage, Atreyu etc... all that started about ten years ago with bands like Mourning Again or Earth Crisis... :P

you have the right to dislike hardcore music but you cannot deny the facts... :twisted: hardcore & metal are the same family, they feed from one another all the time (see Fear Factory, Anthrax, Machine Head, Slipknot and many more...) :!:

All the bands you mention suck, specially Atreyu; you simply can't use the word Metal and Atreyu in the same sentence, it's a fuckin' insult, those possers should die, they're typical Hot Topic crap.

The only worthy bands are Fear Factory (becasue of their old stuff) and Anthrax.

And also I hate Metal and Hardcore comparisons, I see Hardcore closer to Punk than to Metal.

you can think those bands suck but you canot forbid me to use Atreyu & Metal in the same sentence... see : ATREYU HAS DONE ONE OF THE BEST METAL ALBUMS OF 2004 :P (& i really mean it !)

but i will have to agree on your comparison hardcore/punk for most of the hXc scene... great bands such as Refused, Sick Of It All, Snapcase have very little to do with metal not to say nothing...

one thing you forgot though, since Agnostic Front first introduced metal guitars on their "Cause for Alarm" album (that would be 1986 !) Metal & Hardcore scenes slowly became very intricate (for the worst when it comes to "nu metal".

now, in 2004, hardcore bands from germany (Caliban, Heaven Shall Burn) or the US (ATREYU !!! Unearth, Avenged Sevenfold) while keeping the spirit hardcore (more on lyrical content than anything else) play plain extreme Metal would you like it or not !

cheers & long live to Metal !

You saying Avenged Sevenfold plays extreme metal has to be the funniest thing I've read all day. And everyband you've mentioned has made me want to shit.

Yes, hardcore with metal might be relevant, but all the bands you just named seem to make shitty hardcore and call it metal. But I guess that is the essence of this whole thing.

No!! For once I agree with you!! The members of Atreyu should be forced to dig their own graves and then blow their frickin' brains out!!

You are what you listen to. You listen to trash, that's what you are: trash.

... you came right where i didn't want to go... you blackmetalheads are way to close-minded even to accept someone has a different opinion than yours... even when i say i hate black metal but understand and respect those who enjoy it your attacking me ! you don't even know me !!!

so, yes !, it's just music... and if music is soooo important that you think you have to fight for it all the time with such hatred, i suggest you to GET A LIFE !!!

peace man !

:twisted: right now i'm listening to the last Dillinger Escape Plan lp, is that enough of a metal band for you ? :P

i'm not christian, never was, never will be...

i'm buddhist, vegetarian, pot-head & music maniac... i just think a positive attitude is what the world needs & i don't see that coming from black metal... but if anyone knows a positive black metal band, i'd be happy to take a closer look at it...

well, i came here to share my liskes & dislikes not to spread or receive hatred... so, PEACE EVERYBODY... :D

:evil: cheers & long live metal ! :twisted:
