Gemmill 44109 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Why are you trying to divert attention to me you utter nancy boy! It's their, not there by the way. And it's to each their own, not each to their own. God you're an IMBECILE! Fuck off! Btw, wasn't the last band you saw Erasure?

TheInspiration 1 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 You're right, there are hundreds of different subgenre's, some of which are similar but many of which are so different they have little in common. And the level of creativity, technical ability, vocals and the like is great, but to the unenlightened like Gemmill/Renton they think all metal is thrash metal or "cock rock" type stuff. But each to their own! It's not so much that I think it's all thrash metal or cock rock, just that it's all noisy shit. I hate the fact it is so hackneyed and cliched. The guitars are used to ridiculous excess, killing the melody in the process, and the lyrics are banal and almost always stereotyped (can't think of a single good lyrical song). Then there's the utterly ridiculous 'look' that accompanies it. Ironically, metal fans also tend to be hugely arrogant about the value their music has, which is close to zero for most people. And before anyone starts, I do not rate goth stuff now either, it's equally bollocks! That is ridiculous. A truly uninformed comment. There are a lot of shit metal bands that do things badly, but thats the same for any genre of music. When metal is done well not only is it melodic, but some of the most amazingly technical music you'll get. Dismissing metal as having 'zero value' and 'stereotyped' is poor IMO. Ridiculous. Really? OK, the melody is a moot point, if you like it, that's up to you. But I think we can be more objective on the banality of the lyrics of these bands. Why don't you point me in the direction of a Metallica song that has deep and meaningful lyrics then? I mean, even the names of metal bands tend to be stereotyped, I mean Metallica ffs. Iron Maiden. Slayer. Poison etc. I know I know very little about the genre now, especially how it has progressed over the last 10 years (although a lot of my friends tried to convince me it was quality in the 80s and 90s, none of them are really into it now), so point me to some stuff which isn't about drug taking, war, violence, shagging, or the Occult etc and maybe I'll think differently. Poison aren't even metal. Also Iron Maiden's lyrics generally aren't the sort you expect from a band with such a name - they just thought it was a cool name, and it's a song by them, but again it's hardly serious. As for the Metallica song with deep and meaningful lyrics, I could point you to many a song, but for now you can do with Fade To Black, One, Master Of Puppets and The Unforgiven. So One is about war and Master Of Puppets is about drugs, but you asked for deep and meaningful so you've got it. You're kind of contradicting yourself by requesting Metal with deep and meaningful lyrics, but nothing to do with war and drugs, which can be issues in deep and meaningful music. Master Of Puppets is not about how awesome drugs are, more how they become the "master" of someone, hence the metaphorical title. Now for the "stuff which isn't about drug taking, war, violence, shagging, or the Occult etc", then there's always a sub-genre called Power Metal, which is generally very lighthearted. Often the likes of Lord Of The Rings comes into the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's thrash metal I have the real problem with, as I like some of the bands from some of the other 'softer' sub-genres. All these bands are officially shit and anyone who likes them should be, or has been, labotomised: Acid Reign Agent Steel Am I Blood Annihilator Anthrax Artillery Atrophy (USA) Believer Blind Guardian (old) Blind Illusion Coroner Celtic Frost Cynic (Demos Only) Dark Angel Darkane Dead Horse Death Angel Deathchain Defleshed (Sweden) Demonoid Destroyer 666 Destruction Dew-Scented Dirty Rotten Imbeciles Divine Decay Epidemic Exhorder Exodus Exciter Flotsam and Jetsam Forbidden Gama Bomb GWAR The Haunted Heathen (USA) Helstar (USA) Hermética Hirax Hobbs' Angel of Death Holy Moses Iced Earth Infernäl Mäjesty Kreator Kublai Khan Laaz Rockit Lawnmower Deth Living Death Lunatics Without Skateboards Inc.

Guest Patrokles Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Perhaps the most nerd-tastic band are the Advantage, who make cover versions of NES game soundtracks, post-rock style. And are actually very good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
