Metal Reviews

Its of course going to sound like overproduced dogshit, lacking any semblance that the original possessed in terms of hostile songwriting. I'm going to enjoy giving it a scathing review, for a band that has been shit for a long time.

don't be so harsh steve

True that over-produced dogshit is a lot worse than the under-produced dogshit SLM usually indulges into.

The shitty deathcore/4th rate death metal he also indulges in is usually over-produced though too.

I'm excited to hear it. I believe i'll enjoy it.

I'd rather listen to the worst and most subpar Floridian death metal clones than indulge in the non-metal garbage you listen to and the communist far-left crap that Trapt listens to.

Everything he doesn't love is automatically the lowest form of shit. Such is the way of steve.

The lowest form of criticism coming from some old curmudgeon, who listens more to shitty unknown folk bands and a guy that thinks Krallice is black metal is hardly valid and even at the abysmal levels of credibility from either Stefan or Trapt none of them are manly enough to handle Internal Bleeding or The Partisan Turbine. I love you all

for serious? i could never be manly enough to tolerate the shit you listen to in order to sound kvlt.

And I couldn't tolerate the Napalm death ripoff garbage you listen too in order to fit in with the rest of your quasi-intellectual far-left crowd, ya dig , comrade? Besides, god forbid I listen to watered down open note chugging bands, I listen to a variety of crap as I'm sure you do with all of your Panopticon, Protest the Hero, Nails, and Weakling variety. It's ok though it's hard to be as cool as me

Quasi-intellectual? I'm in academia. If we're not intellectuals then who the fuck is lol? Who the fuck has ever listened to grind to fit in? Grind isn't exactly inviting. I forgot how original all the monotonous, stale death metal you listen to is.

I listen to far more than death metal kid, death metal is one of my favorite sub genres but I listen to it all. But that's beside the point, t

Man, Steve, this stopped being funny months ago. We get it, you have an opinion. That's nice and all. Funny thing is, so does everyone else and for the most part, the rest of us keep our bullshit like this in check (like I said, for the most part). There's no need to constantly attack anything you don't like as if it somehow makes you more musically inclined, just say you don't like it or don't bother commenting at all. It'll not kill you and it'll save on the near endless vitriol that you post on here.

Fuck, it's shit like this that makes me embarrassed to admit I like metal. Fills all the negative stereotypes and cliches about us being utter cunts. There's more to life that proving how br00tal you are due to the music you listen to. Jesus Raptorhunting Christ. And probably the most important thing: It's fucking boring.

tl;dr I'mma go listen to early jazz stuff.

I've just slowly learned to use a filter as to what stuff Steve says. He's a great, knowledgeable poster in a lot of ways, and he likes some stuff I consider trash which I laughingly think about when he gives Agalloch a '0' or whatever.

I could care less if you utilized your freedom as an individual, and voiced your opinion however vociferously and constantly. I could care less and if your bitching about it, why not leave the forum or better yet keep your mouth shut. I have every right to post freely as I contribute to this forum with topics, that have nothing to do with my own personal thoughts. Why do you think I hardly ever post in my own topics, by the way using a word like br00tal only proves how retarded you are and the lack of understanding you possess of this music. If you don't like my posts why don't you gouge your eyes out instead of whining like a bitch.

A post filled with venom and teenage, pigheaded arrogance, thus proving my point. There is no need for you to be so violently defensive here, nor as aggressive when commenting on a band you don't like or an opinion you disagree with. Not liking them is fine, equating them to be some lower being in a profanity filled rant while trying to come across as somehow superior makes you look like a cunt. It's boring, childish, and highlights how weak willed you are.

Whatever, you have the liberty and or lack thereof to post as you want, I repeat instead of failing miserably to "be the better poster", just keep your mouth shut and let me exercise my right.

Clip of new Mastodon song.

Sounds pretty badass. I can't wait.

I hope this clip means the new album will be prog metal rather than prog rock. I did love the last one but their metal stuff is also great so I hope this new album will be more metal.
