Nah, I don't want to have a double standard. Since I don't like it when mods abuse their power.

Why would you even begin to compare RATM to Black Metal? Completely different styles and messages.

Black Metal is quite melodic in most cases actually, despite its extreme nature.

You need to listen to more black metal then. Specifically Folk Black Metal like Windir. They are melodic.

And as for RATM having no talent well they did help boost the nu-metal movement, which IMO the only good nu-metal bands are the originals like RATM, Faith No More, etc.

douche bag, i mean 'the unfan'. you are close minded, retarded, and don't make any points... you just disagree (ie your logo 'your favorite band sucks'). your job is "a bum" so i can assume you are angry at the world. you interject you opinion into everything as opposed to trying to take a unbiased view towards something.

now let me play you

Like even though you have strong beliefs that this band sucks, it doesn't prevent your opinion from being completely wrong and worthless.

It is composed noise... just like jimi hendrix 'bombs' in the national anthem... or was that just trash noise too?

If by bland and boring you mean its a new sound that nobody has ever done before and most people cannot even reproduce... then ya sure ill agree with you.

Cmon its not my fault you didnt make it into/through college. If you actually knew what you were talking about I would be inclined to explain the people I am talking about.

I never claimed that, I just dont like cops. If anything it sounds like your angry, upset, argumentative, stick up your ass self could use a puff, it will lighten you up man. Besides, I'd rather be a pothead than some dip**** like yourself any day.

Your so cool too! You said exactly what i said not to... you rebel you, your always using that big brain of yours to come up with something really intelligent to say.

Don't let him drive you crazy, because that would just be giving the douchebag what he wants.

My greatness is so unmatched that even people who act like they hate me try to imitate it. How cute.
