With reference to point no. 9 of your post... I always found the term "Viking Metal" to be one of the more hilarious of the metal subgenre titles...

well i for one enjoy their music and i don't think they "destroy their instruments on stage". although that's purely an opinion, i think they are very proficient in their instruments.

as for the lyrics, i agree it's just a bunch of bull****, but tbh, the lyrics are too unintelligeble to really be up in arms over anyway.

I just picture ancient vikings with guitars... and the mental image kinda makes me giggle... or I really do need more sleep....

1. Mastodon - They are as heavy as a death metal band with all the musical technicallity as Pink Floyd.
2. Megadeth - Metallica are better, Megadeth on the other hand I like more (mainly because Megadeth didn't make St. Anger heh heh heh).
3. Metallica - Two of their albums (Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning) are albums I can listen to every track on and not complain.
4. Slipknot - One of the more hated bands in the history of rock, I still like them, from their brutal nu-metalish days to their maturing, more traditional metal days now.
5. Slayer - Simply the heaviest band of all time. Nuff said.
6. Queens of the Stone Age - They have hypnotic riffs, lyrics and solos. For such a diverse band they have such a likeable repertoire.
7. Foo Fighters - Dave Grohl is a ****ing genius, let it be known.
8. Guns n' Roses - Sure, Chinese Democracy wasn't all that it was hyped up to be. But that would be a little hard for it to do since it was the most hyped album of all time!
9. Suicidal Tendancies - Cyko Myko = GOD.
10. Dethklok - No kidding. For a cartoon band composed of two fictional scandinavians and three smartass yanks they ****ing rule.

Oh, I do enjoy Cannibal Corpse's music, but I don't think they deserve as big of a name in metal as they have

Antonio · 09-08-2009, 09:31 AM

oh ok, from what i read it seemed like you had it out for them haha.

Seragon Ripper · 09-08-2009, 09:37 AM

No, I just blatantly pointed their flaws out. And yes, Black Sabbath is New Blues.......they have a bluesy approach on everything, listen closely to their music

QOTSA and The Foo Fighters are barely Metal bands. AND METALLICA IS NOT BETTER THAN MEGADETH

Oh and Guns aren't a metal band either.
