Music: METAL!!! \m/

[Destiny]

hmmm... nope. Dream Theatre is ok, i might download more of their stuff later on.
When i listened to the first several seconds of Nightwish, i thought this was going to be sumthing i would really like, but then came the vocals lol. Honestly, i couldnt distinguish whether the vocalist was a woman with a manly voice or a man with a womanly voice; i couldnt really listen to the rest of the track after halfway. I'm not saying it's bad, i'd understand why people would enjoy listening to this. I probly just need more time to grow into these songs

[Cal_kashi]

Dont care too much for Metal but I REALLY like Atreyu, i even listen to them when i race, in fact i got to see them and God Forbid play this summer, that was awesome

[shadowmantis]

that's the thing, this music isn't something you start bobbing head to the moment you hear it. it grows on you, if you let it. i suggest you keep listening every now and then, you'll find a few songs that you like, and it'll grow from there.

unlike, let's say, linkin park. where you hear a song and lose your mind for about 2 weeks. then it gets boring [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

...FINE, FINE, I USED TO LIKE THEM *blushes*

[Destiny]

Well, ive grown to like Dream Theatre. I just woke up, and the first thing i put on was Season of Change. Nightwish has a ways to go
EDIT: Forever curse the day i get bored of Linkin Park

[shadowmantis]

'as i am', 'metropolis' and 'glass prison' are also nice songs. get 'erotomania' if you want mind boggling guitar shredding. think f-zero OST. and if you ever feel like melting into your chair, listen to 'lost without you'. if i could, i would marry john petrucci, only for that song.

[Destiny]

i just downloaded 'metropolis' and 'lost without u'. Metropolis i didnt really like that much, and i noticed 'lost without u' is one of those songs would drift you into another place; i like songs like these but this one didnt cut it as much as others i've heard. I still prefer Season of Change over these 2, but again, they i probly need to grow into them.

Fave bands:

All time is tied between Metallica & In Flames, others that are definately worth a shout:

Children of Bodom
Blind Guardian
Soilwork
Arch Enemy
Slayer
Megadeth
Nightwish
Tower
Vader
Acid Drinker (haha yes! Comical metal rules!)
Anthrax
Pantera (when Phil used to sing instead of assault everyone verbally lol)

The list goes on but I'll stop there.

Best concert: May 3rd 2004: As I Lay Dying, Killswitch Engage, & In Flames

Amazing concert, and I somehow survived. Also met/got signatures/got pics with: Jesper and Peter from In Flames!

Play guitar, 2 years, in band: http://morbidtheory.com

Note: if you try to preview clips from our last demo tis all good, but you may need to stop and press play again, why cause something messed up, and us being busy with gigs we don't feel like fixing it yet lol.

Honestly Destiny, no offense, but a person who says "Curse the day when I get bored of Linkin Park" has no right to call Dream Theater "rock". While I am desperately trying to accept that you call beautiful Tarja's voice "manly" (Nightwish's vocalist), since it's a matter of opinion, Dream Theater's genre is not. I am not a big fan of DT, but they are basically the fathers of Progressive Metal. Nowhere near rock at all. And you should try some of Nightwish's newer stuff, especially the newest album Once (coming out in June); much better than the old stuff.

[Destiny]

None taken, everyone has thir own tastes in music. I mainly like LP cos me and my best mate relates to them a lot.

[Uzumaki Naruto]

only reason i like lp is the way they are, and the way they play, eveytime i hear there song i wuold sit with my guitar and just play along with them

[shadowmantis]

lol, i don't mean to stir shit up, but did anyone notice that this post is dripping with hypocrisy?

I am going to say this one more time, all you people trying to pull in rap/hip-hop in this thread; get the HELL out. The next person who starts to discuss that in this thread will be banned. Yes, banned. This annoys me to no end and it is so incredibly fucking immature & discriminating to just step up here and scream 'OMG METAL SUXX0R' because we love it and you can go to hell.

eveytime i hear there song i wuold sit with my guitar and just play along with them

lol, you strum 3 open strings like them? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] listen to some jeff buckley for magical guitarness

yeah, i can't get over the fact that you dissed nightwish for bad vocals! IT'S EATING ME APART!!! anyway, if you really appreciate vocals more than the overal feeling and energy of the song, boot up kazza and type:

ambeon - cold metal
after forever - emphasis
the gathering - in motion #1

and a nice transition from linkin park to the metal music would be lacuna coil. i suggest you check 'senzafine' by them, since is the poppiest song they have. i'm sure you'll like them.

anyone like my ruin?

[Destiny]

not that i hate the songs, but the vocals are sumwhat distracting. Sorry if it offended u in any way, but thats just how i feel atm. I still hav to grow into them, so im not jumping to conclusions just yet...
I dunno, im drunk atm (my mate is passed out beside me), so i wont say much to make myself look like a fool...

Heavenly, dammit! HEAVENLY! If you get the chance, listen to Heavenly's new album "... Dust to Dust". It's got to be one of my all-time greatest musical experiences.

But nobody's ever heard of them! That I've talked to anyway.

[Terracosmo]

@shadowmantis: Yes, it does seem you are the only one who finds that response dripping with "hypocrisy". Would you care to elaborate this extremely perceptive opinion of yours?

Raven, I will try Heavenly. But only because it's you.

[Rek]

word on that before anything breaks out..

There is a MAJOR difference between two metal heads debating whether or not screaches or growls are better, or a rap-loving asshole and a clad in black, decent taste in music mother fucker arguing over genres....

So, remember, you may not linkin park, but at least it's a mite better than Queen Latifa. Now, friendly arguments, opinions, and jesting at certain bands is totally different than bashing the whole genre. So, please lets not blow this out of proportion.

Now, about playing guitar with lp... thats just fucktarded. ^.^

why, of course. you tell them it's immature & discriminating to say metal sucks, but you keep running your mouth on how rap is bad, and that they should go to hell. which is immature & discriminating.

Read my posts better before you start acting wise. I never said rap was bad. I did a comparison to what that Kakashi guy did (I think it was him), and saying "Go to hell" & "Rap-fags" respectively is purely an act of the same medicine and anger; not immaturity. And neither did I say that it's immature to think metal sucks, I think it's immature to do so IN A METAL THREAD WHERE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY LIKE THE MUSIC ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.
